HARBOUR POINT S/D Lead Service Line Inventory
HARBOUR POINT S/D serves about 3,900 people in North Carolina. Like all US water systems, it is required by federal law to identify and track lead service lines—the pipes that connect water mains to homes.
What we know about your water system
HARBOUR POINT S/D has not yet completed a full inventory of lead service lines in its service area. The utility draws water from surface sources (rivers, lakes, or reservoirs), which does not eliminate lead risk—lead enters drinking water primarily through old pipes and plumbing, not the source water itself.
The data shown here reflects the most recent public records available. If no numbers appear below, it means the utility has not yet submitted a complete inventory to regulators or has not made those details public.
What this means for you
If your home was built before 1986, there is a higher chance your service line contains lead. Even homes built after that date can have lead in interior plumbing. The only way to know for certain is to have your water tested or your pipes inspected by a licensed professional.
You are not powerless while waiting for your utility to complete its work. You can:
- Request a free or low-cost water test through your local health department
- Ask your utility whether your home is flagged as having a known lead service line
- Install a point-of-use water filter certified for lead removal if you are concerned about your tap water
- Have a plumber inspect your interior plumbing and fixtures for lead
Next steps for residents
- Contact HARBOUR POINT S/D directly to ask about the status of the lead service line inventory and whether your address is in a high-risk area. Request: (1) their timeline for completing the inventory, and (2) whether your home is known or suspected to have a lead line.
- Get your water tested. Reach out to your county health department or call the EPA's Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791) for a list of certified labs near you.
- If you have young children or are pregnant, consult your pediatrician or OB/GYN about lead exposure risk and testing. The CDC has resources for parents.
