Lead and Copper Stakeholders Take Note

The EPA is considering changes to its current standards for lead and copper in drinking water. A Thursday, Oct. 14, 2020 Federal Register notice announced that the EPA has convened a regulatory workgroup to evaluate potential long-term revisions to the agency's regulations for the control of lead and copper in drinking water.

The EPA noted it is holding a stakeholder meeting to provide information to the public and an opportunity for the public to provide input on potential revisions to the LCR under consideration by the agency.

Discussion topics may include but are not limited to lead service line replacement, actions that could be taken at schools, and monitoring procedures and sample site selection.

A public meeting will be held on Thursday, Nov. 4, 2010
