Bellport, NY · PFAS water testing

Is Bellport, NY water safe from PFAS?

Bellport sits over Long Island’s sole-source aquifer, where PFAS “forever chemicals” have turned up across Suffolk County. Your water provider tests at the wellhead — not at your tap, and not at all if you’re on a private well. Here’s what’s known locally, and how to find out what’s in your water.

How that compares to the limit
  • EPA 2024 federal limit: 4 parts per trillion (ppt) each for PFOA and PFOS — the strictest drinking-water limit the EPA has ever set.
  • New York State limit: 10 ppt each for PFOA and PFOS (set 2020).
  • For context: 4 ppt is about one drop in a thousand swimming pools — a level only a certified lab can measure. Wellhead averages can also hide higher readings at an individual tap.

Public-system results are an average at the source. The only way to know what reaches your kitchen tap — or your private well, which no utility tests — is to test your own water.
