Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (LCRR)
On January 15th, 2021, the EPA published the National Primary Drinking Water Regulations: Lead and Copper Rule Revisions. These revisions will require changes to Lead and Copper sampling as well as a service line inventory for all systems subject to the Lead and Copper Rule. The regulation will go into effect, and initial inventories are due October 16th, 2024. More information can be found on EPA’s website (https://www.epa.gov/ground-water-and-drinking-water/revised-lead-and-copper-rule). Per EPA, the implementation of LCRR will be followed by the release of the Lead and Copper Rule Improvements (LCRI).
