Lead and Copper Service Line Inventory Statement

Harris County Water Control and Improvement District No. 96 (the “District”) has no lead service lines nor galvanized service lines requiring replacement.

The District reached this determination because its water distribution system was installed after 1988, the year that Texas implemented the Safe Drinking Water Act banning the use of lead for any public water lines.

Additionally, the District has found no evidence of the use of lead service lines (i) in the system records, including distribution system maps and drawings, historical records, meter installation records, inspections and records of the distribution system that indicate the material composition, or (ii) when reading water meters or performing maintenance activities in the course of normal system operations.

Should you have any questions, please contact the District at 713-850-9000.
