DEP's pilot program is free and currently available for homes in Bronx Community Boards 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9.
You cannot request to participate in this program.
Homeowners deemed eligible to participate will:
- Receive a phone call, email, or program notification letter in the mail from DEP
- Need to sign and return a Property Owner Consent form
- Not be charged on their water bills or property taxes
- Have their lead service line replaced with a new copper line
Only homeowners who have received a program notification letter, phone call, or email from DEP are eligible. If you’ve received a program notification in the mail, you should sign and return the Property Owner Consent form to DEP as soon as possible. Only property owners may sign the waiver.
Learn more about the program.
Use DEP’s map to check an address’s water service line.
If you need to update your service line material records, you can submit your water service line change through DEP's Permit and Review Information System (PARIS) website, nyc.gov/dep/PARIS.
The PARIS Service Line Identification User Manual has instructions on how to create an account and submit your information.
If you need guidance on how to identify the material of your water service line, DEP has an informational flyer: Help Identify Your Service Line Today Flyer.
