The city of Daingerfield has received their Annual Drinking Water Quality Report from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. The report showed no violations in sources of drinking water that furnish the city of Daingerfield.

The TCEQ tests issues a Water Quality Report annually based on the previous Jan. 1 to Dec. 31 time frame, so this report, which was mailed to residents of Daingerfield, is based on the 2015 calendar year.

The TCEQ tests drinking water sources, and reports all findings, along with a detailed description of what the contaminant is, how it could have made its way to the source, and what the acceptable levels of each contaminant are. In Daingerfield’s report, there were no contaminants that exceeded the Environmental Protection Agency’s recommended levels.

According to the report that was mailed to residents, “Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk.”
