The water in every New York City public school was tested for lead in 2016. The vast majority of test results showed satisfactory lead levels. Drinking or cooking outlets that exceeded the action level for lead were immediately taken out of service, remediated, and not placed back into service until the outlet re-tested below the action level." <br /><br />In the new Capital Plan this last paragraph has been removed!<br /><br />Capital Plan for 2015-2019<br />https://dnnhh5cc1.blob.core.windows.net/portals/0/Capital_Plan/Capital_plans/02222018_15_19_CapitalPlan_CityCouncilBased.pdf?sr=b&si=DNNFileManagerPolicy&sig=gSgDPDsiDoT5U61J3MjHdOvuHbv78Gdvwa4fypdDvxo%3D<br /><br />Capital Plan for 2020-2024<br />https://dnnhh5cc1.blob.core.windows.net/portals/0/Capital_Plan/Capital_plans/11012018_20_24_CityCouncilBased.pdf?sr=b&si=DNNFileManagerPolicy&sig=XEV9UQAZTBSQrzUbOBhRBqu8Fu9bqK9RQuxZIs%2FEN4U%3D<br />Stacie Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00595183413174103673noreply@blogger.com
