DWSD Lead Service Line Removal

· Effective August 1, 2026, as part of all planned and emergency residential and commercial demolition projects, the Construction & Demolition Department (CDD) will notify the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department (DWSD) upon receipt of BSEED Open Hole Approval. This notification will allow DWSD to:

1. Verify the existing water service line material; and

2. Remove any lead service lines, if present.

· DWSD has advised that, once notified that a property is ready for inspection, it will complete the inspection and any required lead service line removal within five (5) business days.

· No changes to the demolition scope of services or contractor responsibilities are required as a result of this process.

· Upon receiving the Open Hole Approval notification from BSEED, CDD will create a demolition issue in Salesforce. This will automatically notify the demolition contractor that the property has been placed on hold while DWSD verifies the water service line material and removes any lead service line, if necessary.

· The demolition issue will pause the project's term of performance and document both the date the property was placed on hold and the date it was released. This process will ensure accurate tracking of contractor performance and compliance with contractual timelines.
