Trichlorofluoromethane
Phoenix Village
NOTE: Phoenix Village purchases water from Onondaga County Water Authority (OCWA) which is required to test for trichlorofluoromethane. Sample information shown below was taken by Onondaga County Water Authority (OCWA).
Trichlorofluoromethane (Freon 11) is a refrigerant, solvent and aerosol propellant banned in 2000 under the Montreal Protocol because of its ozone-depleting properties. Freons can cause heart, nervous system and liver damage.

State and national drinking water standards and health guidelines
EWG Health Guideline 1,300 ppb
The EWG Health Guideline of 1,300 ppb for trichlorofluoromethane was defined by the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment as a public health goal, the level of a drinking water contaminant that does not pose a significant health risk. This health guideline protects against harm to internal organs.
