Municipal water supplies come from various sources including rivers, lakes, reservoirs, springs, and wells. As water travels over land surfaces or through soil layers, it naturally dissolves minerals and can pick up substances from animal and human activities.

Potential contaminants in water sources may include:

  • Microbial contaminants like viruses and bacteria from sewage facilities, septic systems, farms, and wildlife
  • Inorganic substances such as salts and metals occurring naturally or from urban runoff, industrial wastewater, oil/gas production, and agriculture
  • Pesticides and herbicides from various sources including farming, urban stormwater runoff, and residential usage
  • Organic chemical contaminants including synthetic and volatile compounds from industrial processes, petroleum production, gas stations, urban runoff, and septic systems
  • Radioactive elements that may occur naturally or result from oil/gas production and mining

Arlington's water treatment processes are designed to remove these contaminants, ensuring the water delivered to your home is safe for consumption.

Arlington County Municipal Water Company and CDC
  1. Where does Arlington County water come from?
    Arlington County supplies purchased surface water to Arlington, Virginia.
  2. Does Arlington County test its tap water?
    Yes. Like every public water system, Arlington County must test its water under the federal Safe Drinking Water Act and publish an annual water quality report (Consumer Confidence Report). Ask the utility for the latest report or look for it on its website.
  3. How do I contact Arlington County?
    Call 703-228-6555 or visit 2100 Clarendon Blvd, Suite 511, Arlington, VA 22201, or use the contact options on the utility’s website.
  4. Does Arlington County water contain lead?
    Water usually leaves the treatment plant without lead. Lead can enter tap water from older service lines, solder and brass fixtures inside homes, especially when water sits in the pipes. Run the tap before drinking if water has been sitting, and ask the utility about lead testing and service line records.
  5. Is Arlington County water hard?
    Hardness depends on the source and changes over time. The annual water quality report lists hardness, or you can test it at home. If it is above about 7 grains per gallon, a water softener sized to your measured hardness will stop scale and spotting.
