Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (LCRR) Guide Book

The recent revisions to the U.S. EPA's Lead and Copper Rule (LCRR) mandate that utilities must compile a detailed inventory of service line materials by October 16, 2024. This requirement presents significant information and operational hurdles for water suppliers. Moreover, the LCRR marks a pivotal move in a broader federal initiative aimed at eliminating all lead service lines. This initiative is set to expand through the proposed Lead and Copper Rule Improvements (LCRI), which the agency plans to enact by the LCRR deadline. As the regulatory landscape advances to protect the public, particularly children, from the hazards of lead exposure—a danger universally recognized by the World Health Organization, EPA, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)—utilities must adapt to meet these evolving standards, regardless of their size or available resources.

In response, there exists both knowledgeable experts and cutting-edge technologies, many of which are detailed in this e-book, to assist utilities in navigating the path toward compliance including:

• The LCRR Inventory and upcoming programs
• Build trust and effective communication with your residents
• Evaluating predictive models for LSL Inventory and Replacement
