On December 16, 2021, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published the Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (LCRR) in the Federal Register to protect public health. The City of Edgerton is compliant with the original Lead and Copper Rule and will continue to provide high quality drinking water for our residents.

The City of Edgerton completed the inventory and submitted the results to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment on October 16, 2024. The inventory found no lead, galvanized requiring replacement, or unknown materials.

The full inventory is available for public review at City Hall during normal business hours (Monday-Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.). The address is 404 E. Nelson Street, Edgerton, Kansas 66021.

FAQ's

Water service line materials may be determined by a number of factors, including:

The year your home was built
The year your home or property first got water service
The year your home was renovated, or a new home was built on the property

The installation of lead service lines was prohibited in 1986 and became effective in 1988. If your home was built after 1988 with a new water connection, you should not have a lead service line. Copper service lines became popular in the 1960s so many homes built before 1988 do not have lead service lines.

A service line for a home usually enters a home in the basement or crawl space, and is commonly located just prior to the shut off valve.

The publicly owned section of your line connects the main to your home's water meter, typically found in your front yard. The private section of the water service line joins the water meter to your home.

The City is required to inventory the material used on BOTH sides of the water meter.

The City is required to make the service line inventory information publicly accessible. Once the inventory is completed, all water systems will be required to provide a description of how they will continue to update their service line inventory, including replacement of any lead pipes or lead soldering to remove potential lead contamination from the drinking water system. Details about how replacement will be completed is still under review by the EPA.
