PFAS in Longvic's tap water: under 2.5 ng/L, none of the four main PFAS detected
Last PFAS check: · Source: Hub'eau
PFAS in drinking water
None of the 4 most harmful PFAS detected
The lab sees nothing below 2.5 ng/L, 5 times our benchmark of 0.5 ng/L. Water above our benchmark would pass this check unnoticed.
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 Dijon, on the same distribution network as Longvic (DIJON METROPOLE, LONGVIC-RTE DE DIJON). 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.
The lab detects each of the four substances from 0.5 to 1 ng/L upward. None reached that limit, so their total is below 2.5 ng/L rather than zero.

In Longvic, none of the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) was detected at the latest PFAS check on 7 July 2026. The total is below 2.5 ng/L, the sum of the detection limits and 5 times our 0.5 ng/L benchmark. Sum of 20 PFAS: 2.7 ng/L (0.0027 µg/L), below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). Sampled in Dijon, on the same network. 7 checks since 8 October 2025: PFAS-4 up to 1.3 ng/L, sometimes below the detection limit.

PFAS over time in Longvic
8 PFAS checks since 14 April 2025, from the published measurements. Samples from 2 communes on the same network: it's the same water, so each one applies to Longvic. Samples come from 2 distribution networks. The trend refers to the network “DIJON METROPOLE, LONGVIC-RTE DE DIJON”.
“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 Longvic safe to drink?
Yes. At the check on 7 July 2026, the tap water in Longvic 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 Longvic's drinking water?
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 2.7 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at 3 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Longvic also meet the strictest limits in Europe?
As far as this check can tell, yes. None of the four compounds was quantified, so their total is below 2.5 ng/L, the sum of the laboratory's detection limits, and under Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L in force since 2026.
Are PFAS levels rising in Longvic's tap water?
No. Since 14 April 2025, 7 checks have been published; on the main network the PFAS-4 sum stayed below the laboratory's detection limit every time. These history statistics use laboratory-published sums only.
How hard is the water in Longvic?
The water hardness in Longvic is 30.1 °f (hard). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
Where does this data come from?
