Lead Testing Results for Imlay Elementary School
10/11/16
To the staff and parents of Imlay Elementary School,
Over the summer, we conducted water testing at all District facilities and have been awaiting the results, which are coming in one-by-one. We just received the report for Imlay Elementary School, where 106 possible sources of drinking water were tested. Results are that the samples at two exterior hose bibs indicate an elevated level of lead (see locations below). This means that the water sources will be removed from service, the fixtures will be replaced, and additional testing will be conducted. Only when further testing reveals that the water sources have lead concentrations below the EPA’s recommended action level of 20 parts per billion (ppb) will those water sources be returned to service as possible sources of drinking water.
Water sources with results showing an elevated lead level:
- Exterior Hose Bib, West Wall of Gym
- Exterior NE Corner of Building, Near Room 110
