Drinking water quality in Perrigny-lès-Dijon
PFAS in drinking water
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 0.03 µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 30 % of the limit. (22 September 2025)
The four most harmful PFAS add up to 0.014 µg/L. That is 3.5 times the health limit of 0.004 µg/L that Sweden made law in 2026. Germany will set a similar limit in 2028.
One of these four, PFOA, is classified as causing cancer in humans by the WHO's cancer research agency (IARC).
Substances too small to measure count as 0, so the real total may be higher.
