Michigan HB5507 revises water quality standards in schools, requiring filtered bottle-filling stations and faucets for human consumption.

Michigan HB5507 amends the Clean Drinking Water Access Act to enhance water quality standards in schools. Schools must develop and update drinking water management plans every five years, specifying water outlet locations and maintenance schedules. Schools must install filtered bottle-filling stations and faucets for human consumption, shutting off non-compliant outlets. Annual water sampling and testing are required, with specific actions taken if lead concentrations exceed safe levels. The bill also mandates annual reporting to the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy.
