ASH/WIN JOINT WATER AUTHORITY (EPA PWSID MA2011004) delivers surface water to 11,394 residents. This report reflects 29 individual PFAS result(s) from the source UCMR5 observations. Water hardness and disinfectant type are pending the utility's own annual report.
0health-based violations in the last 10 years
From EPA SDWIS. A clean violation history means no enforcement action was recorded; it does not cover contaminants without a limit.
No result is not a pass. Your utility's annual water quality report may list them, and a certified lab test covers your own tap.
The record describes water leaving treatment and samples across the system. Pipes, solder and fixtures inside a building can add lead the record can’t see, especially in older buildings with lead service lines.

Lab-certified results
ETR Laboratories
50+ substances, including lead, copper, arsenic, nitrate, hardness and coliform bacteria
What it can't tell you: It does not test PFAS, and not every result on the panel falls under the lab's accredited scope.
Screening: quick check, not lab-grade
Silver Lake Research
Lead, bacteria, nitrate, copper, iron, chlorine, hardness and pH
What it can't tell you: Each test gives a yes/no or a rough range, not a lab number, and it cannot detect PFAS or arsenic.

Nothing detected in this record has a treatment match to show. A test of your own tap is the place to start.
Older buildings may have lead service lines, solder or fixtures. Lead is not in Ash/win Joint’s published record, so only a tap test tells you. Test first-draw water, then filter if needed.
None of the 29 PFAS tested was detected in Ash/win Joint’s record. If PFAS matters to you, a filter certification names each compound it covers.
Most utilities keep chlorine or chloramine in the pipes. A carbon filter certified for taste and odor reduces either; your utility can tell you which it uses.
Your utility’s annual water quality report usually lists hardness; a test strip also measures it.
Reverse osmosis reduces many dissolved contaminants, including lead and minerals, at a single faucet, with some water sent to drain.

One email when a new sampling round is published, a result moves above or below its reference, or the system's score changes.PurityMap does not give a safe/unsafe verdict; it shows what the public records measured. For Ash/win Joint, no regulated PFAS were detected in EPA's 2024 testing. ASH/WIN JOINT WATER AUTHORITY (PWSID MA2011004) has a Purity Score of 100/100 (confidence: low), assessed at the water-system level and computed only from contaminants that were measured. Water can change in your own pipes, so a certified test is the only way to know what comes out of your tap. What we found →

UCMR5 Analytical Results
UCMR5 Analytical Results: ASH/WIN JOINT WATER AUTHORITY (MA2011004)
US EPA
Methodology: how we analyze water. Prepared with AI assistance and reviewed by the PurityMap Editorial Team before publication.
EPA SDWIS, EPA UCMR 5 and utility reports, each dated and linked.
Units converted to one basis; a non-detect kept distinct from zero.
Each result tagged by reference type: MCL, action level, screening level or aesthetic.
Every value sits against its own reference, never a blended one.
Measured subjects summarised at the water-system level; an open health-based violation caps the score.
Treatment is matched to what was found; a product is called certified only when its current certification names it.
What the Purity Score means: a summary of this water system’s published record, capped while a health-based violation is open. It is not a test of any tap. ASH/WIN JOINT WATER AUTHORITY · PWSID MA2011004 · Purity Score 100/100 (Excellent) · Confidence: low · Assessed at the water-system level
