Door-To-Door Utility Checks To Begin In Summit

SUMMIT, NJ — Over the next few weeks, consultants will be going door-to-door as they test water lines around the community, the City of Summit said.

CDM Smith will be performing evaluations of different water service materials as part of New Jersey American Water's Lead Service Line Replacement Program.

The research will help identify utility and customer side needs so any lead or galvanized lines can be replaced by 2031 as is required under state and federal law.

Residents can continue using their water as usual, officials said.

To learn how to check your service line material and complete a survey to help workers, visit the news area of the City's website here.
