Service Line Material Annual Mailing 2027

This is a service outline document for the Philadelphia Water Department (PWD) detailing the design and contents of an annual service line notification mailing packet for 2027. The project involves the production and mailing of full-color notification letters and supplemental fact sheets to residential properties in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, informing property owners of their service line material composition based on PWD records. The mailing packet consists of a #10 envelope with pre-paid postage indicia and printed return address, containing one customized letter (8.5" x 11", double-sided, full color) and four supplemental fact sheets covering lead plumbing basics, service line materials and maps, flushing instructions, and options to replace service lines. Letters are customized based on five service line material categories: lead, lead in pilot area, galvanized material, galvanized material in pilot area, and incomplete records, with content available in both English and Spanish. Each mailing packet includes all five sheets regardless of material category.

The document outlines specific content requirements for each letter variant, including notification language, flushing instructions with diagrams, health information, and guidance on service line replacement options including HELP loan programs, private plumber hiring, and planned construction work coordination. The mailing addresses a planning address of 123 Main Road, Philadelphia, PA 19000. The document is dated June 10, 2026, and establishes the framework for the 2027 annual notification cycle. The related contract opportunity indicates this is a micro purchase to be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with the award potentially made as a whole or by line item at the City's discretion, and bidders must quote all items to be eligible for award.
