Contamination score

Higher = more contaminated vs. other cities.

Missouri DNR's Consumer Confidence Report for the Advance public water system (PWS ID MO4010002) documents drinking-water regulation violations noted during 2025, and reporting by The Beacon identified Advance among Missouri systems whose testing indicates difficulty meeting new EPA PFAS limits. Details of the specific violation type were not available in the DNR summary reviewed, so this is reflected as a modest elevation in risk rather than a severe, well-characterized incident.
