Methuen Receives $50,000 State Grant To Address Lead Pipes

Methuen received a $50,000 state grant to locate and confirm which water service lines contain lead and to help the city meet federal environmental rules.

The award comes through a state program that provides technical assistance to municipal and tribal governments and is one of four grants made to gateway cities. The program is intended to boost communities’ competitiveness for federal funding, so Methuen can use the money to produce verified records of lead service lines as it pursues federal compliance and potential future federal support.
