PCB Testing

Act 74 - PCB Testing in Schools

Vermont has requirements for schools to test for PCBs and to make fixes if levels are high. In 2021, a Vermont law passed (Act 74) requiring all schools built or renovated before 1980 to test their indoor air for PCBs. Testing of schools will be completed by July 2025. The Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) has the authority to require schools to make fixes that will lower exposure to PCBs, if levels are found at or above the school action level.
The Department of Health's PCB webpage has more information about PCBs

Vermont has set a more stringent threshold for PCB levels than the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standards.
