Water Quality Report

2024 Water Quality Report: Oak Lodge Water Meets or Exceeds all Regulations

Our Annual Water Quality Report, also known as the Consumer Confidence Report, contains important information about your drinking water, including how it is treated and tested for contaminants throughout the year. The information presented in the report is based on monitoring results from the 2024 calendar year.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Oregon Health Authority laws require the District to provide our consumers with a detailed report showing what is in the water they drink. OLWS continually strives to adopt new and better methods for delivering the best quality drinking water standards. The District's testing results continue to meet and exceed state and federal guidelines for public health.

You can request a paper copy of the report at info@olws.org or call (503) 654-7765. For more information about this report or for any questions about your drinking water, please call Marty Guenther, Pollution Prevention Specialist, at (503) 753-9689.

PFAS and Your Drinking Water: What to Know

You may have heard about PFAS—also known as "forever chemicals"—in the news and wondered if they’re in your drinking water. The good news: none have been detected in our system.

PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are man-made chemicals used in products like non-stick pans, water-repellent clothing, and stain-resistant fabrics. Over time, they can make their way into the environment, including water sources.

While research is ongoing, high levels of PFAS may pose health risks. That’s why the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is closely monitoring them.

As part of a federal testing program, our water was tested from July 2023 to April 2024 for 29 types of PFAS and lithium. None were detected.

We’re committed to protecting your water quality and will continue to monitor developments and share important updates with you.
