Lead Service Line Replacement Program

Official utility action

Use the utility record to confirm whether the notice represents a known line, a modeled risk, or a still-unverified material category.

Estimated replacement scope Full replacement is no direct charge in city-triggered cases while owner-managed early replacement still requires private-side contractor cost

Owners avoid private-side cost only when a qualifying city trigger applies and otherwise pay the private segment first if they initiate replacement before the city has a trigger to replace its side.

Replacement decision logic

Do not let a notice flatten the ownership boundary.

Do not overread this notice. The utility's exact category definitions, lookup record, and replacement path still control the real decision.

Action step

Check the exact notice language against the official utility page.

Action step

Do not treat a potential line notice as proof of parcel-level certainty unless the source says so.

Action step

If replacement is not immediate, use the interim protection route next.

Do not overread this notice

Known, potential, and unknown mean whatever this utility says they mean. Do not import another utility's definitions.

Do not overread this notice

A notice is not parcel certainty unless the utility lookup or map confirms the specific address.

Do not overread this notice

Filter and testing are interim steps, not equal substitutes for replacement when a local replacement path exists.
