Lead in Water Results
From 2016-2018 over 6,500 samples from 73 schools/buildings were collected and analyzed.
Testing results from 2016-2018 showed that in Saint Paul Public Schools, 96.5% of fixtures showed results below the EPA/MDH threshold limit of 15 ppb. For drinking water fountains, a major source of water consumption in schools 99.5% passed the lead test .
All fountains/fixtures that yielded samples with levels over EPA/MDH guideline were shut off, bagged off and will be labeled “Out of Order” until they are repaired or replaced. 5 year testing for all buildings is in the process of being conducted.
