Water Service Line Material Survey

In July 2021, P.L.2021, Ch.183 (Law) was enacted, requiring all community water systems to replace lead and galvanized service lines in their service area within 10 years. Under the law, the Borough of Lavallette is required to inventory public and private water services to identify all service line materials.

In an effort to report all private water service line materials to the State of New Jersey, the Borough of Lavallette is requesting you, the Homeowner, to inspect your current water service and determine the material that has been installed for your property.

Please click here for more information and to complete the survey.

Fall - September 15th through November 1st
