AGENDA ITEM B.1
COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
AGENDA TITLE:
Receive Presentation on Federal Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (PW)
MEETING DATE:
September 17, 2024
PREPARED BY:
Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Receive presentation on Federal Lead and Copper Rule Revisions.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The City of Lodi Public Works Department is responsible for assuring the City’s drinking water meets or
exceeds all State and Federal drinking water standards. As reflected in the 2023 Annual Water Quality Report,
issued April 2024, Lodi’s drinking water is safe and met and continues to meet or exceed all State and Federal
requirements.
In 1991, the US EPA established the Lead and Copper Rule. In January of 2021, the US EPA issued revisions
to the federal Lead and Copper Rule (LCRR) with a goal to better protect communities and children in
elementary schools and childcare facilities from the impacts of lead exposure. The revised LCRR requires
community water systems throughout the United States (approximately 4,000 water systems in California) to
conduct an inventory of service lines and determine the material of those lines and fittings. The City of Lodi
has over 20,000 water service lines that meet the inventory criteria.
In November of 2023, US EPA issued a revised timeline that requires the inventory to be completed by
October 16, 2024. In September of 2023, the City engaged Woodward and Curran to develop and submit the
initial inventory to the State of California Division of Drinking Water by the October 16, 2024 deadline. In
accordance with the timeline, within 30 days of October 16th, the City is required to provide notification to
property owners if their service is constructed of lead fittings, galvanized fittings, or if the material is unknown.
It is important to emphasize this effort is part of a larger US EPA program to inventory lead services in the
United States and that the concentration of lead in the City’s water system remains below all State and
Federal regulatory action levels.
During the special meeting, Staff will provide a presentation to Council that outlines the requirements
associated with the revised federal Lead and Copper Rule, a status of the current inventory, and the plan
moving forward to follow through with the notification requirements.
STRATEGIC VISION:
8. Public Well-Being.
