Grady County, OK
drinking water quality
58,353 residents · 31 public water systems · 11 ZIP codes
EPA sampled 3 of 31 public water systems here, together serving about 24,466 people. EPA detected PFBS at 3.9 ng/L. EPA has not set a drinking water limit for PFBS, so there is no figure to compare it against. Last sampled 8/5/2025.
Health-based violations
Separately from PFAS, EPA records 50 health-based violations across 15 of the county’s water systems since 2020, the most recent in 2024. They involved contaminant 0300, contaminant 0200, E. coli, gross alpha radiation, contaminant 1038, uranium.
What this means
PFAS are industrial chemicals that EPA describes as breaking down only very slowly in the environment. In April 2024 EPA set the first enforceable national limits: 4 ng/L for PFOA and PFOS, 10 ng/L for PFHxS, PFNA and GenX.
These figures are county-level and come from EPA’s sampling of public water systems. They describe the worst result found in the county, not what comes out of any particular tap — that depends on which system serves the address, and on the plumbing in the building. A private well is not covered by this programme at all.
