The concerns about lead water pipes were elevated nationally by the problems with lead in the potable water in Flint, Michigan. Lead has been banned in connection with potable water use by Federal law since 1986. In this webinar, we will answer several important questions relating to lead service line replacement, including:

-Why is lead a problem?
-Why is lead service line replacement important?
-How does lead get into drinking water?
-What are the Federal rules and regulations?
