"Senate Substitute 1 for Senate Bill SB-270 (SS1 for SB270) directed the Delaware Department of Education (DOE) to establish an evaluation and assessment system to determine whether a school facility is in good repair. The facility assessment tool will help school districts review and assess conditions in a standardized way. See tools here.

"The legislation also directed DPH to establish a routine indoor air quality monitoring program and temperature and humidity standards for schools. It further required DPH to create a contractor certification program for indoor air quality services and procedures for receiving and reporting indoor air quality complaints in schools."
