Rhode Island Infrastructure Bank Awards $320,000 to North Providence for Residential Lead Line Upgrades

Rhode Island Infrastructure Bank Awards
$320,000 to North Providence for Residential Lead Line Upgrades
(North Providence, RI, December, 2025)

Mayor Charles Lombardi announced today that the Town of North Providence will be able to continue its successful “Remove/Replace the Whole Lead Pipe Program” with a $320,000.00 award from the Rhode Island Infrastructure Bank through the Water Infrastructure Improvement for the Nation (WIIN) Act . Funding will allow for approximately 70 additional homes to be serviced, this time in the Marieville neighborhood of North Providence.

Mayor Lombardi praised the Rhode Island Infrastructure Bank for their consistent recognition and support of this project – the first of its kind in New England to creatively mobilize private and public resources via a coalition which Mayor Lombardi convened in 2016. Due largely to last year’s award from the RI Infrastructure Bank, North Providence was able to upgrade 134 private side residential properties, with Providence Water authorizing 69 public side water line replacements in the Fruit Hill, Geneva, Lymansville, Allendale, and Centerdale neighborhoods of North Providence, for a total of 134 lead lines upgraded in 2025.

Lombardi began working with EPA Region 1 in 2016, being the first and only Mayor in New England and one just of a handful of mayors across the country to formally recognize the dangers of lead water lines, especially to children, and acted with urgency for them to be replaced. The EPA awarded Mayor Lombardi with a Children’s Health Environmental Merit Award in 2018 for recognition of his exceptional work and commitment to the environment. The EPA went to North Providence to produce a video on the “Getting the Lead Out” that was posted on the EPA National website https://youtu.be/gmaAyUDwzfs.

North Providence currently has around 840 lead water lines remaining,

Lombardi’s goal is to eliminate 100% of them.

PROVIDENCE, RI — Today, Governor Dan McKee issued a message to the public urging Rhode Islanders who may have been impacted by the data security threat to RIBridges to take five key steps to protect their personal information.

“Right now, the most important thing for potentially impacted Rhode Islanders to do is protect your personal information,” said Governor Dan McKee. “Freezing your credit, contacting the credit bureaus, setting up multiple levels of security, and staying alert will help keep your identity safe. Together, we will navigate this challenge.”

RIBridges is the health and human services database managed by Deloitte. Rhode Islanders who may have been impacted by this security threat are encouraged to:

1. Freeze Your Credit
• You should contact all three credit reporting agencies to do so.
• Equifax 1-888-298-0045
• Experian: 1-888-397-3742
• TransUnion: 1-800-916-8800

2. Order a Free Credit Report
• You should request from one of the listed reporting agencies
• You can also access a free credit report online here

3. Place a Fraud Alert on Your Files
• You can ask one of the credit reporting agencies for help.
• This is free, and it lets creditors know to contact you before any new accounts can be opened in your name.

4. Use Multi-factor Authentication
• Double protection makes it much harder for cybercriminals to access your information.

5. Be Aware
• Never share personal information – such as your social security number, date of birth or password – through an unsolicited e-mail, call or text. Legitimate companies and banks do not know your password and will never ask for it.
