St. Clair Shores

Lead exposure in drinking water may cause health risks. That's why St. Clair Shores is tracking where lead water service lines exist within our community.

People have been building homes here for nearly 100 years and our records are not always complete.

We are asking our residents to help us by using a simple tool created by National Public Radio (NPR)  that will help you determine if your water service line is lead, copper or galvanized steel.

There are only a couple of steps and all you will need is a coin and a magnet.

By using the tool and sharing your information you will be helping our Department of Public Works and for that we thank you!
Let's get started!
