Deadlines for compliance with the revised Lead and Copper Rule begin in January 2024, giving water utilities just under three years to complete several significant tasks related to service line inventories, service line replacement plans, communication plans, and other rules. The US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) has offered the possibility of an eight‐month delay, but systems should still start now.
