S cherzinger said that m ost o f
the problem s stem from drinking
w ater faucets, also called “b u b ­
blers.” H e noted that there are prob­
ably som e problem pipes as well.
The district w ill im m ediately
begin to replace all problem b u b ­
blers, add in-line w ater filters and,
w here needed, replace pipes. R e­
pairs will be paid for w ith facility
bond funds, and w ill not affect
m oney designated for instruction.
In high enough quantities, lead
can cause d evelopm ental p ro b ­
lems, particularly in children under
tw o years o f age. A ccording to the
EPA , lead in w ater is alm ost never
the sole cause o f serious p ro b ­
lem s. D ete rio ra tin g lead -b ased
paint, usually in the hom e, is by far
the m ost im portant w ay young
children are exposed to lead.
“N ational data tells us that lead
in w ater is a m inor co n tributor to
elevated lead levels, said G ary
O xm an, M . D ., M ul tnom ah County
H ealth O fficer. “ In dozens o f in­
vestigations o f children w ith el­
evated blood levels in M ultnom ah
C ounty, drinking w ater has never
been im plicated as an im portant
source o f exposure.”

People gru d g in g ly said they
could live w ith four-story build­
ings. “ I’d like to see them low ered
another ten feet, but I d o n ’t think
that will happen,” one m an said.
Radigan w arned, “ T hese are
design concepts, not blueprints,
and they could be altered.”
She asked w hat features should
be retained at all costs. Residents
cited the design o f the row houses
and the m aterials used in the larger
buildings.
“B ecause o f your participation,
w e ’ll get a project o f the quality we
w ant and deserv e,” Radigan said.
Dr. O xm an further advised par­
ents that because lead has been
found in Portland Public Schools
water, they do not need to rush out
to get their child tested. “ I f y o u ’re
w orried about y o u r child and lead,
y o u r re a l c o n c e rn sh o u ld be
w hether they are exposed to dete­
riorating lead-paint,” he said.
S ch erzin g er em phasized that
lead from all sources needs to be
kept as tow as possible, and that
the district is being very aggres­
sive in d oing that. T he district has
not used lead paint since 1974.
“W e had a com plaint-driven
system before to address prob­
lems such as peeling paint; now we
are proactively inspecting and re­
pairing all buildings. W e urge all
parents to look for and reduce
potential sources o f lead at hom e
as w ell,” he said.
T he Portland district first tested
its w ater in 1991, and was one o f the
first in the state to do so. Tw enty-
three schools had one or m ore
sam ples over the E PA action level
at that time. B ecause flushing i»
one o f E PA ’s recom m ended in­
terim opt ions for low ering lead, the
district continued w ith its w ater-
flushing program .
“ It’s now tim e for perm anent
changes,” S cherzinger said.
