               RIDGEWOOD WATER 
     DRINKING WATER INFORMATION

Ridgewood Water found elevated levels of lead in drinking water in some homes/buildings in our community.  Lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and children 6 years and younger.

Drinking water is one possible sourse of lead exposure.  The main sources of exposure are lead-based paint and lead-contaminated dust or soil.

To reduce your exposure to lead in your water:  (1) Run the cold water for 15-30 seconds to flush out lead, (2) Use only cold water for consumptive purposes, and (3) Do not boil water to remove lead.

For more information call Ridgewood Water at 201-670-5520 or visit our website at http://water.ridgewoodnj.net
