PWS ID #4245000 Our Public Water System has no Lead, Galvanized Requiring Replacement (GRR) or Unknown Service Lines On October 8, 2024 MassDEP received Raynham Center Water District's request for approval to release a statement that our system has no service lines of Lead, Galvanized Requiring Replacement (GRR) or unknown materials. This statement is based on the results of a service line inventory that was developed using the following verification method(s):  Field Inspection by PWS Records Review Statistical Analysis Customer Self-Identification Sequential Monitoring Other(s) MassDEP-Approved Method(s):Disclaimer: This statement is based on the initial service line inventory for our system as required by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the Lead and Copper Rule Revisions. This statement does not take into consideration the presence of unknown or lead service line connectors. A gooseneck/pigtail/connector is defined as a piece of pipe typically not exceeding two feet in length that connects the water main to the service line or the service line to the water meter of a building. For information on all service lines in the Raynham Center Water District see http://raynhamcenterwater.com or contact the office at 508-824-0020, Monday thru Thursday 8am - Noon & 1pm - 4pm, and Friday 8am - Noon In 2021, the US EPA published revisions to the Lead and Copper Rule that are intended to better protect children and communities from lead exposure risks and support efforts to remove lead from drinking water. The revisions require Public Water Systems to complete an inventory of all service lines connected to their distribution system. The inventory must include the pipe material and other information for both the system-owned and customer-owned portions of the service line between the water main and a structure and is to be made publicly accessible.  While working towards a lead-free distribution system for all customers, the Raynham Center Water District applied for and received financial assistance under the Massachusetts Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF) to complete the water service line inventory and a potential lead service replacement plan. The work performed for this project included verification of service materials through various records review methods: The Raynham Center Water District completed its inventory and based on the records review data, the water service inventory does not include any lead services. The Raynham Center Water District is committed to providing clean, safe drinking water to all customers and regularly conducts sampling for lead in accordance with all federal and state requirements. Information regarding lead in drinking water is provided in the Water Department's Annual Water Quality Report.
