Like all districts in New York

State, the Le Roy Central

School District has been in the

process of testing the district’s

water sources for lead water

contamination.

Tests were conducted on 299 de-

vices and 42 showed an elevated

level of lead in water. All eval-

uated areas were found in sinks

and faucets, many not even in

use. There were no drinking

fountains identified.

School officials received the

water testing results after school

on Thursday, January 5, 2017

and the District took immediate

action. All affected sources of

water were immediately turned

off and appropriate signage was

applied. These will remain in

place until lead levels are con-

firmed to be below the accept-

able limit of 15 parts per billion.

Follow-up testing will be con-

ducted to determine where the

lead is coming from. Any fau-

cets, fittings or pipes that have

been identified as a source of

lead will be replaced. While we

wait for the tests to determine

where the lead is coming from,

we do know that it is not coming

from the water itself. All public

water is subject to regular wa-

ter quality testing. According

to the Environmental Protec-

tion Agency (EPA), lead enters

drinking water primarily from

eroding materials that contain

lead, including faucets, fittings

and pipes.

The District will collaborate

with engineers and environ-

mental specialists to determine

the next steps. As a follow-up,

additional water testing will be

conducted to determine if the

replacement/remediation was

successful. Affected sinks and

faucets will not be placed back

in service until testing confirms

that lead levels are below the ac-

ceptable limit.

According to the EPA, lead in

drinking water is rarely the sole

cause of lead poisoning. Parents

who are concerned may wish

to speak with their family phy-

sician. For more information

about lead levels and drinking

water, visit the EPA' s web-

site at www.epa.gov and the

New York State Department of

Health's website at www.health.

ny.gov.

The health and safety of stu-

dents and staff is a top priority

for the Le Roy Central School

District Board of Education and

school administration. Please be

assured that we are taking the

necessary steps to address the

situation and to ensure the safe-

ty of drinking water through-

out the District. We will keep

you informed as we learn more

about where the lead is coming

from, and the steps we are tak-

ing to resolve the problem.
