The Health Department has been notified by MDEQ of elevated lead levels in soil samples from a section of Port Huron between Water Street and Lapeer Avenue. Although the source of lead in this area remains unclear, preliminary reports have provided enough information for the Health Department to recommend blood lead testing for residents in this area. A letter from the Health Department was sent to residents inviting them to receive blood lead testing. Testing will be offered June 26 from 9:00am – 12:00pm and 5:00pm – 7:00pm at Harrison Center located at 55 15th Street, Port Huron. Other testing options include making an appointment at the St. Clair County Health Department or at your doctor’s office.
