Madison Heights is committed to delivering the highest quality drinking water. Madison Heights purchases its drinking water from the Great Lakes Water Authority (GLWA), whose water source does not contain lead. However, individual lead water service lines and other lead containing plumbing can be a source of lead at individual locations. What Happened?Madison Heights annually conducts testing of tap water in homes for lead and copper. This summer, we collected samples from 30 homes with lead service lines. The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) notified Madison Heights on October 16, 2025, that our community had exceeded the Action Level (AL) for lead at 7 of the 30 homes with lead service lines sampled. Madison Heights issued a Public Notice (PN) on October 17, delivered consumer notices of lead and copper results to those residents/sites that were sampled, and will provide additional information to Madison Heights water customers and the county health department via our annual Consumer Confidence Report (CCR) no later than July 1, 2026.What is Being Done?The Madison Heights Water Department is working to conduct additional lead and/or water quality monitoring, continuing our lead monitoring, and removing the lead service lines. We will collect 60 samples every six months and review the results to determine if corrective actions are necessary to reduce corrosion in household plumbing.Keep Reading: Madison-Heights.org/LeadPublic Education: Madison-Heights.org/LeadPublicEducation
