Black Earth Utilities

The Village of Black Earth Utilities recently completed a survey with the DNR of all known information regarding the water laterals throughout the system. After reviewing our records and compiling an initial Village-wide inventory, it appears that some properties may not have copper or High Density Polyethylene water service laterals. This may mean that some water service laterals might be made of lead or galvanized steel which may increase exposure to lead. If you have received a letter in the mail, we would appreciate your cooperation to help us update our records. To update your property information please follow the survey link : https://arcg.is/1PLeWT, or email: bepublicworks@blackearthwisconsin.com, or call 608-767-2063. We are happy to help answer any questions you may have, and we are also happy to help you with pipe identification.
