My towns main water supply comes from a series of 5 wells that draw from the same aquifer. ok great so I'll send that out to ward labs and be good to go.
problem is - the town has the ability to draw from neighboring towns, and have recently been doing so. most of the neighboring towns are also drawing groundwater, however one neighboring town does draw surface water. so my question is, without knowing specifically how much and how often they're taking the neighbors water...is this all in the noise? and I can proceed assuming the water is similar enough? I also could send another sample out in 6 months to compare I guess.
the town is Pembroke ma. http://www.mass.gov/eea/docs/dep/water/drinking/swap/sero/4231000.pdf
