Water for Waukesha?
Dec 18th, 2009 | By Dave Reid | Category: Lake Michigan, WaukeshaWaukesha has been working towards obtaining a diversion of Lake Michigan water from the City of Milwaukee purportedly, because Waukesha has an issue with radium in their water supply due to depletion of their well water levels to an unsustainable level. The question of selling Great Lakes water to communities outside of the Great Lakes Basin is one that demands numerous questions be answered prior to any diversion being allowed. The request needs extra scrutiny because it would be the first request of its kind handled under the recently past Great Lakes Compact.
