A demonstration of safer drinking water programs for schools and child care.
This fictional demonstration shows how a statewide program could provide test kits, lab analysis, training, and remediation support. No facility or result shown represents a real school, community, or testing outcome.
Demo program stats
The EPA 3Ts
Training, Testing, and Taking Action — the framework this program follows.
- 1. Training
Staff complete short modules on lead sources, health effects, building a sampling plan, and collecting samples correctly — before a kit ships.
- 2. Testing
Every drinking and food-prep outlet is inventoried and sampled first-draw after an 8–18 hour stagnation window, with digital chain of custody.
- 3. Taking Action
Any outlet at or above the action level comes out of service immediately, gets a short-term control, and a permanent fix with a post-mitigation retest.
What our action level means
10 ppb of lead
This example program uses a fictional 10 parts per billion (ppb) action level configuration for demonstration purposes only.
