Summary

The bill lets cities adopt rules so water utilities can go onto private property to swap out lead service lines, provided they give owners at least a week’s notice (or act in emergencies). It requires detailed notice about timing, possible water disruptions, and a follow‑up confirmation after the work is done. The goal is to protect public health by removing lead from drinking water.
