About Forest Green Estates

Forest Green Estates serves about 225 people through 101 service connections, which makes it a very small system under EPA's size classes. It is privately owned and draws groundwater, in Crawford County, New York. EPA system ID: PA6200067; phone on file: 814-464-0319. Call that number and ask whether your address has a lead, galvanized or unknown service line.

Your move

Test your own tap with a certified lab first-draw sample; Chestnut Rdg, NY may offer free or low-cost kits through the utility. If your own line is lead, replacing the private side runs about $1,200-$12,300 (EPA average about $4,700). Ask Forest Green Estates whether it covers that cost before hiring anyone - many utilities now do.

These figures describe homes the utility sampled, not your tap. Only your service line record or a test of your own water answers the question for your house. Why sampled homes are the worst-case ones is in the guide to reading the number. Size matters more than most people expect: small vs large water systems.
