"What is CA AB 1953 and VT S.152 and how is this different
from previous low-lead legislation?"
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates the
amount of lead in drinking water under guidelines established in the Federal Safe Drinking
Water Act (passed in 1974; amended in 1988 and 1996). This Act defines "lead-free" as not
more than 8% lead in pipes and fixture fittings. PLEASE NOTE: Use of the term "lead-free"
varies between the new legislation in CA (AB 1953) and VT (S.152), and in the current
Federal Safe Drinking Water Act requirements. In the new legislation for CA and VT only,
starting in 2010, it will mean 0.25% or less (weighted average).
