Ashland's running annual average for the period noted above is 0.106 ppm for the period of July 1998 to May 1999. .
Disinfection is required for all public surface water systems and some groundwater systems.
Some of the THMs have been sown to cause cancer in rats. The Town of Ashland has installed a Chloramine Treatment Station which will be operational by the end of June 1999 to reduce the THM levels in our water. . Chloramines must be removed from water used in the kidney dialysis process and from water that is used in fish tanks or ponds for reptiles, turtles and amphibians. . If you have any questions please call Mr Joseph Celano, 508.881.0113. .
