FRYEBURG, Maine — The new owner of Poland Spring on Thursday reacted to news that one of Fryeburg Water Co.’s wells that was used for the public’s drinking water was contaminated by saying that the well Poland Spring uses had not been affected by pollution and that Poland Spring water also is filtered for such chemicals.

The Fryeburg Water Co. in a recent letter to customers said it had stopped using one of its wells after tests revealed unacceptable levels of PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) contamination.
