Improvement Package SummarX
1 of 3
This improvement package request covers the printing and mailing of the annual EPA-required Public Notice
to customers with service lines identified as Unknown, Lead, or Galvanized Requiring Replacement. Under
the EPA's Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (LCRR) and Lead and Copper Rule Improvements (LCRI),
community and non-transient, non-community water systems must notify affected customers within 30 days
after October 16, 2024, and annually thereafter until all service lines are fully classified and replaced as
needed. This required expense was not previously budgeted and has been covered using other operating
accounts to meet the initial compliance deadlines. Funding this improvement package ensures ongoing
compliance while supporting the City Council's Healthy and Safe Community goal.

This improvement package request includes the addition of a next-generation GPS antenna, and a tablet to
support reliable and accurate mapping of the Water Department's underground infrastructure. The upgraded
GPS equipment will significantly improve the DepartmenYs operational efficiency by allowing field staff to
collect high-accuracy location data more quickly and with greater precision. This enhanced capability
supports better asset management and ensures infrastructure data remains up to date and easily accessible
across departments. By improving the accuracy and accessibility of underground infrastructure information,
this investment directly benefits the community through more efficient service delivery, reduced disruptions
during utility work, and better planning for future system improvements. This project advances the City
Council goal of maintaining a Financially Responsible, High-Performance City Organization: Sustainable
and Effective Service Delivery by increasing the Department's capacity for on-site data collection and
improving overall service reliability and responsiveness.

Lead & Copper Rule (LCRI) Improvements
• EPA-Driven Requirement: The project responds to the USEPA Lead and
Copper Rule Improvements (LCRI), requiring all lead service lines (LSLs) be
replaced within 10 years (by November 1 , 2037).
• Scope of Work: Replace approximately 3,900 remaining LSLs in the City of
� � Dubuque's water system, building on the prior Private Lead Service Line
Replacement Pilot Program.
• Ownership: All service lines from main to meter are privately owned,
� located on both right-of-way and private property.
• Implementation Timeline: Plan development in FY27, multi-year
construction from FY28—FY37, with annual progress tracking and
adjustments as needed.
• Funding & Program Structure: Early years use voluntary participation with
low-interest SRF loans (�67 lines/year); later years transition to mandatory
replacements (�605 lines/year), funded through state loans and property
assessments.
• Total Project Cost: Estimated at $60 million, including planning, design,
construction, program administration, and communication.
