Plumstead Northern System draws water from 5 wells (1 of them for emergency, seasonal or other part-time use).
Annual water quality report
Plumstead Northern System 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.
