In 2021, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) updated the Lead and Copper Rule (LCR) to better protect communities from lead exposure. Under these new rules, water systems like Roseville’s must review water service lines using a randomized sampling process to identify potential lead materials.
Based on our review of sample water connections, it’s highly unlikely your service line contains lead—especially if your property was built after 1986. Recent testing also shows that lead levels in Roseville’s drinking water remain well below the legal limit.
Help us confirm the material of your service line
We need your help to confirm what material your water service line is made of. This helps us maintain accurate records and continue to protect public health.
- Use the EPA’s simple online guide to learn how to check your service line at home. Additional tools are available from the Lead Service Line Replacement Collaborative.
- Once you’ve identified the pipe material, use our Submit my service line material form to provide your name, address, and a photo of your service line. If no lead is found, no further action is needed.
- If you suspect your service line may contain lead or need assistance, please contact us at:
