The Acton Water District is a community public water supply that delivers high quality drinking water to the majority (about 95 percent) of the residents of the town of Acton, Massachusetts.  All of the water provided from the District comes from eleven wells located within the town of Acton. The District’s system consists of approximately 135 miles of water main, four storage tanks, and a variety of treatment facilities that assist in the production of high quality finished water.

The Acton Water District is a municipal entity separate from the Town of Acton chartered by the Massachusetts Legislature’s Acts of 1912. The Town of Acton’s web site is www.Acton-Ma.gov.

Service Line Inventory Available 10/16/24

The Acton Water District has submitted an initial Service Line Inventory (SLI) to MassDEP in accordance with the federal Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (LCRR). Although we have not identified any lead service lines, we do have some leaded components and will need to replace some service lines in the future. More importantly, we have a large number of unknown service lines, which we expect to be copper or plastic, as these were the two most common materials utilized when much of the housing stock in Acton was constructed. If you have questions about your service line material, you may contact us at 978-263-9107, email at wq@actonwater.com, or by visiting our office at 693 Massachusetts Avenue, Acton. This is just the first step in complying with the LCRR and you will be hearing more from the District as we continue to investigate service line materials.


Water Quality Report Available

The latest water quality report summarizing water samples collected throughout our system in 2023 is available at www.actonwater.com/ccr.  Please share this information with other users of water in your home, business, or neighborhood.  If you require an alternate form of this report or have questions on the information contained in it, please contact Alexandra Wahlstrom, Environmental Manager at 978-263-9107.
