How can I find out about contaminants in my drinking water?

If you get your water from a public water system, you should contact them for this information. For a contact
list for all public water systems in the Commonwealth you may visit:

https://www.mass.gov/lists/drinking-water-health-safety#contacts then under “Contacts” click on “MA Public Water Supplier contacts sorted By Town.” For private well owners see the Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in Private Well Drinking Water
