Water Service Line Material Map and Information
In accordance with the EPA Lead and Copper Rule Revisions, Chester Water Authority is required to identify all water service line materials in our system. The Water Service line is the pipe that connects your home or business to the large water main in the street. CWA is required to notify all customers if any portion of the water service line is Lead, Galvanized Requiring Replacement, or Unknown. As a customer you may receive a letter in the mail stating “CONSUMER NOTIFICATION OF A LEAD STATUS UNKNOWN SERVICE LINE”. This notification has been sent to all customers where CWA needs to identify the materials on the customer-owned portion of the service line. Please view our Water Service line Material Info for more information on the status of your service line.
Chester Water Authority is a non-profit municipal authority that serves clean, affordable, award-winning water to 34 municipalities in western Delaware County and southern Chester County, Pennsylvania.

Check Out CWA’s Wildlife Cam!
CWA is the steward of 2000+ acres of watershed that surround the Octoraro Reservoir. This includes 100 acres that is set aside with the PA Game Commission to allow for public turkey hunting. This land is home to many animals, and we wanted to bring some of that wildlife to you! You will see deer, raccoons, lots of birds, even cats on our camera installation! Our reservoir is a great birding location to see herons, bald eagles, loons, egrets plus the spring and fall migration of shore birds.
