What to Know about Replacing Lead Service Lines
California is replacing water lines that contain lead over the next several years, which can create lead hazards in drinking water. Here's how to protect your family:

Use the running water for plants instead.	Start with cold tap water and heat with stove or microwave.	Click to view this the infographic with more details
