10 Years, 10 Leaders:
​Honoring Excellence in Lead Service Line Replacement


Ver esta página en español​.

For 10 years, the Lead Service Line Replacement Collaborative has helped communities across the United States accelerate full lead service line (LSL) replacement by building shared tools, enabling cross-sector knowledge exchange and highlighting innovative solutions.

Over that decade, we have seen inspiriting examples of people leading the way. In 2026, the LSLR Collaborative will recognize individuals and programs demonstrating excellence in 10 essential areas of LSL replacement. These categories reflect the principles and practices promoted by the LSLR Collaborative for fair and effective LSL replacement.

Individuals and programs may be nominated for one of the 10 categories listed here.

​Members of the LSLR Collaborative will evaluate nominations against the criteria listed under each category. A program or individual may be nominated for multiple categories. However, separate submittals are encouraged for each category, so that applicants can tailor their application to the selection criteria.


Honorees in each of the 10 categories will be recognized at an event hosted at the American Water Works Association's ACE in Washington D.C. June 2026 and be featured in webinars and other media to share their work.

Nominations accepted until January 30, 2026.
