Which of the following is a cost of water delivery that has received increased attention of late?
  1. Replacement of aging lead delivery pipes
  2. Installation of high-tech water meters
  3. Implementation of new billing systems
  4. None of the above
Explanation
Answer: A - The media attention on high levels of lead in household, school, and park water supplies has moved the need to replace old, corroding lead pipes to the forefront of many water districts’ priority lists. While some may still be installing new water meters or implementing new billing systems, the need to mitigate potential lead poisoning for thousands of people drives the increased delivery cost due to new, lead-free pipe installation.
