Lead water line replacement
You are likely aware of the nation-wide effort to identify and replace lead water lines in homes and municipal systems. Battle Ground does not have any known lead utility mains, however a few homes may have lead connections on service lines. Work will commence this year to assess specific areas that were developed during the time lead connections were available for use.
Opposition to Pipeline
The Conservancy Directors and Town Council are united in opposition to a project initiated by the Indiana Economic Development Corporation (IEDC) which could divert millions of gallons of water daily from Tippecanoe County for industrial use in Boone County. Two citizen groups are actively seeking involvement of government to protect our families and business from potential harms. Tippecanoe County Commissioners have created a moratorium limiting the amount of water pumped until more research and evaluation can be obtained. Resolution 23-29
Fall Watermain Flush
Historic Battle Ground and River Bluff water mains will have seasonal maintenance, with flushing during daytime hours 8 AM to 3 PM the week of September 15-19.
The following week, the upper system along CR 600 North which includes all the subdivisions and service on 300E and Prophets’ Rock Road, will be flushed at night from around 10 PM to 5 AM on 9/22 – 9/25.
Homes with water filters should not experience discoloration, however may want to check for filter change shortly after the flush. If you are concerned about discoloration in residential service lines, open the lowest fixture in your home (main floor or basement) and let water run a few seconds to determine it is clear. If discoloration does not run clear after a couple minutes, please contact the utility office by email or 765-567-2603.
