Winthrop plumbing systems
"The system receives fully treated water from the MWRA." Average consumption is about 1 million gallons per day with seasonal daily peaks around 2.5 million gallons; "The MWRA supply system has been analyzed to be able to provide up to 8 million gallons per day, with the Town's aging pipe network being the limiting factors in most neighborhoods." The Water Division maintains about 630 fire hydrants, 46 miles of water mains, a million-gallon standpipe and a duplex pressure regulation valve station.
FY2020 accomplishment: "Removed 71 Full lead and 15 Partial lead service lines which exceeded DEP's mandate to remove at least 7% (69) of the Town's remaining full lead service lines from the water distribution system." The Water Division also runs the Town's cross-connection control program.
In 2014 the Water Division repaired 5 water main breaks and relaid 89 lead services with copper — 10 by in-house staff and 79 under an MWRA-funded water main replacement project — which also replaced approximately 3,200 feet of water main in excess of 75 years old. The system was then described as 46 miles of buried main, a 1-million-gallon standpipe, 500 fire hydrants and 4,500 service connections.
MWRA's corrosion control treatment adjusts the water's pH and buffering capacity by adding sodium carbonate (soda ash) and carbon dioxide at the John J. Carroll Water Treatment Plant, which has reduced lead levels in tap water tests by nearly 90% since 1996.
