Partial replacement of service lines, where there is still lead or galvanized previously
connected to lead materials remaining when service is restored, are banned due to increased
lead exposure and potential health risks, except in the case of emergencies like a leak or loss
of pressure.
Please understand that if you choose to not participate and have your water lines replaced, it can result in your water service being terminated. For questions, please contact the water department at 313.865-1876.
