Around this lab: Lincoln County, WA
- Private wells: about 3,939 people, 38% of Lincoln County’s 10,321 residents (USGS, 2015); rank 34 of 39 counties in Washington by people on wells.
- At house sale: Statewide (WAC 246-272A-0270) has a septic system rule (WAC 246-272A-0270(1)(k)). What it requires
- EPA radon zone (indoor air): Zone 2: moderate potential (average indoor radon may be between 2 and 4 pCi/L). EPA says the zone map should not decide whether one home needs testing.
- Arsenic above 10 µg/L (USGS model): about 163 private-well users (95% range 129 to 204; 2010 base), rank 30 of 37 in the state. A screening estimate, not a measurement of any well.
- Older homes (Census ACS 2020–2024): 63% of 5,918 housing units were built before 1980, above the state share of 43%. Homes built before 1986 are more likely to have lead solder or fittings, so test tap water for lead there.
- PFAS in public water nearby (public supply, not your well): 1 public system serving this county reported EPA UCMR 5 results; 0 had a PFOA or PFOS sample at or above 4.0 ng/L.
County figures describe where the lab is, not the lab. Sources: USGS 2015 water use and 2017 arsenic estimates, EPA radon zones, Census ACS table B25034 (2020–2024), EPA UCMR 5 (2023–2026); details and links on the sources page.
