Tapping Into WI Water Quality

News | July 31, 2023 | 0 | by Morgan McCarthy

A new report says 99 percent of Wisconsin’s water systems are safe to drink.

The Department of Natural Resources released the report on Friday. It says over 99 percent of water systems in the state ‘met all health standards.’ That includes passing the tests for lead, nitrates, bacteria, and other chemicals. The report doesn’t, however, offer any insight into PFAS chemicals. There weren’t any official tests for PFAS chemicals last year, but the DNR says that has changed, and there will be a report on PFAS in Wisconsin’s water system next year.
