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.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is Wasilla tap water safe to drink?

PurityMap does not give a safe/unsafe verdict; it shows what the public records measured. For Wasilla, PFAS were detected below the federal limits; the lead 90th-percentile result was 3.1 µg/L against the 15 µg/L action level. WASILLA WATER SYSTEM (PWSID AK2224646) has a Purity Score of 89/100 (confidence: moderate), 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.

Who provides tap water in Wasilla?

WASILLA WATER SYSTEM (PWS ID AK2224646) is the public water system on record for Wasilla, Alaska, serving about 18,492 people. Confirm the utility on your water bill before acting on a specific finding.

Where does Wasilla get its drinking water?

Groundwater (primary source of record in EPA SDWIS).

Are PFAS "forever chemicals" in Wasilla's water?

In EPA's UCMR 5 testing (2023-08-15 to 2024-03-18), PFHxS was detected at 4.2 ng/L, below the 10 ng/L federal limit.

Is there lead in Wasilla's tap water?

WASILLA WATER SYSTEM's most recent lead 90th-percentile result (2022–2024) was 3.1 µg/L, below the 15 µg/L action level. That figure comes from sampled homes; lead usually enters from a building's own pipes and fixtures, so only a test at your tap tells you what you drink.

What does the latest Wasilla water report show?

PurityMap's current record for Wasilla holds 31 findings: 2 detected within the reference and 29 not detected. Each finding links to its dated public record; a parameter that was never monitored is shown as pending, not as a pass.
