No Lead Laws & Regulations Tampa Bay Area Coop Meeting March 27, 2013

Legislation What Are ANSI and NSF? ANSI/NSF 61 ANSI/NSF 372 Reduction of Lead Drinking Water Act John & Tom Discuss Impact from Manufacturing Perspective Q&A Today’s Agenda

Legislation In January of 2011, the President signed into law Senate Bill 3874 and created the Reduction of Lead in Drinking Water Act. This legislation amended the Safe Drinking Water Act to reduce the allowable lead content in all products in contact with drinking water from 8.0% to 0.25% (weighted average).

What is ANSI and NSF? ANSI – American National Standards Institute –Oversees the development of voluntary consensus standards for products in the US –Accredits national standards developing organizations –Only US representative to International Organization for Standardization (ISO) NSF – National Sanitation Foundation –A public health and environmental organization that provides standards development, product certification, auditing, education and risk management services –Developed more than 77 public health and safety standards

NSF/ANSI Standard 61 Drinking Water System Components – Health Effects –Covers all products in contact with drinking water (from source to tap) 1.Restricts intentional use of lead in any product to brass and bronze materials –Annex G – weighted average lead content of 0.25% (15 ppb) Optional (until Jan 2014) 2.Limits the amount of leachable contaminates from all drinking water products –Annex F – Reduces maximum lead leach limit by a factor of 3 (from 15 ppb to 5 ppb) for all NSF Standard 61 certified products Required. Effective Date: July 1, 2012

When does the new law take effect? Nationally: This new law goes into effect on January 4, 2014 Some states have adopted laws with more aggressive timelines for no-lead brass ––California: Already requires no-lead brass ––Vermont: Already requires no-lead brass ––Maryland: No-lead brass required by 1/1/2012 ––Louisiana: No-lead brass required by 1/1/2013 *FLORIDA IS NOT an early adaptor – Follows National Law

NSF – ASDWA Survey ASDWA – Association of State Drinking Water Administrators Drinking water system components fall into two categories of regulation –Municipal and distribution products up through the water meter are typically regulated by state drinking water agencies –Water distribution systems downstream of the water meter or inside a building are typically regulated by state or local plumbing codes 46 states have legislation, regulations or policies requiring or recommending drinking water system components to comply with NSF/ANSI Standard 61

Are any products exempt? The new law applies to the wetted surfaces of any product used in a potable (drinking) water system Products used for non-drinking water applications (reclaimed, industrial, etc.) and brass service saddles are exempt from the no-lead requirements

Welcome John Edwards and Tom Lower with Ford Meter Box

How will this impact current standards? In response to the California no-lead law, NSF Standard 61 Annex G was created in 2008 to provide independent certification to the California law In 2010 NSF Standard 372 was created to permit all products to have independent certification to the new state laws. NSF 372 will supersede Annex G NSF 61 is a voluntary standard currently specified in a number of markets AWWA C800 currently references the Safe Drinking Water Act requirements and will be updated nearer to 2014 to remove leaded brass from the permitted wetted contact material list NFS/ANSI Standard 372 is our primary focus moving forward for users not requiring NSF/ANSI Standard 61

Definitions No-Lead, Low Lead, Lead Free, Federalloy, EnviroBrass Basically, these terms all mean the same thing… –We do anticipate future standards and specifications to clarify some of the industry jargon, as well as the variety of product labeling that exists today. 5 The new Federal Law carries the most weight for the Ford Meter Box Company by specifically defining the allowable lead content (0.25%) of our brass products in 2014.

Made from UNS/CDA No C89833 cast alloy UL Classified to NSF/ANSI Standard 61 and Standard 372 Brass components in contact with potable water shall be of No-Lead Alloy (UNS/CDA No C89833) UNS/CDA No C89833 conforms to AWWA C800 and ASTM B-584 Components that do not come in contact with potable water shall be UNS/CDA No C and shall conform to AWWA Standard C800 (ASTM B-62 and ASTM B-584) Ford No-Lead products are identified by “NL” on the major body component

No-Lead Brass Specifications

Good News Ford Meter Box is Ready! Ford provides (and stocks) a complete no-lead line of brass waterworks products that meet the new legislation Add the “-NL” suffix to your current part numbers

No-Lead Brass Identification Ford No-Lead products are identified by “NL” on the major body component Ford No-Lead products are packaged with a lime-green box label, and have “- NL” at the end of product number

What does this mean for me? All current waterworks brass inventory becomes obsolete and can not be sold (or used) after January 4th, 2014 (unless your state adopts an earlier deadline) Begin planning now to cycle out your current brass inventory and replace with the new no-lead brass products Contact your local Ford Meter Box representative to develop a transition plan
