Lead in Drinking Water

The School Facilities Board, in collaboration with the Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) and the Department of Health Services (ADHS), is working with Arizona school districts to remediate potential sources of lead in drinking water. School districts may apply for Building Renewal Grant (BRG) funding to replace drinking fountains and sink faucets, install in-line filters and conduct post-corrective action testing to ensure the availability of safe drinking water in Arizona schools. The link provided above is to the SFB's Lead in Drinking Water (LIDW) website where you will find links to school district test results and the status of BRG remediation projects through to completion. Please contact Kerry Campbell at [email protected] or 480-625-2906 if you have any questions about the program.

In addition, we have provided the link below to the ADEQ website for the proactive screening program.
