Water Quality Snapshot: GENESEO VILLAGE

GENESEO VILLAGE is a local-owned community water system that delivers drinking water to 8,000 residents in New York (Livingston County) through 1,260 service connections. Its water is drawn from surface water sources. EPA's Safe Drinking Water Information System records 300 total violations for this system , of which 20 (7%) are health-based — meaning a contaminant exceeded an EPA Maximum Contaminant Level or a required treatment technique failed. A further 270 monitoring and reporting violations are on file. The most recent violation on record dates to 2019.

The most frequently cited contaminant at this system is Surface Water Treatment Rule, recorded in 61 violations (MR). This system was sampled under EPA's UCMR5 PFAS monitoring program and no PFAS compounds were detected above the minimum reporting level.

Across New York, EPA tracks 8,098 public water systems serving 19,294,951 people, with 552,003 cumulative violations and 26,817 health-based violations on record. About 94% of systems in the state carry at least one violation, and state-wide the average per system is 68.2 violations. GENESEO VILLAGE's 300 violations sit above the New York average. Statewide, 129 of 332 UCMR5-tested systems have reported PFAS detections (38.9%). All figures above are sourced directly from EPA SDWIS and UCMR5 public data releases and are updated as EPA publishes new reporting cycles.
