          Bill  
          Summary:  SB 1398 requires public water systems, by July 1,  
          2018, to compile an inventory of lead pipes in use and, after  
          completing the inventory to provide a timeline for replacement  
          of lead pipes in the system to the State Water Resources Control  
          Board (SWRCB).   The bill also requires SWRCB to establish best  
          practices to ensure that chemicals introduced into public water  
          systems do not create corrosion or contamination within the  
          system.
