Water comes from San Gabriel Valley Wc - Fontana water system
The San Gabriel Valley Wc - Fontana water system supplies Fontana: about 86% of residents live in its service area. Cucamonga Valley Water District serves another 6%. West Valley Water District serves another 5%. It draws surface water (EPA lists Cucamonga Valley Water District as seller) and serves 237,700 people in all.
No health-based violations reported to EPA in the five years to October 2026, like 86% of the 332 systems serving 100,001–250,000 people.
The latest lead result on file, the 90th percentile of homes sampled in Jan 2022–Dec 2024, was 0.0 ppb, below the 15 ppb action level that applied. Results below detection are reported as 0, so 0 doesn’t mean no lead at any tap.
