Columbia water quality resources for customers

COLUMBIA, MO (September 26, 2016) - The annual switching of disinfection methods of Columbia's water has raised questions about the quality of the water. A letter from the Missouri Department of Natural Resources verifies the community’s water meets the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act.

Columbia’s water complies with water quality standards and is tested more frequently and thoroughly than is required by law. The well water is monitored for any possibility of contamination and over 4,000 tests are run each year on samples at the Water Treatment Plant and from 41 locations throughout Columbia.

An annual water quality report or Consumer Confidence Report required by the Environmental Protection Agency is published each spring. This report along with water testing results is available online or can be sent to anyone who requests a copy.
