Oak Ridge Water Quality – What You Should Know

Oak Ridge’s water is supplied by the Oak Ridge Water Treatment Plant, which draws its water from Melton Hill Lake, a reservoir of the Clinch River. While the water is treated to meet EPA safety standards, treatment alone doesn’t eliminate all contaminants — especially those that enter from aging pipes and infrastructure.

What’s in Oak Ridge’s Water?

Recent water quality reports show that Oak Ridge water complies with federal guidelines. Still, low levels of copper, lead, chlorine byproducts, and nitrates were found. Copper and lead are particularly common in older plumbing systems and can’t be removed by city filtration alone.
