by the water system, with filters for the removal of lead, or
an alternative water supply.
3. Strengthen the notification requirements to include specific
notices to customers found to have high lead levels,whether
the system is in compliance, or not. Also change the health
information to include wording such as: "lead causes irre-
versible slowing of mental development, is highly toxic, and
a probably human carcinogen.'
4. Reexamine the flushing requirements to consider the need
for longer times. The District now recommends 10 minutes
before sampling.

5. Systems making treatment changes need to notify the state
at least 60 days before changes are made. The state must
review any changes for impacts to the corrosion control plan
for the system. Increased monitoring for by- products would
be needed after the change to verify no adverse impacts.
6. Presently, where the system does not own the entire lead
service line, it is only required to replace the portion under
its control. EPA is to revisit this procedure and find ways to
provide incentives for full lead service line replacement.
7. Increase the number and frequency of samples from houses,
to cover a larger portion of the population. Sample new
housing construction as well as those already mandated.
8. Require states to report treatment methods, corrosion con-
trol plans, and those jurisdictions with extensive lead service
lines, to EPA.
EPA is also asked to provide Congress with a projected time-
table for reexamining the rule, and for proposing and finalizing
any changes.
Yes,the fun is just about to start again. And,this time it is not
just EPA, but Congress helping to write the rules.
