Drinking water · reported to EPA

Water comes from Gannett Homeowners Assn water system

The Gannett Homeowners Assn water system supplies Gannett: about 97% of residents live in its service area. About 3% of homes are outside any mapped community water system, most likely on private wells, which EPA doesn’t regulate. It draws ground water and serves 60 people in all.

No health-based violations reported to EPA in the five years to October 2026, like 78% of the 11,392 systems serving <=100 people.

Lead, 90th percentile0.0 ppb
015 ppb action level20

The latest lead result on file, the 90th percentile of homes sampled in Jul–Dec 2025, was 0.0 ppb, below the 15 ppb action level that applied. The highest in five years was 25.0 ppb. Results below detection are reported as 0, so 0 doesn’t mean no lead at any tap.
