About the Division
The Water Treatment Division of the Public Service Department is responsible for the supply, filtration, pumping and storage of potable water for the City of Kent.
The City’s water plant treats more than two million gallons of water per day (MGD) and has a capacity of 6 million gallons of water daily.
Per the Lead and Copper Rules, Public Water Systems were required to develop and maintain a Service Line Inventory. A service line is the underground pipe that supplies your home or building with water. To view types of service lines in the City, please review the Service Line Inventory, which lists the material type(s) for your location, if you participated in the survey. If you did not participate in the survey but would like to do so, it is available.
The survey will take 5-10 minutes to complete, and the information will be sent directly to us. It contains a QR code, web address, email, phone number, for information. If you do not have the water bill, the link and QR code can be found on this flyer. For help with finding your water meter and determining what type of water line you have, this guide is a useful resource.
