Can You Drink Tap Water in Newport News?

Yes, Newport News's tap water is generally considered safe to drink as Newport News has no active health based violations of the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) that we are aware of. Other factors such as lead piping in a home, or low levels of pollutants on immunocompromised individuals, should also be considered, however. To find more recent info we might have, you can check out our boil water notice page or the city's water provider website.

According the EPA’s ECHO database, from April 30, 2019 to June 30, 2022, Newport News's water utility, Fort Eustis, had 0 violations of the Safe Drinking Water Act. For more details on the violations, please see our violation history section below. The last violation for Newport News was resolved on Dec. 31, 2016. This assessment is based on the Fort Eustis water system, other water systems in the city may have different results.

While tap water that meets the EPA health guidelines generally won’t make you sick to your stomach, it can still contain regulated and unregulated contaminants present in trace amounts that could potentially cause health issues over the long-run. These trace contaminants may also impact immunocompromised and vulnerable individuals.

The EPA is reviewing if it’s current regulations around pollutant levels in tap water are strict enough, and the health dangers posed by unregulated pollutants, like PFAS.

Newport News Tap Water Safe Drinking Water Act Violation History - Prior 10 Years

Below is a ten year history of violations for the water system named Fort Eustis for Newport News in Virginia. For more details please see the "What do these Violations Mean?" section below.

From Oct. 1, 2016 to Dec. 31, 2016, Newport News had 2 non-health based Safe Drinking Water Act violations with the violation category being Monitoring and Reporting, more specifically, the violation code was Monitoring, Routine (IDSE) which falls into the Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule rule code group, and the Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule rule code family for the following contaminant codes: Total Haloacetic Acids (HAA5), TTHM.

Is there Lead in Newport News Water?

Based on the EPA’s ECHO Database, 90% of the samples taken from the Newport News water system, Fort Eustis, between sample start date and sample end date, were at or below, 0.0 mg/L of lead in Newport News water. This is 0% of the 0.015 mg/L action level. This means 10% of the samples taken from Newport News contained more lead.

While Newport News water testing may have found 0.0 mg/L of lead in its water, that does not mean your water source has the same amount. The amount of lead in water in a city can vary greatly from neighborhood to neighborhood, or even building to building. Many buildings, particularly older ones, have lead pipes or service lines which can be a source of contamination. To find out if your home has lead, we recommend getting you water tested.

No amount of lead in water is healthy, only less dangerous. As lead accumulates in our bodies over time, even exposure to relatively small amounts can have negative health effects. For more information, please check out our Lead FAQ page.

Are there PFAS in Newport News Tap Water?

Currently, testing tap water for PFAS isn’t mandated on a national level. We do have a list of military bases where there have been suspected or confirmed leaks. There appears to be at least one military base - Langley Air Force Base - near Newport News with suspected leaks.

With many potential sources of PFAS in tap water across the US, the best information we currently have about which cities have PFAS in their water is this ewg map, which you can check to see if Newport News has been evaluated for yet.

Our stance is better safe than sorry, and that it makes sense to try to purify the tap water just in case.

Sources and Resources

Newport News Tap Water

While many cities and towns in the US make sure to use anti-plague vaccines in their tap water, Newport News offers a different kind of peace and tranquility: no public water filters on-site. As a result, Newport News tap water has to go through a complex distillation process that kills all the germs, bacteria, viruses, and parasites living in it. Still, it does not remove the trace minerals found naturally in drinking water. Those trace minerals are essential for human health, and without them, Newport News tap water is like taking away your food.

What’s more, you’ll be putting your family at risk because of the lack of quality treatment. According to the American Water Works Association, distillation is a “flimsy” method of filtering water. It works by subjecting the water to high temperatures, which vaporizes any organic compounds or fat molecules and leaves behind the pure water. This makes it much less effective as a disinfectant, and some studies have shown that it can even make tap water more acidic than natural water.

Also, one of the biggest threats of using distilled water to make tap water at home is that chlorine tends to evaporate from the leaves during distillation. If that disappears into the water, not only are you subjecting yourself to an unsafe chemical attack, but you are also adding a cancer-causing element called trihalomethane to the mix. No amount of chlorine is going to fix that! The best way to ensure that your household drinking water is free of all dangerous chemicals and minerals is to have a home water filtration system at home.

Newport News Drinking Water

The Newport News is a small community located in the eastern part of Newport News, Virginia. The town is situated on the beautiful Ashley Domain, a landfill located on the James River. This landfill contains all trash types, including chemicals, tires, metal scraps, old cars, and more. It also happens to be one of the most heavily polluted places in the country, with over two million pounds of toxic material believed to have been dumped into the James River. Much of this poisonous material is from fertilizer used on fields across the city since it is widely known that large amounts of toxic substances can cause cancer in humans.

Unfortunately, much of this highly toxic material is still being dumped onto the James River. This is why it has become necessary for Newport News drinking water treatment systems to be installed. If you live in Newport News and are concerned about the purity of your drinking water, you should know that several home filtration systems are available to you. Many of these companies offer nationwide warranties on their equipment. They use the latest and best technology to ensure that you and your family are always getting the cleanest and safest water possible.

One of the things that I find the most important when choosing a purifier is that it has to be very easy to maintain. It should not take more than a few minutes a month to clear away all of the sediment and impurities that have built up in your water. This is especially important if you or any household members have any health conditions, such as asthma or allergies. These conditions make it very difficult for people to drink clean water without repeatedly cleaning the water. Besides, if you or someone in your household becomes sick, you do not want to waste time and money healing the person while making their water condition worse.

