Important Information
EPA REVISED LEAD & COPPER RULE -
What is the Lead and Copper Rule?
In 1991, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published a regulation to control lead and copper in drinking water. This regulation is known as the Lead and Copper Rule (also referred to as the LCR). Since 1991 the LCR has undergone various revisions. The latest Lead and Copper Rule Revision requirement tasks each Waterworks to prepare and maintain an inventory of service line materials by October 16, 2024.
Russell County PSA monitors lead and copper throughout its system by collecting water samples and having them analyzed, with the results reported to the Virginia Department of Health's Office of Drinking Water as well as the customers that participate in the sampling.
HOW YOU CAN HELP!
Waterworks across the country have been tasked to create an inventory of service line materials for every customer, which is a large and daunting task. In an attempt to cut costs and keep them from being passed on to customers, many Waterworks are asking customers to fill out a simple form (under Forms & Reports Tab) that will make the inventory creation faster, less costly, and more efficient.
Note to Customers Concerning the Mail
Date: November 19, 2025
To Our Valued Customers,
The Russell County Public Service Authority would like to address ongoing issues regarding the delivery of monthly bills through the U.S. Postal Service. We mail all customer bills at least three weeks prior to the due date to ensure ample time for delivery and payment.
Unfortunately, over the past several months, we have experienced numerous problems with the mail system, including bills being returned marked undeliverable, lost in transit, or, in some cases, delivered several months late. We understand how aggravating and frustrating this situation can be, and we want you to know that we share that frustration.
Please note that, as stated on the back of your bill, failure to receive a bill does not relieve you of your obligation to pay for service. Once bills are delivered to the post office, we have no means of tracking them unless they are returned to our office.
To help avoid these issues, we encourage all customers to consider enrolling in our Paperless Billing option, which allows you to receive your bill by email each month. If you have not received your bill by the 1st of each month, please contact our office at (276) 991-0200 Option 2 so that we can provide your balance and payment information. Also, available is automatic bill pay.
We deeply value our customers and appreciate your patience and understanding as we continue to work through these challenges. Thank you for your continued support and cooperation.
Sincerely,
Board of Directors
Russell County Public Service Authority
