Another Big Award. Our Second Year in a Row from BUILTWORLDS making the INFRASTRUCTURE TOP 50 List.

With almost two years until the EPA’s Deadline to Inventory your Lead Pipes, Electro Scan Inc. is pleased to announce its upcoming 20-City Roadshow featuring #SWORDFISH. The water industry’s first machine-intelligent tool that locates buried lead pipes without digging or excavating.

With nearly 50,000 Community Water Systems (CWS) required to submit accurate inventories of their lead pipes (or confirm they have no lead pipe), #swordfish is the answer.

An estimated 5,000 to 10,000 #swordfish are expected to be sold in the next eighteen (18) months, that can also be used for leak detection in 1/2-1 inch diameter pipes.

With manufacturing in full gear, order your #SWORDFISH today!

With larger agencies already taking multiple years to grapple with identifying their lead pipes, with millions of pipes still unidentified or unknown, let Electro Scan Inc.and #SWORDFISH help ramp up your water utility field staff or work through one of our geographically exclusive Authorized Swordfish Service Providers.

“While data modeling techniques for identifying probabilities of Lead Service Lines (LSLs) exist and have been useful in some cities, these techniques only identify probabilities of LSLs that can be used to prioritize work; they do not generate a verified service line inventory.”

Enjoy!

I’m delighted to see Electro Scan Inc.‘s award-winning #SWORDFISH added to the Environmental Policy Innovation Center‘s (EPIC) recently published ‘Menu of Options: Data and Technology To Replace Lead Pipes Faster.’

Thank you Maureen Cunningham, Jessica Mahr, Gabriella Mabayyed (Gabby), and Marie Cailo for all your hard work at EPIC.

With more States no longer accepting Visual Inspection to inventory Lead Pipes, #SWORDFISH is a water utility’s only way to confirm non-lead and lead buried pipes, without digging up a customer’s yard.

#SWORDFISH
– EPA Referenced ‘Electrical Resistance Testing’
– Pressurized or Un-Pressurized Lines
– Basement Entry or Curb Side Entry
– All Pipe Materials
– Cloud-based Field Reporting (In Minutes)
– Patented and Patent-Pending

This is the industry’s only solution to assess buried lead pipe without digging!

The Deadline to Inventory Service Lines of October 16, 2024 for the nearly 50,000 Community Water Systems (CWS) is coming fast. And, most original estimates for #lead pipes are growing exponentially.

A California water utility called this week that has plastic pipe for nearly 90% of their water main network. They asked if they found any #lead pipe on the customer’s side if they had to inventory & replace it?

WOW!

YES. That is what the 2021 Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (P.L. 117-58) will finance and contains a historic $15 billion in funding for Lead Service Line (LSL) identification and replacement.  Available through the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF).

DON’T WAIT.

Electro Scan Inc. looks forward to joining Michael Simpson, CEO M.E. Simpson Co., Inc., to share how utilities are adopting ‘ELECTRICAL RESISTANCE TESTING’ for lead detection, as referenced in the EPA’s Guidance for Developing and Maintaining a Service Line Inventory, published 2022 (EPA 816-8-22-001.
