Why Massachusetts changes the answer
This page earns its place only when the state context changes the testing path, evidence threshold, or the order of next steps.
Immediate orientation
What to do now
Do not assume a passing routine panel covers every bedrock risk that matters for drinking water
Verification path
What to test or compare next
Use certified labs and compare arsenic or radionuclide follow up only after the test scope is clear
