What to Expect Next

Once your application has been reviewed, a DEQ representative will contact you to schedule an initial inventory. After the inventory, a sampling kit will be prepared and you will be contacted for an appropriate sampling date and time. Keep in mind, sampling events must be done early in the morning and during a normal school week in order to get the most accurate results. Once complete all samples will be sent to the lab for analysis.

After the lab has analyzed the samples and sent the results to the LWSC program coordinator, you will then receive a copy of the results, along with a summary of any lead exceedance locations. In the event of a lead exceedance you will be provided with remediation suggestions and assistance. After all remediation efforts are implemented DEQ will conduct a resampling event to ensure that the issue has been resolved.
