What the violations mean

Stage 1 Disinfection Byproducts Rule

1 incident

The system did not meet a treatment requirement of the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule

Byproducts form when disinfectants react with natural material in water. Long-term exposure above federal limits may increase cancer risk

Where the water comes from

Ellington PWS draws water from 4 wells (3 of them for emergency, seasonal or other part-time use).

Annual water quality report

Ellington PWS must give its customers an annual water quality report (Consumer Confidence Report) by July 1, with the levels its tests found in the previous year.

Where the state allows it, systems serving fewer than 10,000 people may publish the report in a local newspaper or news site instead of mailing it, and must provide a copy on request.
