Public forum gathers feedback on spending ARPA funds on PFAS water filtration system

To clarify, Ms. Stanton noted that wells 1 and 2 had high manganese and iron, and a system to fully remove these minerals would cost in the range of $20M, which is one of the factors leaning the argument towards an MWRA hook-up.

I spoke with her afterwards, and she indicated that with the Ashland water supply, water from well 6 (the high PFAS well) likely contributes about 50% of the water that is distributed to the public.
