Upcoming Drinking Water Webinars

Wednesday, June 29, 2022 1:00-2:30pm ET: DWSRF and Capacity Building in Action - Addressing Lead in Drinking Water

Lead poses serious health risks to both children and adults, but children are especially vulnerable. Low-income and other historically underserved communities may experience high levels of lead in their drinking water because they are disproportionately served by lead services lines. During this webinar, EPA will present how States could use their DWSRF set-asides for activities that support lead service line replacements, lead testing and education, and more.
