Drinking water: PFAS testing

No public water system serving Sitka reported a PFAS detection in the UCMR5 national testing round. Systems serving under 3,300 people were only sampled in part, so absence from this table is not proof of absence in the water.

Underground fuel tanks

EPA's UST Finder records 56 tank facilities in Sitka: 12 tanks in service and 128 closed. 31 fuel releases are on record, of which 0 remain open. Open releases are cleanups that have not reached "no further action".

Radon

EPA maps Sitka as Zone 3, the lowest predicted indoor radon (under 2 pCi/L average). Radon and air quality are covered in depth on lung.com.

The record for one specific address

County figures blur what matters: distance. The Address Environmental Report runs these same federal datasets against one address and reports every site, tank, polluter and water result around it, with distances, in about a minute.
