A 2023 report on US and Canada water main breaks is one of the most thorough and statistically important ever undertaken and compares trends from previous studies in 2012 and 2018.

Nearly 20%, or 452,000 miles, of water pipe are past their useful lives and need to be replaced, but they have not been because of a $452 billion shortfall in funding.

Of a total inventory of 2.3 million miles of pipe, 33% of all water mains are more than 50 years old, representing 770,000 miles at risk.

The United States and Canada experience 260,000 water main breaks annually with $2.6 billion in annual repair costs.

LCRI Compliance Requires Action Now

<p>The January 2024 DC Beat encouraged water systems to begin the planning necessary to comply with the then proposed Lead and Copper Rule Improvements (LCRI) rulemaking, anticipating that the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) would publish the final rule by Oct. 16, 2024. EPA met that schedule, and the rule's deadlines are now a year closer. Now, with a year to study what it will take to comply with the LCRI, the challenges are beginning to take shape.</p><p>Systems can now read the revised regulatory text in the National Archives’ electronic Code of Federal Regulations (eCFR). While still a difficult read, the eCFR allows readers to look at rule revisions in the context of the parts that are unchanged. Systems still trying to understand the LCRI should review the 10 technical fact sheets on key facets of the LCRI, which are available on EPA's website—yes, 10 unique fact sheets that serve as an introduction to the rule requirements. These fact sheets are important in that they explain what EPA intends in the challenging-to-interpret LCRI regulatory text.</p><p>At present, there is no published timeline for substantive LCRI implementation guidance. EPA has indicated that its first two priorities are guidance to assist states in submitting their primacy packages and a small-system guide to the LCRI. Most states chose to wait on the LCRI before submitting a primacy package to EPA. Because LCRI guidance is being developed concurrent with a change in presidential administration, there are likely to be delays that stem from the logistics of the transition, probably slowing the availability of detailed guidance on specific rule elements.</p><p>Under the Safe Drinking Water Act, states have two years to submit complete primacy packages, unless they seek a two-year extension from EPA. Since the Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (LCRR) were promulgated in 2021, states are running out of time for those submissions, which include regulatory and legislative changes states are making to accomplish rule requirements. Until their primacy packages are approved, states are expected to operate under EPA guidance for the LCRR consistent with early implementation agreements. We should expect similar practice with the LCRI.</p><p>As states prepare their primacy applications, they will have to think through the practicalities of LCRI implementation, and water systems need to inform those considerations.

Waves of Change: African American Leaders Transforming the Water Sector

AWWA members and water utility leaders are paving the way for expanded diversity—and a focus on welcoming and belonging—in the water industry as envisioned in AWWA's 2030 Strategic Plan and Water 2050 initiative.

With a growing number of African American water professionals setting the tone for the utilities they lead, their communities benefit from a heightened level of understanding.

Being an African American leader in the water industry has unique challenges, but setting an example for underrepresented professionals and future generations is an integral driver of their work.

The seven people interviewed for this article stressed common leadership principles: building relationships, aligning with customers’ needs; advocating for diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging; removing barriers to professional growth; and inspiring newcomers to the world of water.
