Water report for Bapaume

Official assessment

The latest official test failed at least one quality requirement.

„Eau d’alimentation non conforme aux limites de qualité en vigueur pour les paramètres chloridazone desphényl, chloridazone méthyl desphényl et la somme des pesticides. Toutefois, les concentrations des pesticides concernés restent inférieures aux valeurs sanitaires. Un contrôle renforcé est mis en place. De plus, elle ne respecte pas les recommandations en vigueur de l'arrêté préfectoral du 25 octobre 2012 concernant la teneur en ions perchlorates. Elle est donc déconseillée pour les usages alimentaires pour les nourrissons de moins de 6 mois.“
