  • 2015年香港食水管道含重金屬超標事件，官方稱食水含鉛事件，是指從2015年7月起，香港部分公共屋邨、居屋、私人屋苑、醫院及教育機構被揭發食水含重金屬量嚴重超標的事件。建築商中國建築於事件後與政府及相關機構分别調查建築過程以及物料，發現成因是焊工使用了含鉛焊料所致。調查報告也顯示，雖然銅合金裝置亦會釋出鉛，但不會導致食水含鉛量超標。而事後沒有人需要就事件負責和懲處。 (zh)

  • Samples of potable water in Hong Kong were found to contain excessive levels of heavy metals including lead, nickel and cadmium in 2015. Such discoveries of contamination caused widespread crisis within the city. The scandal began in June 2015 when the Democratic Party announced that testing of drinking water at Kai Ching Estate in Kowloon revealed lead contamination. The Hong Kong Housing Authority subsequently confirmed that the levels of lead exceeded the standard established by the World Health Organization. Since the initial discovery at Kai Tak, lead contamination of drinking water has been found at numerous other housing estates, schools, and public buildings across Hong Kong. (en)
