The EquiFlow Lead-Free Program is committed to ensuring safe, lead-free drinking water for Wausau residents. With an estimated 8,000 lead service lines in the city, our goal is to identify and replace them all by 2028. To achieve this, we verify service line materials, update records, and coordinate full-scale replacements. Through this effort, we are building a safer, healthier future—one home at a time.

EquiFlow Program staff will be contacting residents in these tracts via mail notifications to conduct verifications and coordinate receipt of Right-of-Entry forms. Construction for replacements is expected to begin in late spring 2025 and continue through the fall as weather allows.
