EPA v. LAKESIDE VILLAGE MHP

Case summary

AUGUST 20, 2026 - ADMINISTRATIVE COMPLIANCE ORDER On January 15, 2021, EPA promulgated the Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (LCRR). The LCRR included a requirement for water systems to complete initial inventories of lead service lines by October 16, 2024. On October 8, 2024, the EPA finalized the Lead and Copper Rule Improvements (LCRI), which built upon the pre-2021 LCR and 2021 LCRR. Relevant to this Order, the LCRI maintained the LCRR compliance date of October 16, 2024, for initial lead service line inventory, notification of service line material, and associated reporting requirements (discussed in further detail below). Until a State, Tribe, or Territory has primary enforcement authority for a new or revised National Primary Drinking Water Regulation (?NPDWR?), such as the LCRR and LCRI. Although the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) administers the Public Water Supply Supervision Program in Florida, the State of Florida has not been granted primacy by the EPA for implementation and enforcement of the LCRI and/or LCRR as of the date of this Order. Therefore, the EPA currently has primary enforcement responsibility for the SDWA LCRR and LCRI. A water system must develop a service line inventory that identifies the materials of all service lines connected to the public water distribution system. PWSs were required to develop and submit to the State1 an initial service line inventory by October 16, 2024,(reporting requirements). The System failed to develop and submit its required initial service line inventory to the State by the October 16, 2024, deadline. Failure to develop an initial inventory by October 16, 2024, requires Tier 2 Public Notification. The System failed to provide Tier 2 Public Notification to the persons it serves. Failure to submit an initial inventory to the State by October 16, 2024. Within 30 days of completing its initial service line inventory, a water system must inform all persons served at the service connection of lead, galvanized requiring replacement, or lead status unknown service lines. The System has failed to inform all persons served at the service connection that the service line is known to, or has the potential of, containing lead, or such notification has failed to meet the timing, content, or delivery requirements. A water system must make the service line inventory publicly available. The System failed to make the service line materials inventory publicly available, or available online. Failure to make the service line materials inventory publicly available requires Tier 2 Public Notification. The System failed to provide Tier 2 Public Notification to the persons it serves. Beginning October 16, 2024, a water system shall deliver public education materials to persons served by the water system at the service connection with a lead, galvanized requiring replacement, or lead status unknown service line. The System failed to deliver the required public education materials to persons served by the water system at the service connection with a lead, galvanized requiring replacement, or lead status unknown service line. Based on the findings above, the EPA alleges that the System violated the SDWA, including violations of the NPDWRs.
