Westchester is offering free testing kits to help residents determine if there’s lead in their drinking water.
Residents who are concerned about potential lead in their water can send in a sample and get test results back within a month.
All residents are eligible to receive the test kit, whether they’re served by a private well or public water system.
To request a free lead testing kit, residents should go to the Westchester County Department of Health’s website for instructions or call (518)402-7650.
Residents will be asked to provide their name, phone number, email address and address to mail a test kit.
After reviewing their results, residents who have questions may call the health department at (914) 813-5000.
