Materials available regarding lead in drinking water

The City of Marquette has made available public education materials with information about lead and drinking water. These materials are displayed in City Hall and are also available online at www.marquettemi.gov/LCRPE2025.

This notice is being issued in compliance with state requirements, following water sampling conducted earlier this year. The City regularly tests residential tap water for lead and copper as part of its standard water quality monitoring program. During this summer’s sampling, 6 of 32 homes tested showed lead levels above the state’s Action Level.

Marquette has no known lead in the city’s water mains or service lines. In some homes, however, lead may be present in interior plumbing, fixtures, or solder. The City’s water supply is treated with corrosion control measures designed to minimize lead leaching.

The public education materials, which provide guidance on reducing potential exposure to lead, are available at www.marquettemi.gov/LCRPE2025. Additional information about Marquette’s water system and water quality testing can be found online at www.marquettemi.gov/departments/public-works/water-distribution.
