Ok property owners. Have yall heard about the BS going on about the water line between your meter and your house?

I fixed my neighbors house Friday. They had PVC that was broken so I replaced it with PexA. While working on it HUD shows up. (HIXSON Utility District) nobody called he just happened by. He told me they had to file a report with the epa by the end of October. He has 30k homes he’s responsible for. They need to know what people have better the meter and the house. He was documenting what I was doing. They know what is happening in about 12k homes. After they file the report they have 2 years to go out and dig up the house side of the meter to see what everyone else has. At the end of that 2 years people who don’t have copper or PexA will be shut off till they upgrade. As it’s on the house side it will be the homeowner’s responsibility to pay for it.

Hurrah for alphabet agencies.

Thats complete BS. Government overreach strikes again. Tbh though it sounds like a business opportunity too...you could buy a machine and do that job for half the prices above. Be helping people stuck in a bad situation and making good money too. I repiped my whole house except for the main drain line when we bought it. Burying a new 3/4 pex line in the yard is the easiest part honestly...

Sorry, Grand. Bastard people strike again. I'd wager they'll regret this decision soon enough.

FWIW, I also was fired after 25 years with my company. Last day was May 1st. Was fortunately able to retire and haven't missed work one bit.

I know no matter what you decide to do next you'll find success. You're a smart man, G.
