Over the past month, Environment, Health and Safety has been testing water fixtures across campus for lead levels and received results back that there is detectable lead in multiple buildings.
Below on this page you will find a list of all the buildings with these fixtures. We will post updates to this page as we have them. In addition, we will send updates on the new EHS X channel @unc_ehs. Please follow that account to stay informed.
For questions and further information, please refer to the FAQs included on this web page. Additional questions can be directed to Environment, Health and Safety at 919-962-5507.
