The City of Upland is dedicated to protecting its community water system from harmful contaminants and collaborates with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to ensure water safety. As part of this commitment, we are following EPA regulations that require public water systems to develop a comprehensive inventory of lead service lines.

This inventory provides a detailed understanding of the water service connections in our area and helps ensure compliance with water quality standards set by the California and U.S. Environmental Protection Agencies.
