Dear Neighbor,
Lead Water Line Replacement Project Update
In the last month New London ― Federal, state and local officials gathered in regards to $7 million in federal dollars to help the lead water line replacement project of the dangerous material in pipes buried throughout the City of New London, Connecticut.

 
This was part of President Biden's Bipartisan Infrastructure funding that will help replace around 150 lead service lines while completing ongoing inspection of homes and water lines from the streets.
 
Thank you to: City of New London Utilities Director Joe Lanzafame, Mayor Michael E. Passero – EPA New England Regional Administrator David W. Cash, U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal, U.S. Congressman Joe Courtney, CT DPH Commissioner Manisha Juthani, City Councilors Efrain Dominguez and Akil Peck, Arcadia and Burns Construction for being instrumental in this project happening.
