BlueConduit is proud to support North Carolina water systems as they navigate the NCDEQ’s robust statistical methods and predictive modeling guidance to ensure, with the highest possible confidence, compliance with NCDEQ’s guidance and the most efficient identification and removal of lead service lines for all North Carolina communities.
-
Did you know that the primary value of statistical methods & predictive modeling comes after the initial inventory is created? This is especially true if you believe you have no lead in your system (or have minimal lead) but don’t have records to verify every service line’s material.
-
BlueConduit recently submitted comments to the EPA on the proposed Lead and Copper Rule Improvements (LCRI). We are committed to achieving a lead-free drinking water system through evidence-based decision making and applaud the EPA for establishing a timeline for the replacement of all lead service lines in the United States.

Detroit, like many other cities across the U.S., has grappled with a silent threat lurking within its aging water infrastructure: lead service lines. Learn why The Detroit Water and Sewage Department partnered with BlueConduit to help make the lead service line inventory and removal process more efficient than ever before.
-
We talk a lot about ‘compliance’ but the reality is that compliance is complicated and changes over time. This series breaks down compliance requirements across the LCR and the proposed LCRI to help you understand the who, what, and when of compliance.
-
It's time for water systems to start preparing for compliance. Here are some highlights of the proposed changes and how they affect water utilities.
-
Read how machine learning and artificial intelligence allow us to get much more out of the data we collect, finding subtle patterns, capturing complex nuances, and using these to build predictive models.
-
It’s easy to find evidence for a risk of lead exposure from water service lines. How do we show that there isn’t a meaningful risk of lead in our water system?
-
Properly deployed, predictive machine learning can bridge gaps, accelerating the work of modernizing our water systems in an explainable manner that makes the best use of our scarce resources.
-
Understand why it's so important that water systems can recognize and address sources of bias in their lead service line inventory process.
