Hello, According to our record The building you live in, 11 Granville place does have a lead water service pipe. Thank you for your response to the information you received from the City of Malden regarding the potential for elevated lead levels in drinking water. It is important to understand that the water source and the water mains that distribute the water contain no lead and therefore do not have elevated lead levels. In older properties, typically built prior to the 1980’s, the water pipe to the property or the components of a properties water system may contain lead. To participate in the water test that the city is offering please pick up a water sample bottle, which has instructions at Malden City Hall, 17 Pleasant St., 2nd floor Engineering Office. Hours: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday from 8 am – 4 pm. Tuesday 8 am – 7 pm. This water test will determine the lead level in the water, the test is free of charge. If you have have any questions please call us at 7813977040

Thank you, I will visit city hall to pick up a test kit.
