MGM Grand Casino–Detroit Lead Service Line Inventory
About This Water System
MGM Grand Casino–Detroit serves approximately 3,700 people in Michigan (PWS ID: MI0070015). The system draws from surface water sources.
Lead Service Line Status
The water system has not yet completed a lead service line inventory. This means the utility has not publicly documented how many lead service lines exist in their distribution system or where they are located.
Lead service lines are pipes made of lead that connect the water main (the large pipe under the street) to individual buildings. Water can pick up lead as it travels through these pipes—even in homes where the interior plumbing is lead-free. This is one of the most direct routes for lead to enter drinking water.
What This Means for You
If you live or work in an area served by MGM Grand Casino–Detroit, you don't yet know whether your building has a lead service line based on publicly available information from the utility.
The EPA requires all water systems to complete and maintain a lead service line inventory. If this system has not finished that work, it is behind schedule. Federal law originally set a deadline of October 16, 2024, for most systems to complete their inventories, though some systems requested extensions.
Finding Out About Your Property
Contact MGM Grand Casino–Detroit directly to ask:
- Whether a lead service line serves your building
- If they have internal records or maps showing service line materials
- When they plan to complete their full inventory
You can also have a licensed plumber inspect the pipe where it enters your property—the material is often visible in basements, crawl spaces, or mechanical rooms.
Getting Your Water Tested
If you're concerned about lead in your tap water, the most reliable way to know is to test it. Many water systems offer free or low-cost testing kits. Contact your water utility for details.
For guidance on water testing and health concerns, the CDC's lead and drinking water page has evidence-based information.
