Lead Service Line Inventory
The City of Garnavillo is required to conduct Lead and Copper testing at least every three years at various locations throughout our water distribution system. There is no safe level of lead exposure. In drinking water, the primary source of lead is from pipes, which can present a risk to the health of children and adults.
On December 16, 2021, the EPA announced its next steps to strengthen the regulatory framework on lead in drinking water. With their new proposed guidelines, a database of materials used in our water customer’s service lines and plumbing is required. You can visit https://www.epa.gov/ground-water-and-drinking-water/revised-lead-and-copper-rule to learn more about the EPA requirements.
We are asking you to complete the survey by Monday, September 9th, 2024 to allow us time to make appointments if necessary and to complete the required paperwork.
