Project Description: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued new requirements under the Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (LCRR) to strengthen protections from the health effects of lead in drinking water. One goal of these new requirements is to replace the remaining lead-containing water pipes across the country that were historically used when older homes were built. North Bay Village is excited to be part of this proactive, nationwide initiative. We are developing an inventory of the water service lines in our distribution system, from the water main in the street to the tap in your home, to determine if any lead-containing materials remain. The initial inventory is expected to be completed this October (2024). Stay tuned for more information about this ongoing effort.
Project Location: Village-wide
