Notice of Unknown Drinking Water Service Line Material This notice is sent to you by: Snowville Town PWS#02020, on 11/6/2024. Este informe contiene información muy importante sobre su agua potable. Tradúzcalo o hable con alguien que lo entienda bien. This notice is to inform you that the water service line to the address above has been identified as unknown material. This means that it could be made of lead. The service line material is unknown on one or both (utility/property owner) sides of the service line. Read on to find actions you can take and answers to common questions. What is a service line? A service line is an underground pipe that carries water from the water main, commonly in the street, into your home or building. The water system is typically responsible for the section of the service line from the main to the property line, with the property owner responsible for the service line from the property line on. What does it mean that my service line is made of unknown material? Your service line material is not known, but could be lead. How can I figure out if my service line is made of lead? To ensure safe drinking water, contact us to help you identify the material of your service line. If you are unsure how to locate your service line or identify the material, we can assist you. Call the Sunrise Engineering lead service line questions hotline at (801) 838-8357 for help with questions or to schedule a time to have someone assist in verifying your service line material. If your water service line contains lead, Snowville Town will contact you to discuss replacement options. Report your water service line material. Scan this code with your phone to navigate to the reporting website Or go to: http://tinyurl.com/4fs66uvj What are the health effects of lead? Exposure to lead in drinking water can cause serious health effects in all age groups: Infants and children can have decreases in IQ and attention span. Lead exposure can lead to new learning and behavior problems or exacerbate existing learning and behavior problems. Children who are exposed to lead before or during pregnancy can have increased risk of these adverse health effects. Adults can have increased risks of heart disease, high blood pressure, kidney, or nervous system problems. To learn more, visit CDC.gov and search 'drinking water' and 'lead' How can I reduce my exposure to lead in drinking water? Lead can get in your drinking water as it passes through the plumbing in your house or when it sits in lead pipes for a while. If the material of your pipes is unknown and may be lead, you can reduce your exposure to lead in your drinking water by taking the following steps: Let the water run for 3-5 minutes before using it for drinking or cooking if the water has not been turned on in over six hours (other ways to flush your line may include taking a shower, running the dishwasher, or doing laundry). Boiling water does NOT remove lead. Clean the screens and aerators in faucets frequently to remove captured lead particles. Use cold water for drinking, making food, and making baby formula. Hot water releases more lead from pipes than cold water. Test your water periodically. Contact your utility and ask if they have any lead sampling programs for their customers. Identify and replace plumbing fixtures containing lead: Faucets and fittings sold before 2014 are more likely to contain lead. Find other ways to get or treat your water, like using bottled water or water filters. You can find certified filters that remove lead by searching online for 'certified lead filters' Use only certified 'lead-free' piping and materials for plumbing when building or remodeling. For more information or if you disagree with the service line material categorization, please contact us.
