Contamination score

Higher = more contaminated vs. other cities.

The City of Aberdeen's own drinking water has tested within safe limits for all monitored contaminants. However, a PFAS groundwater plume traced to a former fire-training pit at nearby Aberdeen Proving Ground has been detected migrating toward Harford County's Perryman well field, with low-level detections at three monitoring locations that remained below the EPA's former 70 ppt health advisory.
