Trophy Club Municipal Utility District 1
NOTE: Trophy Club Municipal Utility District 1 purchases water from City of Fort Worth which is required to test for antimony. Sample information shown below was taken by City of Fort Worth.
Antimony is a naturally occurring metal that enters tap water from plumbing fittings and also from industrial uses, such as production of metal alloys, batteries and plastics. Antimony causes organ damage and shortens lifespans in studies of laboratory animals.

State, National, and Health Guidelines for Drinking Water
EWG Health Guideline: 1 ppb
The EWG Health Guideline of 1 ppb for antimony was defined by the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment as a public health goal, the level of a drinking water contaminant that does not pose a significant health risk. This health guideline protects against change to the stomach and intestines.
EPA Maximum Contaminant
Level (MCL): 6 ppb
The legal limit for antimony, established in 1992, was based on a toxicity study in laboratory animals published in 1970. This limit does not include any additional consideration of children’s health.
