CAUD asking customers to help identify lead pipes From Ashley Bennett Columbia/Adair Utilities District Many of you have received a card in the mail stating that "Your water service line has been identified as being made of an unknown material," and are wondering what it is all about. By this we are hoping to help you understand a little bit better. Basically, the EPA office is requiring that we collect some type of proof of what type of water line is coming into the home or establishment. A photo would be the best form of proof. If a photo could be taken of the line/pipe that comes into the home and emailed to ashley.bennett@caud.net, that would be much appreciated. If you are unable to send an email, please contact our office at 270-384-2181 for further instructions. Thank you for your cooperation and patience as we navigate this process together. --CAUD The card that was mailed says the following: Columbia/Adair Utilities District is working to identify the material of all the service lines serving customers in our system. We have not been able to determine the material of the line connected to your home. To help us determine the material, please contact us at 270.384.2181 for assistance. For more information about why we are doing this and how to identify the material on your own, check out bit.ly/checkyourpipesky or epa.gov/lead.Steps to reduce potential exposure to lead include
Health Effects of Lead Exposure Exposure to lead in drinking water can cause serious health effects in all age groups. Infants and children can have decreases in IQ and attention span. Lead exposure can lead to new learning and behavior problems or exacerbate existing learning and behavior problems. The children of women who are exposed to lead before or during pregnancy can have increased risk of these adverse health effects. Adults can have increased risks or heart disease, high blood pressure, kidney or nervous system problems.
