Teton Village Water & Sewer District Annual Drinking Water Quality Report 2025 PWS WY5600218 We are pleased to present this year's Annual Water Quality Report. We want to keep you informed about the excellent water and services we have delivered to you over the past year. Our goal is and always has been, to provide to you a safe and dependable supply of drinking water. This report is designed to provide details about where your water comes from, what it contains, and how it compares to standards set by regulatory agencies. If you have any questions about this report or your water utility, please contact Teton Village’s Water System Operators at 307-733-9231. If you want to learn more, please attend any of our regularly scheduled Board meetings of the Teton Village Water and Sewer District. They take place on the second Wednesday of every month at 1:00 p.m. in the District Offices which are located at 7020 Rachel Way. Teton Village’s water comes from a ground water source, and is one of the cleanest in the country. TVWSD operates 5 wells in the Snake River Alluvial Aquifer. The water is lightly chlorinated to prevent microbial growth, but is not fluorinated. The water measures an approximate hardness level of 113 ppm calcium carbonate units (6.6 grains/gallon) which is “moderately hard”. A copy of the source water assessment is available at tetonvillagewy.gov All 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. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791). The sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity: • Microbial contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations, and wildlife; • Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, which can be naturally occurring or result from urban stormwater runoff, industrial, or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farming; pesticides and herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban stormwater runoff, and residential uses; • Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater runoff, and septic systems; • Radioactive contaminants, which can be naturally occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities.
