A September 2016 water main break in Lititz led Warwick Township to issue, then extend, a boil water advisory. What happened, and what residents should do when the next one comes.
Pennsylvania Health Department figures from 2015 showed more than 7 percent of tested young children in the 17543 ZIP code with elevated blood lead. How those numbers compare and what has changed.
Lititz Borough and Warwick Township received a regional EPA source water award in December 2012, during the same years the state later said lead sampling rules were broken.
In 2016 the borough identified roughly 300 properties served through lead goosenecks. What a gooseneck is, why it matters, and where today’s service line inventory fits in.
A 2016 state notice found Warwick Township had not sampled for lead correctly in its Lititz-area and Rothsville systems. A look at the findings and the rules that apply now.
In 2016 Pennsylvania regulators said Lititz Borough had not followed the federal Lead and Copper Rule. Here is what the notice covered and what residents can check today.
