New Jersey S1257 mandates annual lead testing in drinking water at higher education institutions, reporting results, and installing lead filters in.
New Jersey S1257 requires institutions of higher education to test for lead in drinking water annually, report the test results, and install lead filters or treatment devices. Each institution must identify buildings with lead pipes, solder, or fixtures and provide a list to the Secretary of Higher Education. If testing reveals elevated lead levels, the institution must close off the affected outlet and provide an alternate drinking water supply. The act mandates institutions to notify students, faculty, and staff of test results and remediation actions.
