TCEQ uses contract samplers to collect all TTHM and HAA5 samples used for compliance with the Stage 2 Disinfection Byproduct Rule. The results in this data set are from all TTHM & HAA samples collected to date.

Samples are taken daily at locations throughout the distribution system. Temperature, pH, and Total Chlorine Residual are collected by city personnel. Samples are taken to a lab to be analyzed for Total Coliform and E. Coli indicators. Results are returned to the city the following business day.
