(February 11, 2008)—The City of Killeen issued a warning late Monday afternoon about an out-of-town company that’s claiming to be testing water on behalf of the city.
“The City of Killeen is not performing water testing and has not contracted any vendor for water testing,” the city said in a press release.
Residents report having been approached by a company representative who claims to need to test their water for contamination, the city said.
The vendors show a badge, perform a test that finds water contamination and then recommend installation of a $5,000 purification system, the city said.
The vendors seem to be targeting newly constructed homes, the city said.
Anyone who is approached by the company representatives is asked to call Killeen’s Public Works Department at (254) 501-7620.
