Hart Water Department - Understanding your Water Service Line
Why did I receive a letter about my service line?
New Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) regulations require us to notify all customers served through a water service line made of lead, galvanized steel that is or was downstream of lead, or unknown materials. It is meant to explain the health risks of lead exposure, share simple precautions that can be taken to minimize exposure, and where to find more information.
The letter does not mean that lead is present in your drinking water. Starting in 2025, EGLE requires all public water systems to send this notification to customers annually. New customers will also receive a copy when they begin service. You will continue to receive a copy of this letter each year until your service line material is confirmed to be non-lead or is replaced unless it is determined it does not have to be replaced.
Is my water safe to drink?
The Hart City Water Department treats, tests, and distributes high-quality drinking water to you and the community. Water provided by the Hart Water Department is lead-free when it leaves our wells.
We regularly test our water for lead and other contaminants in accordance with EGLE standards. Our water consistently meets or exceeds all federal and state safety standards, and in all of our sampling, lead levels have NEVER exceeded the EGLE’s regulation level.
Read more about the City of Hart Water Department and the Lead Service Line replacement plan in the attached file below.
Please visit Michigan.gov/MILeadSafe for more information about sources of lead and what you can do to reduce your exposure.
