Public Service Announcement
There has been a set mandate from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regarding the Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (LCRR) to better protect children and communities from the risks of lead exposure through water lines. The Lead Elimination Assistance Program “LEAP” campaign was recently launched by the Virginia Department of Health Office of Drinking Water to promote and educate both localities and homeowners about the dangers of lead service lines.
Under Executive Order 13990, it is required that all localities within the United States report the type of water lines in use by the service line (Town line) and the customer’s line.
The Town of Tazewell must compile a Lead Service Line Inventory (LSL Inventory). The inventory must include the Town’s portion of the water service line (before and including the water meter) and the customer’s portion of the service line (after the water meter into the home or business). Lead service lines were primarily installed during the late 1800s through the 1940s with a federal lead ban effective June 19, 1986.
All municipalities in the United States are required to complete the Lead Service Line inventory. The Town of Tazewell will be conducting a customer survey in order to gain information on the type of service lines going into their homes. Please watch for this survey in your next water bill. If you will, fill out this brief survey and return to the Town of Tazewell by September 15, 2023. We would greatly appreciate your assistance in achieving compliance by completing the survey. Thank you for your cooperation.
