As of June 1, 2021 the action level for lead in drinking water in all Maryland public and nonpublic schools has been lowered from 20 parts per billion (ppb) to 5 ppb. Per the new regulation, all previous sampling results must be assessed, and action taken on fixtures with results between 5 ppb and 20 ppb. This includes issuing an updated notification.
The Board of Education of Baltimore County already established a standard of 5 ppb for our schools and remediation has already occurred for these fixtures.
