Drinking water · reported to EPA

Water comes from Pleasant Hill PWS

Pleasant Hill PWS supplies Pleasant Hill: about 88% of residents live in its service area. Cass County Pwsd 5 serves another 12%. About 9% of homes are outside any mapped community water system, most likely on private wells, which EPA doesn’t regulate.

No health-based violations reported to EPA in the five years to October 2026, like 80% of the 5,012 systems serving 3,301–10,000 people.

Lead, 90th percentile0.0 ppb
