Report Water Waste
If you see water waste that does not meet these rules, please call Lakehurst Water at 303-985-7895.
2020 Consumer Confidence Report Is Available on the District Website
Each year the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) mandates that all public water systems provide their customers with a water quality update called the Consumer Confidence Report (CCR).
Since Lakehurst operates under a contract with Denver Water, it is Denver Water’s duty to monitor and report on the quality of our treated water.
The CCR from Denver contains information regarding water quality regulations as well as recent testing results and evaluations.
District customers may log onto Lakehurst’s website - www.lakehurstwater.org - to view the CCR, or call the District office - 303-985-7895 - or Denver Water - 303-628-6000 - with questions.
Employee Spot Lite
If you have been a resident of Lakehurst for any length of time, you have most likely had a conversation at one time or another with our Field Supervisor, Brian Hodges. Brian has worked for the district for 31 years.
Brian’s duties include, but are not limited to, organizing, assigning, and supervising daily work schedules for the operations staff. He oversees and provides inspection services for all new developer projects in the district as well. He is also responsible for coordinating all utility locate requests within the district service area for all excavations.
Brian is the District’s Operator in Responsible Charge (ORC), currently holding a Class 2 Water and Sewer Operator’s Certification.
Born and raised in Colorado, Brian loves the outdoors and spends his non-working hours hunting, fishing, and finding new trails off road. Brian states he enjoys classic cars, US made hot rods, and drag racing as a few of his pastime activities.
Lakehurst is very fortunate to have an employee with as much historical knowledge as Brian has and his willingness to go that “extra mile” to help a district customer out no matter what the issue may be.
Providing an Important Service for All Lakehurst Customers
Lakehurst owns, operates, and maintains over 70 miles of sanitary sewer lines of various size. Closed Circuit Television Inspections (CCTV) of the system are performed on an annual schedule with each zone televised every three years. These inspections assess the overall condition of the pipe in real time and provides the district important data to determine a cost-effective replacement or rehabilitation schedule. Another very important service that is provided by this effort is when roots are spotted at a customer’s sewer service connection, a photo is taken of the tap and sent, along with a letter, to the property for notification. Any roots that protrude from the tap into the main are removed by our contractor at the time of inspection. However, it is important for each customer that receives a letter/photo to follow-up with maintenance of their service line by a qualified plumbing contractor. Please remember, the sewer service line is the pipe that connects the house/business to the districts mainline. This service pipe, including the connection, is completely owned, and maintained by the property owner from the house/business to the mainline.
