City of Boulder Releases 2024 Drinking Water Quality Report

The City of Boulder is committed to providing safe and high-quality drinking water to the community. Each year, the city releases a water quality report to share important information about Boulder's drinking water, water sources and regulatory monitoring results. The 2024 report can be viewed on the city's website.

Key takeaways:

• The city routinely monitors drinking water and is required to meet federal and state standards for certain water quality parameters. As in past years, the city met these water quality standards in 2023.
• The city has several high-quality sources of drinking water that originate in high mountain snowpack. The city's updated Source Water Protection Planidentifies potential contaminants and best practices to protect the city's water supply.
• The city is conducting a Water Service Line Inventory to meet new federal regulations. The purpose of the inventory is to determine if any service lines-the pipes that bring drinking water into homes and businesses-are made of lead and need to be replaced. Though copper pipes have been required in Boulder since 1955, and city staff aren't aware of any lead lines in the city, community members who live and work in pre-1956 structures are encouraged to verify their pipes are not made of lead and share that information with city staffvia an online tool.
