Veolia is in River Edge as part of its sweeping $159 million program to protect residents by removing lead service lines from the system.

Crews will be working to determine whether homes along various streets have a lead service line. This may include some digging and representatives may also ask for access to the meter of some residents. The Company will restore any areas that are disturbed during this process.
 
If lead is found, Veolia will remove it AT NO COST TO THE HOMEOWNER.
 
You may see small flags marking water and gas lines on properties. This is required ahead of any digging. Please do not disturb the flags.
 
Since 2019, Veolia has had more than a dozen crews working every day to replace lead service lines, the pipes run from the main in the street to an individual home. More than 13,000 lines have been removed so far and this project will continue. Here’s a video of one of the crews in action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQv04aFTGKs
