Implementing a Lead Solder Ban
One of the most significant aspects of the 1986 Safe Drinking Water Act amendments is the ban on the use of lead solder and lead pipes, which is similar to a ban enacted by the state of Oregon in 1984. Implementing such a ban requires a close coordination among the water utility, plumbing inspectors, plumbing code authorities, and health officials. Education and enforcement programs are essential to ensure that the ban is effective. Understanding the experiences in establishing the ban in Oregon and enforcing it in Portland may be useful as the lead ban is extended nationwide.
