Lead Service Lines at Trumbull Lake Campground
What we know about your water system
Trumbull Lake Campground serves approximately 7,423 people in Nevada. The system draws water from groundwater sources.
As of now, this water system has not completed a lead service line inventory. That means the utility has not yet documented how many homes or buildings are connected to lead pipes—or confirmed that none are.
Why this matters
Lead service lines are pipes made of lead that connect the water main (in the street) to individual homes. Lead can leach into drinking water, especially in newer homes or after water treatment changes. Even small amounts of lead exposure can affect children's development.
The federal government now requires all water systems to inventory their lead service lines and develop plans to replace them. This is a multi-year process for most utilities.
What Trumbull Lake Campground needs to do
Your water system is required to:
- Complete a full inventory of all service lines and identify which ones contain lead
- Provide the inventory to the public (usually online or upon request)
- Develop a replacement schedule for any lead lines found
- Offer free testing to customers who request it
Until the inventory is complete, you won't have definitive answers about your specific property.
Protect your family now
If you're concerned about lead in your water:
- Request a free lead test from your water utility. Ask for a certified laboratory result.
- Use a filter certified to remove lead (look for NSF/ANSI 53 certification) while you wait for more information.
- Let water run for 30 seconds before using it for drinking or cooking, especially in the morning or after long periods without use. This flushes out water that sat in pipes overnight.
- Use cold water for drinking and cooking. Hot water leaches lead faster.
For health concerns, contact your doctor or pediatrician. The CDC has guidance on lead exposure at cdc.gov/lead.
Next steps for residents
- Contact Trumbull Lake Campground directly to ask about their lead service line inventory timeline and request a free water test for your home
- Check back on this page for updates when the inventory is completed
- If your home has visible pipes, look for dull gray metal without shine—that may indicate lead, but only a test confirms it
- Don't panic if you find a lead line—thousands of homes have them and manage the risk through testing and filtration
