Lead Replacement Program

Aurora Water is committed to protecting public health by delivering safe and dependable water to our communities and businesses. Ensuring that every Aurora Water customer has access to safe, quality drinking water is Aurora Water’s top priority.

To protect public health, Aurora Water will be identifying and removing water service lines containing lead for free.

A water service line is the pipe that runs from the water main to a home or building’s internal plumbing. These pipes carry water from the city’s water main into homes and other buildings.

Before 1954, lead was a common material used for water service lines. The area where Aurora Water is focusing the Lead Replacement Program is among the oldest parts of Aurora and most of it was built even before Aurora had its own water department.

Most of the addresses Aurora Water is investigating are in Original Aurora, between 6th Avenue and 25th Avenue and east to west from Yosemite Street to Peoria Street.

Lead was commonly used for water service lines in 1953 and earlier. Aurora Water is in the process of identifying and removing these lines. If you believe you have a lead line, contact us at 720.859.4411 or [email protected].

Para determinar el material de la línea de servicio, Aurora Water tiene que excavar dos hoyos de 6 pulgadas en su propiedad. Cuando esté terminado, se rellenarán los agujeros y se restaurará el paisaje a su estado original.

Dado que Aurora Water no es propietaria de la línea de servicio de agua desde la casa hasta el medidor de agua, primero debemos obtener el permiso del dueño de la propiedad para excavar.
To determine the water service line material, Aurora Water must pothole or dig two, 6-inch holes on your property. When finished, the holes will be filled, and the landscape restored to its original condition. 

Since Aurora Water does not own the water service line from the home to the water meter, we must first have the property owner's permission to pothole.
