VSB Water Testing Results 2019
The certified results are reported in milligrams per liter (mg/L). The current Canadian guideline for lead in drinking water is a maximum acceptable concentration of 0.005 mg/L (5 parts per billion) in drinking water. Where results were above 0.005 mg/L, those fountains were closed.
Samples were taken at active school sites built before 1990, when the use of lead solder in pipes was restricted in the BC plumbing code.
