Lead in Gardner Public Schools' Water

Lead in Gardner Public Schools' Water

Thank you to Bob M. for the link to this information. So where is this information for the Narragansett Regional School District? It's all about the children, right?


 The Gardner High school 2nd floor bubbler Stairway C registered 
7.6 mg/L  The Mass action Level for lead in the drinking water is 0.015mg/L.



But no worries. "We have removed from service all taps with lead levels over the Action Level." 

So are there any bubblers or faucets still turned on?

Makes you wonder where to find this data for the school YOUR child attends?

  1. It appear that the Massdep request schools to submit a form every year.

    The worcester telegram just ran an article about schools in MA tested positive for lead and copper.

    Many of the schools tested positive. I'll add the complete list.
