Md. Bill aims to improve air quality in public schools
The pandemic has made air filtration more important than ever, and lawmakers in the Maryland House of Delegates have begun considering a bill that would force public schools statewide to test air quality in classrooms routinely every school year.
A hearing on the legislation is scheduled for Friday in the House Environment and Transportation Committee.
“This is really about making sure that the air quality that our students breathe and our educators breathe is the best that it can be,” said Del. Jared Solomon, the bill’s sponsor.
Similar to laws already on the books for monitoring lead in school drinking water, the bill would require schools to test carbon dioxide levels in classrooms at least two times each school year — once during the cooling season and once during the heating season.
The program would be led by the Maryland Department of the Environment and Maryland State Department of Education.
“This is an issue that obviously is much more front and center now that we’re facing COVID,” Solomon said. “We’re trying to figure out the best ways to keep our students and educators safe.”
It would require each county board of education across Maryland to develop a policy and implementation plan.
