City requests assistance from Utility Customers

Marceline, MO - The City of Marceline, Missouri is requesting utility customers assistance in completing a lead service line inventory for the City by filling out a Lead Service Line Inventory Survey by January 31, 2024.  This lead service line inventory is a requirement by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MoDNR) as is all public water systems by October 16, 2024.  The service line materials used for both the City and customer side of water meters for all connections to the City water supply system need to be verified as part of this inventory. The City has contracted with Bartlett & West, an engineering firm located in Jefferson City, to assist in conducting our lead service line inventory, which is being primarily funded through grant funds from MoDNR.

The City will be mailing out the Lead Service Line Inventory Customer Surveys the week of December 4, 2023. Customers can either complete the hard copy surveys or they may complete them online via the link: https://arcg.is/00T85D or through the QR code below. If customers prefer to complete the hard copy surveys, they can submit them to: Bartlett & West, 601 Monore Street, Suite 201, Jefferson City, MO 65101.  Additional hard copy surveys can be picked up at City Hall or printed from the City’s website.  

If the customer does not know the material composition of their service line, they can perform a visual inspection where it enters the home / business / building using the information and guidance provided in the hard copy survey or survey links. Service lines can be made of many different materials such as plastic, copper, galvanized and lead.  The age of your home will indicate if a lead service line could be present.  The led ban that prohibited the use of lead in potable water supply systems became effective on January 1, 1989. 

If you have any questions, please contact Water / Wastewater Superintendent Matt Gibson at matt.gibson@marcelinemo.us
