Lead In Water Annual Notice

Lead-in-Water
Minnesota Statute 121A.335 requires public school buildings serving kindergarten through grade 12 to test for lead in water every 5 years.  This statute also requires school districts to make the results of the testing available to the public for review and to notify parents of the availability of the information.  Notification may be accomplished by publishing a statement in the “Back to School” newsletter or publication that is available to staff, student, parents and the public. 

Mabel- Canton Public Schools is committed to providing a safe working and learning environment for employees and students.  The district has developed a lead in water management plan and testing program that complies with Minnesota Statute 121A.335, as well as recommendations from the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) Lead Contamination Control Act (LCCA) of 1988 and the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH). 

For more information on the districts lead reduction and testing program, please contact Gary Kuphal at 507-493-5422.
