Our mission
Scituate Water Watch exists to make water quality information accessible to every household in town — and to be honest about the limits of that information. Scituate's supply is a genuine patchwork of wells, ponds, and a cross-town agreement with Marshfield, which makes it harder to summarize than a single-source system.
We collect what's publicly available, note where sources disagree, and point back to the utility's own reporting whenever we can.
How we started
This began when a group of residents tried to answer a simple question — "has our water ever failed a federal standard?" — and got different answers from different public trackers. Instead of picking the version that made the best headline, we decided to lay out the discrepancy itself and keep tracking it as better data becomes available.
