Water Service Line Inventory

LSLI_MeterBox_600x400

Project Overview

The City of Shasta Lake is committed to providing our customers with a safe and reliable supply of high quality drinking water. To minimize the presence of lead in the water system, the US EPA is requiring public water purveyors to complete a Lead Service Line Inventory (LSLI). The objective of the LSLI is to determine if there are any lead pipes in the water distribution system on both the public and customer (private) portions. This inventory must be completed and submitted by October 16, 2024.

To determine the material of the water service line, Public Works crew members may perform the following: 

  • Record pipe material at the water meter box as well as the nearest spigot or hose bib.
  • Use hand tools to excavate the area in and around the water meter box.
  • Operate excavator trucks to clear out large debris from the meter box. 
  • Perform scratch tests on the pipe to determine the pipe material.
  • Document pipe material with photos.

If you have questions, please call Public Works at (530) 275-7400 during regular business hours: Monday - Friday, 7AM - 4PM.
