Get The Lead Out

The Columbia City Water Department delivers safe and clean drinking water to nearly 10,000 customers every day. The presence of lead water service lines in the system represents a risk of exposure to lead in drinking water. To minimize this risk, the Columbia City Water Department has established the Get the Lead Out (GLO) initiative. The Columbia City Water Department’s goal is to identify and replace 100% of the lead service lines in our water system. For more information please click here.
