Lead Service Line Inventory Update

1/24/2025

To continue the work of developing an inventory of the water service line materials on the system, the next phase of the process will involve onsite verifications. Moore Engineering is working to document these service line materials and you will see them throughout the City over the course of the next couple of weeks starting on Monday, January 28th. A portion of their job includes a visual inspection of the service line as it enters the building.   The Moore Engineering employees will be in Moore Engineering vests and be working in teams of two.

If you prefer to complete this documentation yourself, you are still able to complete the online survey. Successful completion of the online survey will eliminate the need for someone to enter the building for documentation purposes. Click the link below to access the survey. It will take approximately 5 minutes and walk you through how to find your property’s water service pipe. You will need a coin, magnet, and smartphone. Please follow the directions in the survey for specifics.

This inventory is part of a nationwide initiative and the North Dakota Department of Environmental Quality requests that residents and property owners in the City of Buffalo submit information on their water service pipe material. This initiative will allow water providers to document the presence of lead service pipes in their systems. 

We appreciate your cooperation!
