Summary
As introduced Bill 25-195 would require lead service lines on both public and private property be replaced with non-lead lines by December 31, 2030, at no cost to the property owner. It would require that owners of private property serviced by a leas service line to enroll in the Lead Service Line Replacement Program or replace the lead service line themselves. Among other things it prescribes acceptable methods of testing service lines for lead and establishes public education requirements. It would also require DC Water to provide water filtration devices to all properties serviced by a service line made of lead until at least 6 months after the property’s lead service line is replaced. It prescribes certain rights and protections for occupants residing at a property serviced by a lead service line. It would also require that the Department of Energy and Environment engage community-based organizations to review contractor lead service line replacements.
