About Mallard Lakes, DE Water
About Mallard Lakes, DE Water
Mallard Lakes is a named Delaware community associated with Sussex County. It may include public-water service, private wells, subdivisions, or noncommunity systems. The anchor location used for this page is a discovery aid, not an address-level boundary. The associated municipality or nearby anchor is Fenwick Island.
Local Delaware water context for Mallard Lakes
Sussex's coastal and inland groundwater systems include Columbia, Columbia-Pocomoke, Pocomoke, Manokin, and related aquifers monitored by DNREC. Coastal properties from Lewes through Fenwick Island may need chloride/salinity attention, while agricultural and shallow-well properties should discuss nitrate/nitrite testing.
If the property is on public water, confirm the PWSID and CCR. If it is on a private well, start with the Delaware DPH bacteria/chemistry kits and add chloride/salinity or nitrate based on the site.
| Question | Useful local starting point |
|---|---|
| Public water | Confirm the exact PWS ID in Delaware Drinking Water Watch or on the current bill. |
| Service territory | Review the official Delaware PSC CPCN water-territory GIS layer as a utility-territory discovery tool; it is not an address-level guarantee. |
| Private well | Review the DNREC well permit/record and water-use/water-level data, then use a certified laboratory or Delaware DPH testing resources. |
| UD/DGS research context | For aquifer, groundwater, and regional research context, review DGS/UD saltwater-intrusion research and the DGS groundwater-quality dataset. These sources are not address-level tap-water results. |
| Data-source guide | Use the Delaware water data-source guide to interpret PWS, CCR, well, territory, and lab records. |
| Before treatment | Match the system to the actual CCR or test result; a municipality is not one water system. |
