The City of Tallahassee’s latest Water Quality Report confirms that the city’s drinking water continues to meet or exceed all federal and state safety standards, according to city officials.

The 2025 Water Quality Report, also known as the Consumer Confidence Report, details the quality of drinking water provided to customers throughout the city and outlines the monitoring, testing and treatment processes used to ensure water safety.

According to the report, the City of Tallahassee has provided residents with drinking water for more than 120 years and continues to maintain a high standard of water quality through advanced technology, routine testing and scientific monitoring practices.

The report includes data collected between Jan. 1 and Dec. 31, 2025, unless otherwise noted. Officials said the city’s team of water quality professionals regularly monitors the water supply to ensure compliance with regulations established by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Florida Department of Health.

The annual report provides information about the source of the city’s drinking water, the treatment process and the results of water quality testing conducted throughout the year.

City officials also encouraged residents to help protect water quality after it reaches their homes and businesses by properly maintaining plumbing systems.

In addition to highlighting water quality, the report promotes water conservation practices. Residents are encouraged to turn off water while brushing their teeth, repair leaking faucets and toilets, and use rain sensors on irrigation systems to reduce unnecessary water use.

Officials said conservation efforts help preserve water resources for future generations while supporting the community’s long-term water supply.
