Water Quality
Coal Creek Utility District is proud to offer our customers the high quality drinking water that meets or exceeds all federal, state and local quality standards.
Each year, we publish a Water Quality Report to share important information about our drinking water. In this report, you'll find information on the source of our water, how we test for possible harmful bacteria, how we monitor the quality throughout the year and what we have planned for ongoing protection of our water supply.
In addition, the District publishes a Lead and Copper Report. The information in this report is designed to help you determine if you are at risk from drinking water that contains significant levels of lead or copper. Our water supply is clean and safe, but if your home was built before 1985, when lead-based solder was banned, it is a good idea to check your own pipes. Plus, when using your water, it is good idea to flush water that has been standing in the system for six hours or longer before using it for cooking or drinking.
If your home does not meet the "high risk" factors, you may still be at risk from lead leaching from brass faucets. You only need to run 6-8 ounces of water to flush what is inside the faucet.
Coal Creek Utility District is committed to helping protect our customers health. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the District at 425-235-9200.
