PA American Water lead line replacement
Summary
PA American Water will replace lead service lines at 575 Dormont homes for free — but only for owners who sign the agreement. If the company can't reach you after three attempts, it can suspend your service until it returns. Three of four census tracts (4721, 4722, 4723) are affected, mostly the western/northwestern side of the borough, and the work will reshape next year's road program.

Impact analysis
Free to participating property owners, but the borough is eyeing an addendum fund for sidewalk overages and may need to shuffle its 2027 road program around the utility work.
The 575 homeowners in the affected tracts get lead lines replaced at no cost.
Residents who ignore the outreach risk having water service suspended until crews can return, and the whole borough faces construction disruption through spring 2028.
