Utility board approves $1,253 payment to 120Water for lead-and-copper compliance services; staff to report on auto‑renewal and school sampling
Summary
The Lawrenceburg Utility Board approved payment of $1,253 to a vendor identified as 120Water for lead-and-copper rule compliance work. Utility staff said the city has no known lead service lines and will seek details on a proposed $12,000 annual renewal and new school/daycare sampling requirements.
The Lawrenceburg Utility Board on May 18 approved payment of $1,253 to a vendor identified in meeting materials as 120Water for services related to compliance with the EPA's lead-and-copper rule. Garrett Kavanaugh told the board the payment covers pro‑platform services the city used to compile and upload inventory information to meet Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) requirements.
Kavanaugh said Lawrenceburg has no lead service lines and that the city replaced meter setters in the late 1990s and early 2000s. He described earlier grant funding that covered initial work and said the vendor later proposed an annual renewal for additional services, listing a cited figure of about $12,000 for the annual renewal. Kavanaugh said he will seek clarification on the renewal and on new 2026 obligations for school and daycare sampling, and bring full details back to the board next month.
The board voted by voice to pay $1,253 for the services; board members asked that future renewals and any sample-collection proposals be presented to the board before the city commits to multiyear payments. Kavanaugh said the city retains access to its inventory data but is still evaluating whether to pay for ongoing vendor services or perform sample collection and reporting in-house.
