LinkLinks DCist: New Bill Would Mandate Lead Testing At All D.C.-Owned Playgrounds With Synthetic Materials By Editor On Feb 18, 2020 Last updated Feb 18, 2020 18 Share At-large Councilmember Robert White introduced a bill on Tuesday imposing stricter standards on the city to test and remediate publicly-owned playgrounds for hazardous materials like lead. The bill comes in the wake of city analyses last year that found 17 D.C. school playgrounds contained elevated levels of lead. Three of those playgrounds had to be closed for remediation. 18 Share FacebookTwitterReddItWhatsAppEmailPrint
