Flint Mayor Karen Weaver (D) says she will move forward with a plan to replace some 15,000 lead service lines connecting city pipes to residences.
She announced on Feb. 10 that a team of technical experts from the Lansing Board of Water & Light (BWL), which has removed approximately 13,500 pipes over the past 12 years at a cost of $42 million, will help Flint to move forward with the “Fast Start” plan.
