EPA Finalizes Rule: Biden Pledges $2.6 Billion to Replace All Lead Pipes in 10 Years
Oct 8, 2024, 12:27 PM
President Joe Biden announced a plan to replace all lead pipes in the United States within the next 10 years, pledging an additional $2.6 billion in funds to support the effort. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) finalized a rule requiring water utilities to replace all lead-contaminated water pipes within a decade, addressing a 'moral imperative' to act on this public health threat that affects tens of thousands of American children each year. This initiative comes a decade after the Flint, Michigan water crisis highlighted the dangers of lead in tap water. EPA Administrator Michael Regan emphasized that there is no safe level of lead exposure and that no one should have to worry about the water coming from their sink.
