PFAS in drinking water

10× above our health benchmark

Amount found in the water 5 ng/L 0.005 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 Le Pin, on the same distribution network as Marly-la-Ville (HAMEAU DE VILLERON-ZI FOSSES). 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 Marly-la-Ville, the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) add up to 5 ng/L (0.005 µg/L) at the latest PFAS check on 11 March 2026. That's 10 times our 0.5 ng/L health benchmark, and above Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L. Sum of 20 PFAS: 6 ng/L (0.006 µg/L), below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). Sampled in Le Pin, on the same network. 6 checks since 14 January 2026: PFAS-4 from 1 ng/L to 5 ng/L, averaging 2.17 ng/L over 12 months. Falling on the main network.

Frequently asked questions

Is tap water in Marly-la-Ville safe to drink?

Yes. At the check on 7 April 2026, the tap water in Marly-la-Ville 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 Marly-la-Ville's drinking water?

The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 6 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at 6 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)

Does the water in Marly-la-Ville also meet the strictest limits in Europe?

No. The four most harmful PFAS add up to 5 ng/L. That is 1.25 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 Marly-la-Ville's tap water?

No, they are falling. On the main network, the PFAS-4 sum went from 2 ng/L (14 January 2026) to 1 ng/L (11 March 2026) across 6 quantified checks. These history statistics use laboratory-published sums only.

How hard is the water in Marly-la-Ville?

The water hardness in Marly-la-Ville is 28.7 °f (medium). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
