## Summary

**Would create a safe harbor so tax-exempt bonds can pay to replace privately owned portions of lead service lines.** This change targets projects that help public water systems meet federal lead standards. - Households with private lead service lines: The bill would let bond proceeds cover the privately owned portion of a lead service line when that replacement is needed to comply with the federal lead drinking-water rule. - Public water systems and communities: Clarifying eligible uses would make it clearer that replacements needed to achieve or maintain compliance count as bond-eligible projects. - State and local issuers and bond markets: The bill would amend Internal Revenue Code section 141(b)(6) by adding a new subsection and definitions so these uses are not treated as private business use for obligations issued after December 31, 2025.
