City of Pomeroy Releases Lead Service Line Inventory,
Enhancing Transparency and Public Health Protection

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

Pomeroy, Washington – 12/15/2025 – The City of Pomeroy has completed its lead service line inventory (LSLI) in compliance with the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Lead and Copper Rule.  This rule requires public water systems to conduct inventories of service lines and service line material types in an effort to eliminate the presence of lead in drinking water systems.  Service lines are the pipes that connect homes or buildings to the main water line under the street.
