Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is Welby tap water safe to drink?

PurityMap does not give a safe/unsafe verdict; it shows what the public records measured. For Welby, the lead 90th-percentile result was 9 µg/L against the 15 µg/L action level. NORTH WASHINGTON STREET WSD (PWSID CO0101105) has a Purity Score of 80/100 (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.

Who provides tap water in Welby?

NORTH WASHINGTON STREET WSD (PWS ID CO0101105) is the public water system on record for Welby, Colorado, serving about 14,500 people. Confirm the utility on your water bill before acting on a specific finding.

Where does Welby get its drinking water?

Surface water (primary source of record in EPA SDWIS).

Is there lead in Welby's tap water?

NORTH WASHINGTON STREET WSD's most recent lead 90th-percentile result (2002) was 9 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 Welby water report show?
