KDHE to hold meetings in western Kansas for public water supply lead and copper rule implementation

The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) will be holding public meetings in western Kansas in September to inform communities and public water supply systems about the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) new Lead and Copper Tule Revision (LCRR). According to the KDHE, under the LCRR, public water supply systems are required to prepare and maintain an inventory of service line materials. The inventory will be submitted to the KDHE by Oct. 16, 2024. The KDHE is inviting public water supply system decision-makers, operators and the public to attend its public meetings to learn more about the inventory requirements and actions that can be taken to reduce lead exposure risks in drinking water.
