Use a filter certified to NSF/ANSI 53 for lead on the tap you drink and cook from, now, before you test. Then test your own tap. If your own line is lead, replacing the private side runs about $1,200-$12,300 (EPA average about $4,700). Ask Golding Acres Water Assn whether it covers that cost before hiring anyone - many utilities now do. Its latest copper 90th percentile is 4690 ppb (copper action level 1,300 ppb).
