Description
Lead service line (LSL) replacement is not a simple task. The LSL Replacement Collaborative has developed an online toolkit to help communities across the United States develop and implement replacement programs and is hosting a series of webinars to address specific topics related to this work.
EPA has released the most significant overhaul of the Lead and Copper Rule in two decades. The agency’s stated intent for these revisions was to require more water systems to act sooner to reduce lead levels and protect public health, improve transparency and communication, and better protect children and the most at-risk communities.
In this webinar we will explore how the rule’s revisions will affect water systems’ lead service line inventory activities, replacement programs, and stakeholder communications from a range of perspectives. The panel will also discuss the public health and health equity implications of the final rule. The Lead Service Line Replacement Collaborative is not an advocacy organization.
