The drinking water system at the facility noted above is registered in the Commonwealth as a transient non-community (TNC) public water system because it owns and/or controls its source of water and supplies potable water to 25 or more persons at least 60 days of the year.

Examples of TNCs include restaurants, motels, campgrounds, parks, golf courses, ski areas and community centers.

The drinking water quality monitoring results on file with the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection Drinking Water

Program (MassDEP/DWP) for this public water system and period noted above are as follows:

2023 DRINKING WATER QUALITY REPORT

For the period January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022

All drinking water, including bottled water, may contain small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk.

Detect – any levels found at or above the detection limits in the Massachusetts Drinking Water Regulations, 310 CMR 22.00.

Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) – the highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water.

Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG) – the level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health.

For any violations, Refer to the following health effects language listed below and contact the system’s contact person for information on corrective actions taken by the system to return to compliance and stay in compliance in the future:

Total Coliform – Coliforms are bacteria that are naturally present in the environment and are used as an indicator that other, potentially harmful, bacteria are present. Coliforms were found in more samples than allowed and this was a warning of potential problems.

Nitrate – Infants below the age of six months who drink water containing nitrate in excess of the MCL could become seriously ill and, if untreated, may die. Symptoms include shortness of breath and blue-baby syndrome.

Nitrite - Infants below the age of six months who drink water containing nitrite in excess of the MCL could become seriously ill and, if untreated, may die. Symptoms include shortness of breath and blue-baby syndrome.

Other Contaminant Violations – If applicable, contact the owner or the MassDEP at the numbers listed below for information on the other contaminants.

** If “Y”, one or more times during the reporting period this system did not monitor and/or report to the MassDEP as required.

“ We are required to monitor your drinking water for specific contaminants on a regular basis. Results of the regular monitor ing are an indicator of whether or not our drinking water meets health standards. During the above noted reporting period we did not monitor or test and/or did not complete all monitoring or testing for contaminant(s) noted above and therefore cannot be sure of the quality of our drinking water during that time. “

The posting of this report meets the public notification Tier 3 requirements of 310 CMR 22.16(4).

Discharges and emissions from industrial and manufacturing sources associated with the production or use of these PFAS, including production of moisture and oil resistant coatings on fabrics and other materials.

Additional sources include the use and disposal of products containing these PFAS, such as fire-fighting foams.

Some people who drink water containing these PFAS at elevated levels may experience certain adverse effects. These could include effects on the liver, blood, immune system, thyroid, and fetal development. These PFAS may also elevate the risk of certain cancers.

ACID (PFHxS), PERFLUORONONANOIC ACID (PFNA), PERFLUOROOCTANESULFONIC ACID (PFOS), PERFLUOROOCTANOIC ACID (PFOA). PFAS6 was regulated on October 2, 2020. Any detects before that time will be reported in the unregulated table below, if applicable.

1 The lowest and highest detected values. A single value means only one sample was taken.

2 The average detected amount of PFAS6. This is calculated by adding all detected amounts and dividing by the number of samples taken.

Transient Non-Community (TNC) systems are not required to meet the MCL of 20 ppt for PFAS6. MassDEP may perform a site-specific health risk assessment per 310 CMR 22.03(8) for results over 20 ppt.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a family of chemicals widely used in common consumer products such as food packaging, outdoor clothing, carpets, leather goods, ski and snowboard waxes, and more. PFAS can leach into groundwater or surface water from surface soils contaminated with PFAS. When ingested, some PFAS can build up in the body, and over time, these PFAS may increase to a level where health effects could occur.

The PFAS Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) of 0.000020 milligrams per liter (mg/l) or 20 ppt for the sum of six PFAS compounds

(PFOS, PFOA, PFHxS, PFNA, PFHpA, and PFDA) known as PFAS6 is not applicable to transient non-community (TNC) systems, but

TNCs are required to comply with the special applicability requirements of 310 CMR 22.07G(2): Every Supplier of Water operating a

Transient, Non-Community Water System shall collect, analyze and report the results of one sample from each Sampling Point, or alternate sampling location required by the Department pursuant to 310 CMR 22.07G(4)(a) or (b), no later than September 30, 2022.

All such monitoring shall be performed in compliance with the provisions addressing monitoring protocols, invalidation of PFAS samples, PFAS analytical requirements, PFAS reporting requirements, PFAS6 minimum reporting levels and electronic filing requirements set forth in 310 CMR 22.07G(4), (9), (12), (13), (16), (17).

These results are on file with the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection Drinking Water Program (MassDEP/DWP).
