Framingham’s 2025 lead sampling had a 90th-percentile result of 1.6 parts per billion, with zero of 20 sampled homes above the 15-parts-per-billion action level used in that report. These were selected high-risk homes, not a test of your address. Source.

MWRA explains that lead can enter water through service lines and household plumbing even though its source water is lead-free. A source-water report does not replace a tap test where plumbing is a concern. Source.
A public-system result is not a test of a separate private well or every home’s plumbing. This page is background information, not a safety certification. For current restrictions or health advice, follow your water supplier and Board of Health.
