Memphis Leads in Lead Pipe Replacements

Memphis is leading Tennessee in tackling lead pipes, replacing 1,500 public lines yearly since 2012—and now turning its focus to the private side, from meter to house. Already over 200 private lines replaced, with another 200 inspected, and 2,600 homeowner permissions secured. While federal rules limit work to the meter-to-doorline, Memphis is pushing further than most utilities, all while coordinating with EPA and state guidelines. Meanwhile, MLGW shifts energy strategy from solar to battery storage, backed by a huge federal loan to strengthen grid reliability.
