Coliform and microbial samples
MS0290004 , Houston-Palestine Water Assoc
5 of 763 results on record were positive for coliform or another organism the agency tests for. The most recent was April 10, 2025.
They fall across 5 of the 576 samples on record.
Every sample on record, October 14, 2003 to August 3, 2026. These figures cover the whole record; the list of samples further down is narrowed.
The most recent samples
Showing samples collected between September 26, 2024 and September 26, 2026. That is this page’s default, not a limit on what the agency records.
Choose a date range
The list below shows 31–45 of 48 samples in this date range, newest first.
Routine (11), Repeat (3) and TG (1). The agency publishes no name for the code TG, so none is shown — this page does not invent labels the agency has not published.
