Statesville, North Carolina | August 22, 2022

The Public Utilities Department is excited to announce the kickoff of the City of Statesville Waterline Replacement project. In 2020, a condition assessment study identified several critical distribution and transmission mains through downtown that needed rehabilitation or replacement in the near future. These cast iron waterlines were installed in the 1940s and are increasingly likely to suffer structural damage or failure due to age, resulting in service disruptions and costly repair efforts.

Maintaining reliable access to clean, safe drinking water is essential for the growth and prosperity of our city. We are confident that this strategic investment in our water infrastructure will enhance our quality of life today and will help us continue to provide reliable, safe water to our community for years to come.
