Ninety percent of the customers tested in 2022 had a lead content of the city&#8217;s water of 1.8 parts per billion. The highest test result was 8.4 parts per billion, which is below the 15 parts per billion threshold set by the EPA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To date, the city has received about $544,000 to replace lead pipe lines and has completed 23 projects involving day care facilities and residences where young children and immune system compromised residents live.
