Calgary Journal See the full article. Calgary homeowners and renters alike are able to find out what their water pipes are made of, thanks to a new interactive map published by the City of Calgary. The city’s Public Water Service Lines map provides information about the public portion of a water line — which falls within the city’s jurisdiction — but not for the private side, which is managed by the property owner. “The city’s Open Data portal is provided in the spirit of openness, accountability, and transparency,” reads a statement from Sheila Johnstone, media relations for the city. Residents can type in their address and see what material makes up the public service line that brings water to their property from the city’s water mains. Once it is typed in, information about the material type will appear, along with installation data information and pipe diameter. The map is included within the ‘lead and water service lines’ section of the city’s water services webpage, several clicks away from the City of Calgary homepage. See the full article.
