The **[Lead Service Line Replacement Cost Calculator](https://ephillc.com/lead-service-line-replacements/)™ (LSLRCC)** was developed to support the nationwide effort to replace 9.2 million lead service lines across the U.S., a critical public health initiative with costs potentially exceeding $100 billion. This free tool provides municipalities, utilities, and government agencies with precise, data-driven cost modeling to help optimize replacement strategies. By improving planning efficiency and reducing exposure to lead in drinking water, LSLRCC aims to save billions of dollars and improve public health outcomes nationwide. Partners and sponsors can support this impactful effort by connecting through our [media and sponsorship kit](https://ephillc.com/public-health-sponsorship-opportunities/). [Environmental & Public Health International](https://ephillc.com/) (EPHI) focuses on drinking water training and education. Our [Flint Water Crisis training](https://ephillc.com/flint-drinking-water-training/) supports efforts to improve drinking water quality and protect public health across federal, state, and local agencies. We developed the Lead Service Line Replacement Cost Calculator™ (LSLRCC) to help municipalities and agencies better plan and manage the large, costly task of replacing millions of lead service lines nationwide—improving public health, and potentially saving billions of dollars in drinking water infrastructure costs.
