Description:
Lead service line (LSL) replacement is not a simple task. The LSL Replacement Collaborative has developed an online toolkit to help communities across the United States develop and implement replacement programs and is hosting a series of webinars to address specific topics related to this work.

Communities across the country are making LSL replacement a priority, providing opportunities to both create new jobs and deploy existing workforces in new ways. This webinar will explore the critical role of building a robust workforce for LSL replacement in an equitable manner, including considerations such as hiring locally and ensuring safe work practices.
