Drinking water · reported to EPA

Water comes from Town of Snow Hill water system

The Town of Snow Hill water system supplies Snow Hill: about 90% of residents live in its service area. Greene Co Regional Water Syst serves another 10%. About 5% of homes are outside any mapped community water system, most likely on private wells, which EPA doesn’t regulate. It buys treated surface water (EPA lists Greene Co Regional Water Syst as seller) and serves 2,657 people in all.

No health-based violations reported to EPA in the five years to October 2026, like 78% of the 7,966 systems serving 1,001–3,300 people.

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

The latest lead result on file, the 90th percentile of homes sampled in Jan 2026–Dec 2028, 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.

The system’s full record: EPA ECHO report
