Silver Lake Water & Sewer District’s drinking water remains safe and protected from contaminants, including the group of manmade chemicals labeled per- and polyfluoroalkyl (PFAS) substances. Contact Us Silver Lake Water & Sewer District’s drinking water remains safe and protected from contaminants, including the group of manmade chemicals labeled per- and polyfluoroalkyl (PFAS) substances. The District sources its water from the City of Everett. Due to the protected nature of their watershed, which prohibits activities like firefighting training, manufacturing, and agriculture, there are no point sources of PFAS within our source water. What are Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS)? PFAS are a group of chemicals that are used widely and are commonly found in things like firefighting foam agents, the manufacture of non-stick materials for cooking (such as Teflon), and fabric protectants. Learn More: Environmental Protection Agency Washington State Dep't. of Health Background and History of PFAS Monitoring In 2016, The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released a health advisory for drinking water pertaining to two of the compounds found in the PFAS group: Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and Perflourooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS). Health advisory levels are non-enforceable guidelines that are intended to protect human health. The health advisory level is 0.07 parts per billion (ppb) for PFOA and PFOS combined. The Washington State Board of Health (WSBOH) recently revised the Group A drinking water rules to require water systems to monitor for select PFAS compounds beginning in 2023. WSBOH established state action levels (SALs) for five selected PFAS compounds as follows: Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) - 0.010 ppb Perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) - 0.015 ppb Perfluorononanoic acid (PFNA) - 0.009 ppb Perfluorohexane sulfonic acid (PFHxS) - 0.065 ppb Perfluorobutane sulfonic acid (PFBS) - 0.345 ppb Exceeding a confirmed SAL requires a water system to provide public notification and follow-up monitoring. While exceeding a SAL does not require a water system to treat for the contaminant, the SALs are intended to advise water systems on when to take action to lower contaminant levels to provide for safe, long-term consumption of drinking water. Testing Your Drinking Water for PFAS In 2015, Silver Lake Water & Sewer District participated in monitoring for PFAS in its drinking water under the Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule 3 (UCMR 3). No PFAS compounds were detected in the Districts drinking water as shown in Table 1 below: Table 1: In 2023 through May 2024, the District monitored our drinking water quarterly for an expanded list of PFAS compounds under the EPA’s current Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR 5 ) . Once again, no PFAS compounds were detected in the District's drinking water as shown in Table 2 below: Table 2:

Now almost 90 years later, we provide this service to over 18,773 homes and businesses, encompassing over 56,000 individuals. As of 2022, our customer base consumed an average of 4.1 million gallons of water per day and 1.5 billion gallons per year.

From the lake, water travels to the City of Everett's water treatment plant, where it undergoes coagulation, flocculation, filtration and disinfection, before being distributed to the Clearview Water Supply Agency, of which Silver Lake Water and Sewer District is one of three members.

Replace worn toilet flappers, and consider replacing old toilets with water-saving newer models. Learn more Faucets are the second most common cause of water leaks. Replace rubber washers and gaskets in your faucets, hoses and shower heads. Learn more Take showers instead of baths: a 4-5 minute shower uses roughly 10 gallons of water compared to up to 50 gallons for a bath. Take shorter showers: every minute is 2.5 gallons! Install energy efficient shower heads, toilets, and faucet nozzles. Turn off the tap while shaving or brushing teeth. Fix leaky faucets, hose bibs, sprinkler heads, and toilet flappers. Wash large loads of laundry and wait until your dishwasher is full to run it. If you've only got a few dirty plates or you're in a small household where it's not practical to wait until the dishwasher's full, you're better off washing in the sink. Just remember to turn off the water while you're scrubbing. When changing out your pet's water dish or draining the aquarium to clean, use the old water on house plants. Pay close attention to your containers: unglazed terra cotta clay containers are beautiful, but they dry out quickly. Wherever possible, choose glazed ceramic, plastic, or other hard-material pots. During Summer's Peak Usage / Higher Rates Check irrigation systems for freeze damage, broken parts, and slow leaks (this tip can save schools and other municipal facilities thousands of dollars every year!) Unusually damp or green patches of grass are usually the first sign of a leak. Inspect your irrigation system for leaks and breaks at least once a month while it is being used. Water early or late in the day to reduce evaporation. Avoid watering in the head of the day and/or when it's windy. Apply water to the roots, not the foliage: Watering the roots reduces evaporation and the risk of plant disease. Using tools that direct water to the roots—like a water wand or a drip irrigation system—will help keep water where it is most useful. Water outdoor plants twice a week; apply directly by hand. Install drip irrigation for maximum watering efficiency. Apply a layer of mulch around plants to help retain water. Let your lawn go dormant: water deeply once a month to keep roots alive. Use a broom or ShopVac rather than a hose to clean sidewalks, driveways and patios, rather than hosing them down—this can save up to 150 gallons each time! Save pressure washing jobs until Fall rains return. Wash cars less often, at locations that recycle water. Turn off your garden hose at the faucet, not at the nozzle (nozzles are notorious for slow leaks).

Silver Lake Water & Sewer District provides utility service to over 56,000 customers in the Bothell, Washington region since 1934. Contact Us How can I tell if I have a water leak? Unexpected high water usage (and the resulting high water bills) may indicate a leak. To check for a leak yourself, make sure all the water is turned off at your house, and then check the “low flow indicator” on your water meter to see if it is moving. The low flow indicator is usually a small dial, red or black triangle, or blue snow flake, that spins when very small amounts of water move through the meter. If the indicator is moving, and every water faucet is turned off in your home, you may have a water leak. Some leaks are very small, so the indicator may move very slowly or intermittently. You can also call us to perform a leak check: we provide one free leak check a year by a District field technician. Who do I contact before I dig? Whether you're having a new fence or deck built, removing an old tree stump, planting or removing a tree or bush, or anything involving digging into the ground more than a few inches, please DIAL 811 to request a FREE underground utility location BEFORE you dig. You can also request this service online at their website: washington811.com. We may also be able to provide you an "As-Built" drawing of your sewer system upon request. Request As-Builts. Am I responsible to have my water or sewer lines repaired? Yes, customers are responsible for maintaining and repairing their private water and sewer systems.
