N.S. MAYPORT Lead Service Line Inventory
N.S. MAYPORT serves about 20,500 people in Florida. Like all public water systems in the US, it is required by federal law to maintain an inventory of lead service lines—the pipes that carry water from the main water line under the street into individual homes.
What we know about N.S. MAYPORT's lead pipes
N.S. MAYPORT has not yet published a public lead service line inventory. This does not mean the system has no lead pipes; it means the data is not yet available online or has not been fully documented.
The system draws water from groundwater sources. Groundwater systems are less likely to be corrosive than surface water systems, which can reduce (but not eliminate) the risk of lead leaching into drinking water. However, lead service lines themselves pose a risk regardless of water source.
Why this matters
Lead service lines can release lead into drinking water, especially in homes with plumbing from older construction. Children and pregnant women are at highest risk from lead exposure. Even low levels of lead can affect development and learning.
Knowing whether your home has a lead service line is the first step to protecting your family. Federal rules now require water systems to share this information with customers.
How to find out if your home has a lead service line
Contact N.S. MAYPORT directly. Ask them:
- Does my address have a lead service line?
- Can they provide a copy of their lead service line inventory?
- If my line is lead or unknown, what free or low-cost replacement options are available?
You can also request a free or low-cost water test through your local health department to check for lead in your tap water right now—you don't need to wait for inventory data.
Next steps for residents
- Call or email N.S. MAYPORT and ask about your specific address's service line material.
- Request a water test from your county health department if you're concerned about lead levels.
- Visit the CDC website for practical steps to reduce lead exposure while you investigate (like flushing your tap and using cold water for drinking and cooking).
- Save receipts if you pay for private water testing; some states offer reimbursement programs.
