The Army is sampling drinking water outlets in Army Family Housing (AFH) units for lead as a proactive measure to protect children's health. This effort began in 2013 and aims to test 20% of AFH units annually over five years.

Testing specific outlets can help identify potential lead issues and inform policy. Elevated lead levels above 15 parts per billion will trigger corrective actions like providing alternative water or installing filters. The goal is to ensure children's safety through detailed information on housing unit water quality.
