Drinking water in Scharten, Buchkirchen
3 supply zones — values can differ depending on the district. Below is the zone with the most documented parameters, the others collapsed underneath. To determine the exact match, look up the postcode.
How to read the share of the parametric value
Several samples per year: for chemical parameters the mean value is given, for microbiological ones the highest measured value. There the parametric value is zero — a single finding would disappear in the average, and it is precisely that finding which is the information. Which reference applies is stated in the last column of the table.

| Fluoride | < 0.1 mg/l below limit of quantification | 1.5 mg/l | < 7 % * | Mean · Gemeinden Wangen bei Olten und Rickenbach SO |
| Nitrate | 26.45 mg/l | 40 mg/l | 66 % | Mean · Gemeinden Wangen bei Olten und Rickenbach SO |
* Value below the limit of quantification: the actual share of the parametric value is not known; it lies somewhere below the stated upper bound. The marker shows where the limit of quantification of the measurement lies relative to the parametric value.
Metabolites (2)
| Parameter | Value | Parametric value | Share of the parametric value | Reference |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chlorothalonil metabolite R417888 | 0.09 µg/l | 0.1 µg/l | 90 % | Mean · Gemeinden Wangen bei Olten und Rickenbach SO |
| Chlorothalonil metabolite R471811 | 0.5 µg/l | 0.1 µg/l | 500 % Mean above the parametric value | Mean · Gemeinden Wangen bei Olten und Rickenbach SO |
Annual means and medians are not individual measured values, but the parametric values apply per sample. If a mean lies above it, at least one individual sample was above it — the mean does not say how many, or by how much. That is why this is not reported here as an exceedance of the parametric value. What counts remains the water supplier's publication, which each row links to.
