Water comes from Marion-Arcadia-Sodus Csa water system
The Marion-Arcadia-Sodus Csa water system supplies Marion: about 73% of residents live in its service area. About 27% 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 Newark Village and Sodus Village and Walworth WD #1 and Sodus-Huron-Wolcott-Butler Csa and Palmyra-Macedon-Walworth Csa as sellers) and serves 6,303 people in all.
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.
The latest lead result on file, the 90th percentile of homes sampled in Jan 2021–Dec 2023, was 1.0 ppb, below the 15 ppb action level that applied. That’s lower than 57% of similar systems’ latest results.
