| Thank you for taking
the time to review the fifth annual Water Quality Report provided
to you by the Town of Nahant Water Department in partnership with
the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority (MWRA). We are pleased
to be working with the MWRA in providing information regarding the
quality of your drinking water. This annual report provides detailed
information on the MWRA’s source reservoirs and the quality
of water as determined through federal and state testing guidelines.
We hope that this report provides you with answers
to questions regarding your water supply. If you require more
information on particular topics, please call our office. Other
contacts and phone numbers are provided within the report for
the MWRA and United States Environmental Protection Agency.
Sincerely,
Mark P. Cullinan
Town Administrator

Online Annual Report |
The Massachusetts Water Resources Authority (MWRA) will soon be
mailing to every household our annual report on your drinking water
quality. Look for the "Tap
Into Water" report in the mail during June.
The report, required by federal law, provides the results of extensive
testing by both MWRA and your local water department of 2002. The
news is good - from the Quabbin Reservoir all the way to the tap
- test results show excellent drinking water quality.
Over the next two years, MWRA will be completing
several large new facilities designed to improve the regional
water system reliability and security. These include a new ozone
treatment plant, the 18-mile MetroWest Tunnel, covered storage
tanks, and pipeline improvements. The two-year start-up of these
new improvements begins this fall, representing the biggest advances
in the regional water supply in many decades.
