With EPA working on final changes to the Lead and Copper Rule Revisions, there will likely be an increase in water utilities relying on predictive tools to develop their lead service line inventories. ASDWA is hosting this webinar to provide the opportunity to learn about state and utility experience with predictive tools and algorithms for lead service line inventories. Presentations include:
  1. Eric Oswald, Michigan EGLE: Michigan’s Experience with LSL Inventories and Predictive Tools
  2. Quirien Muylwyk, AECOM: Denver Water’s LSL Inventory Predictive Model and LSLR Prioritization
  3. Erica Walker, 120Water: Lead Service Line Probability Finder and Predictive Intelligence Module
The webinar is scheduled for April 10, 2020 from 1:00 to 2:30 PM EDT. The webinar is free and open to non-members. Please register for the event here:

Lead-line replacement project moves forward

3/6/2020

See the original article. 

​By Luke Nathan, Bennington BannerBENNINGTON — An effort to replace lead service lines that link town water mains to private buildings will move forward after voters this week authorized a $9.5 million bond for the project.

The measure passed on Tuesday by a vote of 2,898 to 635. No other, individual article on the ballot garnered as many "yes" votes.

"We're moving forward," Town Manager Stu Hurd said on Thursday. The project is eligible for full reimbursement through the state and federally supported Drinking Water State Revolving Fund, which in the past had supported only projects related to municipally owned facilities.

Hurd said he hopes the state will award the town about $2 to $3 million for a first phase of construction. Other localities are also in the process of exploring similar projects, he said, but Bennington is "much further along."

Through an earlier, grant-supported mapping and planning process, MSK Engineering and Design, the consulting firm leading the project, identified 1,664 service lines made of either lead or unknown material. There are more than 3,800 service lines throughout Bennington.
​
After attempting to contact the owners of those 1,664 lines, the consultancy managed to visually assess service lines connected to 726 properties — and confirmed the existence of 136 lead service lines, according to a presentation by Jason Dolmetsch, president of MSK, at the Select Board's Jan. 27 meeting.
