[ARCHIVED] Water Kiosk & PFAS Update

The water kiosk at Whiting Street remains closed until further notice due to technical issues. A technician is scheduled to come out and resolve the issue by Friday afternoon. Please note that the technician will be out as soon as possible but is delayed due to unforeseen circumstances. An update will be shared once the kiosk is working again.

The Town would also like to inform community members that the town's water supply is currently meeting MassDEP's PFAS public drinking water standard of 20 parts per trillion (ppt) or less.

The DPW continues to work diligently to address PFAS in its water supply. Since 2020, the Town has brought the Adamsdale Well to compliance with MassDEP's regulations and the EPA's new PFAS regulation. In September, a new water treatment system at the McKeon Well will also be online, meeting the MassDEP and EPA regulations.

The Department of Public Works will also begin working with its engineers to develop a timeline to bring the Whiting and Hillman Wells, which currently meet MassDEP’s regulations, into compliance with the new EPA's regulations within the next five years.
