Lead and Copper Service Line Study
Revised Lead and Copper Rule - Identification of Pipe Material
In accordance with the new Federal regulations and guidelines released on August 4, 2022, Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD) conducted a lead and copper service line study throughout its service area. Staff conducted the material survey at the service meter throughout 2024.
Previous studies have indicated that EMWD customers are not at risk; however, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and the State Water Resources Control Board’s Division of Drinking Water require that lead pipelines on the customer side of the water meter, built prior to 1986, be identified.
EMWD water service lines are not made of lead, however, if your residence/service address was built prior to 1986, it was included in the pipe material survey.
NOTE: At the conclusion of this study, EMWD determined through historical records, information provided directly by customers, and information acquired during physical field inspections that the water system contains no lead service lines or galvanized service lines requiring replacement in its distribution system.
