B 26-0111 Legislature · 26th Council Period (2025-2026)

Accelerating a Lead-Free DC Amendment Act of 2025

This bill requires all lead service lines (pipes carrying water) in Washington, D.C. to be removed from public property, District government buildings, and private properties by January 1, 2030. DC Water must create and maintain a detailed inventory of all water service lines, achieving 99% accuracy in identifying lead pipes by 2030. Property owners can receive tax credits until 2026 to voluntarily replace lead lines on their private property. The bill also establishes job training programs at the DC Infrastructure Academy to prepare District residents for lead pipe removal work, directly supporting the 2030 cleanup goal.
