PFAS monitoring results

Testing for PFAS in drinking water

We regularly test the drinking water produced at our water filtration plants and Sydney Desalination Plant for perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and publish the latest results. Drinking water from the Cascade and North Richmond water filtration plants is tested weekly. All other water filtration plants are tested monthly.

PFAS and the Australian Drinking Water Guidelines
The levels of PFAS in your drinking water are lower than the values specified in the Guidelines, which are PFOS = < 0.008 µg/L, PFHxS = < 0.03 µg/L, PFOA = < 0.2 µg/L and PFBS = < 1.0 µg/L.

Additional PFAS results for all water filtration plants

We regularly test drinking water at all water filtration plants for a suite of other PFAS compounds, including 42 that don't have specified PFAS values in the current Australian Drinking Water Guidelines. Download the spreadsheets below for monthly results.

Results for Sydney Desalination Plant

At full capacity, the Sydney Desalination Plant in Kurnell can provide up to 15% of Greater Sydney's total drinking water. The plant can supply about 1.5 million people with an average of 250 million litres a day. Quarterly PFAS monitoring of the treated water commenced in January 2024. In 2025, the method was changed to allow more accurate reporting to 4 decimal places.
