Disadvantaged Communities. Lead Service Line Replacement (LSLR) Projects Federal IIJA funds provide a new source of funding to address lead service lines, with 49% of the funds available as Principal Forgiveness for disadvantaged communities. Recipients of LSLR funds must replace the entire lead service line, not just a portion, unless a portion has already been replaced or is concurrently being replaced with another funding source. In 2023, a new state Lead Service Line Replacement Grant program was established and $240 million appropriated for lead service line replacement work (Chapter 39 - MN Laws). The state program structure will maximize and work in conjunction with the federal IIJA LSLR funds. Up to 10% of the appropriation ($24 million) may be used for lead service line mapping and inventory costs. PFA has carefully reviewed how its disadvantaged community definition will apply to lead service line projects. A significant portion of a drinking water service line is owned by the property owner and municipalities cannot use system revenues to pay the cost to replace the privately owned portion. Generally, special assessments to each individual property owner have been the only way to pay the private portion of the lead service line replacement cost, resulting in the cost impact falling on each property owner rather than over a municipality’s entire user base. This can result in significant costs to each property owner that may often be an affordability barrier to replacing the lead service line. PFA has determined it is appropriate to focus on the financial impact to the property owner rather than the municipality as a whole. For IIJA-funded lead service line replacement projects, PFA will determine what the estimated annual cost would be for each property if the replacement of the private portion were financed through a special assessment on the property over ten years. PFA will then add the average cost per household for water service (reflecting the operation and maintenance and debt service costs of the system) and compare the total to the municipality’s median household income. If the result exceeds the established 1.2% threshold, the municipality will be considered a disadvantaged community and the lead service line replacement project will be eligible for federal principal forgiveness. When a city applies for a LSLR project, the PFA will review the applicant’s current water rates and estimated cost to replace the private portion of the lead service line and calculate t...
