Public Notice: Important Update on Water Service Line Inventory Program
We want to keep you in the loop about an essential program happening in our community. Your local water utility is currently working on developing a Service Line Inventory in accordance with the EPA's Lead and Copper Rule (LCR). We're excited to share some key details with you, making sure you're informed and assured about this initiative.
Why the Service Line Inventory?
The Service Line Inventory is a federal requirement aimed at enhancing the safety and reliability of our water infrastructure. It's part of our commitment to ensuring the highest standards in water quality and compliance with national regulations.
It's Not About Water Quality Issues:
We want to emphasize that this program has nothing to do with any suspected deficiencies in our water quality. Your tap water remains safe. This is a proactive measure to ensure we have a comprehensive understanding of our water system.
It's funded!
Here's the good news......we secured funding that allows us to carry out this Service Line Inventory without any impact on your utility bills. We believe in being fiscally responsible and leveraging opportunities to benefit our community, and this funding helps us do just that.
What to Expect:
Over the coming weeks, you may notice our teams' conducting surveys and assessments around the neighborhood. This is simply part of compiling accurate information about our water service lines. You may see the type of utility work shown in the picture below in your area. The contractor is using air to break up the soil in a small area to suck the soil out of the ground to expose the water lateral material. Afterwards, the hold is backfilled and restored.
Your Cooperation Matters:
We appreciate your cooperation and understanding as we work towards completing this federally mandated program. Your involvement ensures the success of this initiative and contributes to the overall well-being of our community.
If you have any questions or concerns, please call 540-726-3260.
Thank you for being a valued part of our community!
