Sacramento State Students Leery Of Campus Water After Lead Tests

A town hall meeting held on Thursday is answering questions after toxic levels of lead were found in the water supply for Sacramento State. The study was done after the water crisis in Flint, Michigan. The overall goal is to have no lead in the water, but different agencies have different regulations for what’s acceptable. The California Department of Public Health allows lead concentration up to 0.2 micrograms per liter. The FDA allows up to five micrograms per liter. The Environmental Protection Agency takes action at 15 micrograms per liter.
