[QUOTE="Wally, post: 4167908, member: 46212"] Many of those projects were done in the 1950's and early 60's. Lots of lead solder. But the real problem is chlorine. The government worried about trihalomethanes and haloacetic acids, byproducts of disinfecting water, handed down regs to reduce those levels, so treatment plants had to change what they do, the result is change in water pH. The more acidic water is dissolving lead. [/QUOTE]
