Thank you, | will pass this to Marty Ackkey. Louls Burgess

Generally, my understanding is that schools on comrnunity / municipal water supplies are covered by the existing requigtory framework for water issues, and if they want additional testing, they'd work through local community health departments to get water testing done. Ifa school is on lis own water source, they're already required ta regular water testing, same as a municipal provider. Right now, this issue ig in the news because of extensive water testing that is being conducted in Fimnt by DEO staff with the help of LARA plumbing experts. Depending on whe the reporter is, you're welcome io send them our way or (Jen's way). b
