The Michigan House Oversight Subcommittee on Public Health and Food Security held a hearing on implementation of the states "Filter First" law requiring certified filters at drinking-water outlets in schools and child-care centers. Superintendents, facility directors, a licensed plumber and an early-childhood provider testified that grants cover startup costs only, guidance from EGLE has been inconsistent, inline/entry-point filters are excluded from reimbursement, and recurring testing and replacement costs create ongoing burdens. Witnesses urged clearer guidance, sustainable funding, and targeted remediation based on testing rather than a one-size-fits-all mandate.
