Narrabri Shire Council has published its latest testing results for PFAS in potable water sites.

The May results for Narrabri show a slight increase in PFHxS and PFOS, however, is still within national guidelines.

A result of 6ng/l was recorded for PFHxS and 7ng/l for PFOS, up from 5ng/l and 6ng/l on the previous month.

In an update, council said the latest testing results have once again identified PFAS levels below the current Australian Drinking Water Guidelines.

This means that the Narrabri town water supply continues to be safe for consumption, council said.

Council will continue to test the water supply monthly and report back to residents.

NSW Health is recommending that any private bore owners consider testing their groundwater.