Newport News Surface Water

The Newport News surface water is an essential part of the region’s water system. It is both an economic and environmental resource and must be protected for future generations. However, unlike other water bodies in Virginia, Newport News is not regulated by Virginia’s Department of Environmental Quality, which leaves the door wide open to big chemical companies to potentially contaminate the water supply. Newport News has one of the highest levels of arsenic in the country and has had some major lawsuits against companies that improperly treated or discharged waste into the water.

Fortunately, the state legislature has recently passed a bill that will regulate surface water. But until it becomes law, Newport News residents will continue to face the threat of unregulated pollution from big businesses. When Big Virginia Water, the parent company for both the Newport News surface water and its riverbed water supply, contaminates the surface water, it can wreak havoc on local water systems, especially those drawn from the city’s sewer system. Newport News suffers from severe flooding. Because the sewage treatment plants have inadequate capacity to remove harmful chemicals from the stormwater, these contaminants make their way into the public’s tap water. This means that pregnant women, children, and people with particular health concerns are at risk for contaminated water.

Besides, chemical companies may dump millions of pounds of waste into the ocean each year, creating dead marine vegetation and excessive amounts of dead algae in the water. Chemicals dumped into the ocean can also be ingested by marine animals and ultimately cause irritation or disease in the water system. Many experts believe that if the surface water were regulated similar to what the city has now, algae, blooms, and toxic contaminants could be controlled. This would be a huge step towards protecting the environment and the water supply quality and benefiting the wildlife that lives in the Newport News area.

Newport News Treatment Plants

Newport News Water Compliance with Federal

If you own a business in Newport News, Virginia, you must be aware of the requirement that your business complies with the Safe Drinking Water Act of 1974. This was initiated by President Nixon and the Federal Trade Commission under the Clean Water Act provisions. This law’s primary purpose was to eliminate all sources of drinking water contamination by eliminating any possible threat to human health and by promoting the development of healthy water supplies. This also made it easier for local governments to protect their local waterways. A Newport News Water Compliance Officer can walk you through all the necessary steps that you need to follow to receive a certificate that shows that your water is indeed safe for drinking.

One significant effect of the Clean Water Act was creating the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System or NPDES. A Newport News water compliance officer can help you obtain one of these permits so that you are responsible for releasing toxic and harmful substances from your company’s water supply. The NPDES program works by placing low-cost and effective filters on household water pipes that trap any excesses or pollutants in your water supply.

You will be required to obtain a permit before installing any equipment that allows for the proper discharge of toxic chemicals or other forms of pollutants into your local water system. In the event of an audit from the NPDES, Newport News water pollution violations can be discovered, corrected, and removed before issuing a permit.

There has been an increase in cancer cases across the nation due to unsafe water supplies. Newport News has a long-standing history of poor water quality. In the 1950s, when a famous real estate developer was trying to develop the city, there were severe problems with the water supply, and the development was later halted.

In 2021, Newport News joined the ranks of Virginia cities required to test their water for toxic chemicals under the federal law known as the Safe Drinking Water Act. Unfortunately, this does little to help the city clean up its dangerous water supply. The only way to ensure that your home is genuinely free of toxic chemicals is by installing a point-of-use drinking water filter at your kitchen faucet. You’ll never have to worry about Newport News water contaminant again.

Newport News Reservoirs

Newport News is one of the busiest cities in the Hampton Roads metropolitan area. It is a popular destination for families, singles, couples, and business people. There are plenty of local attractions, both on land and on water. One of these attractions is the Newport News reservoirs. These reservoirs are an essential part of the community and serve an important purpose. The reservoirs protect valuable land that would otherwise be lost to development.

Newport News has two major reservoirs, which are the Williamsburg and the Stone Mountain reservoirs. These reservoirs are responsible for flood protection for the city. In addition to protecting the city from floods, the reservoirs also play an important role in irrigation. Water is pumped from the reservoirs into the city and then distributed to different parts of the city using canals. It is essential to realize that the Newport News reservoirs were designed for future use and that the city will need to continue using them in the future.

The first man to explore the possibilities of using these reservoirs was Mr. James Hardiman, who patented an innovative hydro-dynamic deposition of limestone. This was later used in various other areas around the country. Currently, Newport News still uses hydro-dynamic technology to control the discharge of limestones from its reservoirs.

Newport News Groundwater

Newport News is located on the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, and it is this location that has been selected to be a focus for testing the quality of the local aquifer. This natural resource is the source of most of the drinking water in the state, and it supplies more than 8 million residents with that supply of clean water each day. This resource must not be allowed to be contaminated or allowed to become depleted because that would mean a significant health threat for the people of Newport News. The recent testing found high levels of prescription drugs in groundwater samples taken around the city. If this contamination is left unchecked, it could mean substantial health risks to you and your family.

Now, the news isn’t all bad. The tests also found levels of lead and other heavy metals in the groundwater, typically found in minimal amounts. The problem is that it takes time for the heavy metals to become deposited in the ground, and when they do, the effects are often less severe than if the heavy metals had been present in the water in the first place. Newport News has a professional team of monitors who will regularly check the water samples to ensure that they are still good. Once the quality is found to be good, then the treatment can begin.

Testing the local aquifer is necessary because if the groundwater in the area is not pure enough, it can affect the groundwater in the surrounding area, which means the water that ends up in your taps, your food, and your beverages can carry harmful contaminants from the outside. This contamination can prove especially dangerous to children, elderly citizens, and pregnant women, who may not be able to filter out the hazardous contaminants independently. If you live in Newport News, you owe it to yourself to have your groundwater tested so that you can protect your health. Remember, the safety of your family comes first. So don’t wait; make sure you get a groundwater sampling in Newport News today.
