The City Water Department routinely collects water samples from residents’ homes throughout the city to test for toxic levels of lead and copper that may be present in your home’s plumbing system. If you decide to join, testing is easy and only requires you to collect a single water sample from your tap twice over the next 12 months.
We hope you consider adding your residence to our list of sample locations. If interested, please fill out the attached questionnaire and return it to Phyllis in Room 9, City Hall or email to pgaumond@schenectadyny.gov.
