Question 1

Is Lagrange Middle School water safe to drink?

Accepted Answer

Lagrange Middle School (PWS ID: NY1319316) has 85 recorded violations in the EPA SDWIS database. No PFAS contamination was detected in UCMR5 testing. EPA SDWIS lists this system's service population as 1,063 people using Groundwater sources.

Question 2

How many people does Lagrange Middle School serve?

Accepted Answer

EPA SDWIS reports that Lagrange Middle School serves 1,063 people (this public water system's service population, not the municipal population of Lagrangeville or any other city). It is a Local-owned system using Groundwater water sources with 1 service connections. The operator address is listed in Lagrangeville, New York.

Question 3

What type of violations does Lagrange Middle School have?

Accepted Answer

Lagrange Middle School has 85 total violations: 7 health-based violations (MCL exceedances or treatment failures), 70 monitoring/reporting violations, and 7 treatment technique violations. Health-based violations indicate contaminant levels exceeded EPA safe limits.

Question 4

Has PFAS been detected in Lagrange Middle School water?

Accepted Answer

No PFAS testing data is available for Lagrange Middle School under the EPA's UCMR5 monitoring program.

Question 5

What water source does Lagrange Middle School use?

Accepted Answer

Lagrange Middle School uses Groundwater as its primary water source. It is classified as a Non-Transient Non-Community Water System, serving the same people for at least 6 months per year.

Question 6

Where does this data come from?

Accepted Answer

All data comes from the EPA Safe Drinking Water Information System (SDWIS) and the UCMR5 PFAS monitoring program. SDWIS tracks compliance for all public water systems regulated under the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Question 7

Where does Lagrange Middle School sit among U.S. public water systems?

Accepted Answer

According to EPA SDWIS population_served among sitemap-advertised systems (serving 500+), Lagrange Middle School ranks #18,887 of 29,740 by people served, and #704 of 1,204 in New York. Ordinals use population_served DESC among systems serving 500+ (the sitemap cohort). See /methodology#corpus-placement.

Question 8

How does Lagrange Middle School's violation count compare nationally?

Accepted Answer

Lagrange Middle School has 85 recorded EPA SDWIS violations, fewer than 30% of the 29,740 public water systems serving 500 or more people nationwide (the same sitemap cohort used for the corpus-placement ranking above). 70% of that cohort has fewer violations than Lagrange Middle School. A system can have zero recorded violations and still be actively monitored, and a high violation count often reflects a system that reports thoroughly, not necessarily one with worse water.
