April 28 through May 1, representatives from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Get the Lead Out Initiative will visit some neighborhoods in the Lancaster City Water service area to help complete the City’s lead service line inventory.
Visits will take place in neighborhoods near Penn Medicine Park and Lancaster General Hospital, the east side, and Cabbage Hill, including:
- Ross Street to Frederick Street between North Prince Street and North Shippen Street
- North Broad Street to North Ann Street between East Chestnut Street and East End Avenue
- West King Street to West Vine between Old Dorwart/New Dorwart Street and West Strawberry Street
- Poplar Street between Laurel Street and East Filbert Street

Workers will wear high-visibility vests and carry official photo ID. You may ask to see their ID and verify the visit by emailing [email protected].
They will ask for permission to check the material of your water service line. Participation is voluntary. You may refuse entry and instead receive instructions to inspect the line yourself and report the results. This visit is only to identify service line material. There is no cost, no sales, and no citations.
