City of Greensboro issued the following announcement on Jan. 6.
In an effort to address where underground lead piping still exists on private property, the City is asking for your help.
The Water Resources Department’s Lead & Copper Compliance program involves residents and business owners with Greensboro water.
Those folks are asked to locate the indoor section of their service line, test the line’s material to see what it is, and then report the results to the City. The entire process should take no more than 15 minutes.
Step-by-step directions and how to report your findings (referred to as the “Survey”) are located at https://www.greensboro-nc.gov/LeadCopper.
Knowing what materials service lines are made of helps Water Resources inventory those lines and identify potential risks of lead exposure.
