Good afternoon,
Here is a link to the service line inventory map: https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/90037ef48d37404ea44e09efaaddd588. Any resident in our service territory can look up their address to see what we have on record for their service line (both customer and utility side). Aquarion’s website has a comprehensive set of lead information as well: https://www.aquarionwater.com/water-quality/learn-about-lead This is a great resource. Also, here is a link to the Consumer Confidence Report for the most recent year for the Bridgeport Main System: https://www.aquarionwater.com/docs/default-source/water-quality/water-quality-reports/ct/2023/bridgeportmain_ccr_2023.pdf?sfvrsn=64d7a1bc_12.
Aquarion stresses that they consistently comply with all Federal and State water quality standards, including those for lead. Even if a customer has lead service lines, Aquarion is adjusting the chemistry in the water to prevent corrosion that could result in lead in the tap. Before these new rules, that was the long-standing regulation to protect consumers from lead. The lead service line inventory is a belt and suspenders approach across the country to remove lead from drinking water infrastructure. The water has been, and will continue to be, safe.
We are thrilled to announce the Connecticut Paraeducator of the Year as our own Ms. Keysha Evans!! She was also named Paraeducator of the Year in the town of Trumbull.
