Service Line Inventory Complete
Our service line inventory is complete and we found no lead service lines or galvanized service lines requiring replacement.
Maine Water has completed an important initiative to comply with the Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (LCRR). A nationwide mandate by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the LCRR aimed to collect water service line material information to identify any outdated pipes connected to our water system that may require replacement.
We are proud to share that no lead service lines or galvanized service lines requiring replacement were found, and we have no service lines where the construction material of the line is unknown.
Maine Water provided the Maine Drinking Water Program (MDWP) with a request for approval of our initial service line inventory, which identified no lead, galvanized requiring replacement (GRR) or unknown service lines. Below outlines the divisions completed with corresponding timing of notifying the MDWP.
