City of Rochester water customers should have received a letter in the mail along with a survey asking customers to identify the water service line material coming into the home.

Customers are asked to take a few minutes to answer the survey questions online or on the sheet included with the letter and return to the water office. This is a
federal requirement for the water department to begin preparing a plan using the survey results to replace any lead service lines that may be found in the water
system. 

This information will then allow the water department to apply for grants and other financial support to offset any costs associated with a lead service line replacement project in the future.

The city assures that the city water is safe and tested regularly to ensure quality water is provided to all customers.
