<div dir="ltr">The method we followed: we contacted DC Water at <a href="http://dcwater.com/waterreport">dcwater.com/waterreport</a> (202-787-2200) to request a lead test kit. We received two bottles from WASA and followed the directions provided. The bottles were picked up for analysis. About a month later, we received notification from WASA that both draws of water contained zero parts per billion of lead level. So we took no further action</div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Sep 4, 2020 at 9:50 AM <<a href="mailto:hfkdc@aol.com">hfkdc@aol.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
<div style="color:black;font:10pt arial">We are also having this done. This project has been going on for some time on Capitol Hill. It is our understanding that several others on the block will also have it done. Because the inside work on our house is already done, DC Water is paying for the outside work and we pay nothing. I am aware that another house close to us is also going to have the project done.

<div dir="ltr">We are doing it and I believe my neighbor is too. While it seems a bit pricey as the city pays up to your front wall it adds some real benefit. First, the size is upped up to one inch. That will allow more devices and flow rate. Second you get a new ball valve shut off inside the house for securing water the water when you need to shut off. Of course you get rid of the lead pipe. <br clear="none">I think this is somewhat of a scam though because the resident is paying for 12 INCHES of pipe and a shut off valve. I am doing it because I want the larger pipe and flush shutoff. <br clear="none">Paul<br clear="none">159 Kentucky <br clear="none"><br clear="none">Sent from my iPhone<br clear="none"><br clear="none">> On Sep 3, 2020, at 15:23, Jonathan Bettin <<a shape="rect" href="mailto:jonathanbettin@aya.yale.edu" target="_blank">jonathanbettin@aya.yale.edu</a>> wrote:<br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> We were approached by someone last week but he said they were with dc<br clear="none">> water not another company (I specifically asked) with the same quote.<br clear="none">> From some research, there is a program in place for the city to<br clear="none">> replace the pipes going in but the actual connection point At your<br clear="none">> house is where it is less clear.<br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> The person who came to our door said we would get a proposal that day<br clear="none">> via email but never did.<br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> Jonathan<br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> Sent from my iPhone<br clear="none">> <br clear="none">>> On Sep 3, 2020, at 6:07 PM, Cathie Woteki <<a shape="rect" href="mailto:cathie@woteki.com" target="_blank">cathie@woteki.com</a>> wrote:<br clear="none">>> <br clear="none">>> We were approached by a representative of United Construction Services about lining the water pipe coming into our house with new copper pipe as well as replacing the shutoff valve for a cost of $1200.
