Use of Facilities
District Policy
Public school buildings are primarily for use by public schools and their programs. The Carlstadt-East Rutherford Regional School District is at the heart of the community. With a strong tie between the district and the people it serves, collaborative opportunities exist when it comes to facility use. Therefore, the Board of Education believes in the benefits of community use of school facilities if such use does not conflict with the educational program of the schools and when such use does not place the district in a vulnerable position regarding liability.
The Board of Education reserves the right to refuse rental services for activities that in the sole judgment of the board are illegal, violent, immoral, may endanger the health or safety of persons involved, or may result in damage to school property. The Board further reserves the right at anytime, to establish and revise rules, regulations, and fees for use of school facilities. Initial and continued use of school facilities will depend upon compliance with the rules and regulations of the Board of Education policies. Failure to comply with the the USE OF SCHOOL FACILITIES POLICY will result in the loss of privilege to use our school facilities.

Water Quality
Lead Drinking Water Testing Sampling Plan
All testing was performed in accordance with the Department of Environmental Protection. On Tuesday, November 15, 2016 we closed the building at 9:00 PM. The building had to sit unoccupied for 8 hours before testing. Westchester Environmental arrived Wednesday, November 16, 2016, at 5:00 AM and performed the first draw samples on all fountains and sinks that needed to be tested. At that time, all labels with the identification numbers were installed on all fountains and sinks.
We received the results of the first draw on November 29, 2016. Any fountains or sinks that came back above 15.5 parts per billion was shut down and isolated. The second part of the sampling is the follow up flush samples.
All repairs that were needed to correct the problems were performed by the Becton Regional maintenance staff. We replaced every bubbler on every water fountain. The old bubblers that were on the water fountains had plugged screens and were possibly lead lined. The new bubblers come lead free (see attached). We replaced faucets that were old and corroded in the faculty rooms and re-piped under the sink in the first floor faculty room. We removed all strainers on the faucets and cleaned and soaked them in CLR. We flushed the screens and installed them back on the faucets.
We performed a complete flushing of the water system on Monday, December 12, 2016. We flushed the domestic hot water system from the boiler room. We had to flush the hot water return line until it started running cold water. The hot water system needed to be flushed because the building has several mixing valves which can mix hot water into the cold water. All cold lines were flushed in all the fountains, the custodial room sinks, the kitchen sinks and the faculty rooms. Westchester Environmental returned at 4:30 AM on Tuesday, December 13, 2016 to perform the flush samples. The sink or fountain being tested can run for 30 seconds before taking the samples.
After all the repairs and the proper flushing was completed, the final results came back below the 15.5 parts per billion except one fixture that was valved off and closed.
