The 2021 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (LCRR) require that water utilities prepare an inventory of all water service line materials, for both customer- and utility-owned service lines.
City of Norfolk is proactively completing the service line materials inventory to better protect customers by expediting the removal of lead service lines from the drinking water system. The City is employing a range of methods to investigate and verify service line materials, including historical record review, field visits, test pits, statistical analysis, and customer self-reporting.
