PFAS in drinking water

12× above our health benchmark

Amount found in the water 6 ng/L 0.006 µg/L · the 4 most harmful PFAS (PFAS-4)
Our health benchmark 0.5 ng/L

0.5 ng/L is our benchmark, not an official limit. Same EFSA method as Sweden, Denmark and the Netherlands, but stricter. It's a yearly average, compared here with the latest check.

Sample taken in Annet-sur-Marne, on the same distribution network as Lésigny (LESIGNY A). The health authority samples one tap per network; a network carries the same treated water everywhere.

More about this result

The US also limits PFOA and PFOS to 4 ng/L each, per substance.

Substances below the detection limit count as 0, so the real total may be higher.

One of these four, PFOA, is classified as causing cancer in humans by the WHO's cancer research agency (IARC).

In Lésigny, the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) add up to 6 ng/L (0.006 µg/L) at the latest PFAS check on 8 July 2026. That's 12 times our 0.5 ng/L health benchmark, and above Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L. Sum of 20 PFAS: 25 ng/L (0.025 µg/L), below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). Sampled in Annet-sur-Marne, on the same network. 13 checks since 14 January 2026: PFAS-4 up to 6 ng/L, sometimes below the detection limit, averaging 2.83 ng/L over 12 months. Rising on the main network. Source: Hub'eau, Qualité de l'eau potable (Ministère de la Santé / OFB / BRGM).

PFAS over time in Lésigny

24 PFAS checks since 2 April 2025, from the published measurements. Samples from 4 communes on the same network: it's the same water, so each one applies to Lésigny. Samples come from 2 distribution networks. The trend refers to the network “LESIGNY A”.

“Calculated”: PFAS-4 worked out from the four substances in the same sample. The chart, averages and trends use lab-published sums only.

Frequently asked questions

Is tap water in Lésigny safe to drink?

Yes. At the check on 27 July 2026, the tap water in Lésigny was within every limit tested. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux exigences de qualité en vigueur pour l'ensemble des paramètres mesurés.”

How high are PFAS levels in Lésigny's drinking water?

The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 25 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at 25 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)

Does the water in Lésigny also meet the strictest limits in Europe?

No. The four most harmful PFAS add up to 6 ng/L. That is 1.5 times Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L, in force since 2026. Germany will set a similar one in 2028. The water still passes the current EU legal limit (100 ng/L for the total of 20 PFAS).

Are PFAS levels rising in Lésigny's tap water?

Yes. On the main network, the PFAS-4 sum rose from 2 ng/L (14 January 2026) to 5 ng/L (8 July 2026) across 12 quantified checks. pfasnearme's benchmark is 0.5 ng/L as an annual mean. These history statistics use laboratory-published sums only.

How hard is the water in Lésigny?

The water hardness in Lésigny is 28.2 °f (medium). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
