Cleveland Water replaces 100% of lead service lines to day care centers; interior work remains


Cleveland Water has inspected water lines at the 445 state-licensed local childcare facilities built before 1953 to check for lead contamination since July 2021. Over half the inspected facilities were found to have lead-contaminated service lines and Cleveland Water replaced every single one of them and also provided educational water safety resources to childcare providers to ensure the water used in the facilities remains safe.
