Wilsonville Water? Good Enough to Drink (And Safe, Too)

The City's annual water quality report gives the water a big thumbs up.

While there's been much discussion of lead in the water in neighboring cities, Wilsonville just released their annual report on the quality of water in the city.

And the word is good.

The report shows that in every category of chemical measurement, including lead, that the City’s water quality surpasses all federal and state standards for drinking water. Distribution of the Annual Water Quality Report, also known as the Consumer Confidence Report (CCR), is required of all community water systems under the 1996 Safe Drinking Water Act amendments by July 1 of each year.
