Its purpose is to reduce lead and copper at the tap in drinking water provided by regulated public water systems. On December 22, 2020, <strong>the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) finalized the first major update to the Lead and Copper Rule<\/strong> since it was initially enacted in 1991.<\/p>\n<p>Updates to the rule include the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Using science-based testing protocols to find more sources of lead in drinking water<\/li>\n<li>Establishing a trigger level to jump-start mitigation earlier and in more communities<\/li>\n<li>Driving more and complete lead service line replacements<\/li>\n<li>For the first time, requiring testing in schools and childcare facilities<\/li>\n<li>Requiring water systems to identify and make public the locations of lead service lines<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>According to the <em>Journal AWWA<\/em> article &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/awwa.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/epdf\/10.5942\/jawwa.2016.108.0086\">National Survey of Lead Service Line Occurrence<\/a>,&#8221; there are 6.1 million full or partial lead service lines present in US community water systems. The cost of replacing a lead service line is estimated to range from US$2,500 to US$8,000 per line. Identifying and replacing lead service lines is a lot of work as well as a significant expense. Working to collect the location of lead service lines, visualizing and analyzing the data, and creating easy-to-use resources for the public will be challenging for many utilities.<\/p>\n<p>Not all utilities can quickly or easily identify where lead service lines are located. This information is often lost within historical paper records that are difficult to access and time-consuming to review. Identifying lead service lines is done primarily with physical inspections of the pipe. If digital data is available, analytics can be used to prioritize inspections, sending inspection staff to areas that are likely to have lead pipes. Whatever method is used, identifying the lead service lines and visualizing them on a map will improve workflow efficiency. It will also enable easy sharing of the information with stakeholders and the public.<\/p>\n<p>Collecting lead service line information, showing it on a map, and sharing it with the public are tasks that Esri&#8217;s ArcGIS system can help with. Water utilities across the United States are using ArcGIS to help them prepare to meet the new requirements within the Lead and Copper Rule, each in their own way.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":1126732,"id":1126732,"title":"Denver Viewer_sm","filename":"Denver-Viewer_sm.png","filesize":267262,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Denver-Viewer_sm.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis\/water\/the-lead-and-copper-rule-arcgis-helps-to-meet-updated-requirements\/denver-viewer_sm","alt":"Denver Water Lead Viewer","author":"3621","description":"Denver Water Lead Viewer","caption":"","name":"denver-viewer_sm","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1126292,"date":"2021-01-28 18:33:01","modified":"2021-01-28 18:33:26","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/png","type":"image","subtype":"png","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1218,"height":657,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Denver-Viewer_sm-213x200.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Denver-Viewer_sm.png","medium-width":464,"medium-height":250,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Denver-Viewer_sm.png","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":414,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Denver-Viewer_sm.png","large-width":1218,"large-height":657,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Denver-Viewer_sm.png","1536x1536-width":1218,"1536x1536-height":657,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Denver-Viewer_sm.png","2048x2048-width":1218,"2048x2048-height":657,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Denver-Viewer_sm-826x446.png","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":446,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Denver-Viewer_sm.png","wide_image-width":1218,"wide_image-height":657}},"image_position":"right","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/en-us\/landing-page\/industry\/water\/2020\/denver-water-protects-customers-with-data-driven-lead-reduction-program"},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"<p style=\"text-align: left\">In 2020, <strong>Denver Water<\/strong> launched its unprecedented\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/WsD327Ow_Hs\">Lead Reduction Program<\/a>.
