Lead in Drinking Water – Ohio Leads the Way. What More Is Needed?
Lead is an important metal that has been frequently used in household products and construction materials for millennia. The significant health impacts of lead ingested unknowingly or by accident became widely understood in the 20th Century, including issues of lead previously widely used in paint and lead in drinking water pipes. But lead in such water pipes is so ubiquitous, new situations continue to arise, as in Flint, Michigan and Sebring, Ohio recently. What is being done in Ohio to address these serious health and infrastructure issues, and what more should be consider?

Payment and Registration Information
To pay by cash/check, eRequest or Student Scholarship, please use the "Register to attend this event" button below. (Registration Closed)
Pay at the door by check/cash: $10, with checks payable to the Ohio State University.
Registrations marked "pay at the door" may be cancelled no later than noon Wednesday, November 30. After that, there are no refunds and any registrant failing to cancel by the deadline and who does not attend and pay at the door must mail a check for $10 per the information below within ten days. (This is necessary because the $10 registration does not even fully cover the cost of food, coffee, juice ordered and paid for for each registration; any sponsor funds go towards room rental, recording, printing, etc.) We appreciate your assistance in keeping the EPN breakfasts solvent.
