What this site is
WaterMainCall is a referral service, not a contractor. We connect homeowners with independent contractors. Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands, and work on a service line is normally permitted and often coordinated with the utility — ask to see the permit. We carry out no work, we test no water, we do not set prices, and we never charge homeowners anything. Nothing here is a statement about the water at any address.Jackson in numbers

The annual notice
Your water system publishes a consumer confidence report every year. It is the document that tells you what is in the supply before it reaches your pipe.
Whose half is it
The utility normally owns the main and the portion to the curb stop; the householder normally owns the run from there to the building. The dividing line differs by utility, and it is worth establishing before anybody digs.
