Initial Service Line Materials Inventory

Elko New Market has completed and submitted our service line materials inventory to the Minnesota Department of Health.  The service line inventory is publicly available and you can check the materials for your service line by visiting the Lead Inventory Tracking Tool (LITT) at https://maps.umn.edu/LSL/ you may also contact us at info@ci.enm.mn.us.  To complete the service line inventory of our system, Public Works identified areas within the water system that were constructed before 1986 when the Safe Drinking Water Act was amended, prohibiting the use of pipes, solder or flux that were not "lead free" in public water systems or plumbing in facilities providing water for human consumption.  All service lines installed before 1986 were visually inspected during meter installations.  As of 8/1/2024, our inventory contains 0 lead, 0 galvanized requiring replacement, 0 unknown material and 1635 non-lead service lines.
