Water Service Inventory Program

The water service inventory program is part of the revised Lead and Copper Rule from the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Part of the revised rule requires water systems to inventory water service materials.  The water service line is the pipe from the water main (typically in the street) that connects to the water meter inside the building. As part of the requirements, water customers will be notified if a lead service is found and full results will be available to the public. 


Revised Lead and Copper Rule

According to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA):

EPA’s new Lead and Copper Rule better protects children and communities from the risks of lead exposure by better protecting children at schools and child care facilities, getting the lead out of our nation’s drinking water, and empowering communities through information. Improvements under the new rule include:

  • Using science-based testing protocols to find more sources of lead in drinking water.
  • Establishing a trigger level to jumpstart mitigation earlier and in more communities.
  • Driving more and complete lead service line replacements.
  • For the first time, requiring testing in schools and child care facilities.
  • Requiring water systems to identify and make public the locations of lead service lines
