  • Wisconsin Awarded $142 Million to Address PFAS, Lead Pipes

    A worker who identified himself only as Nate flares copper tubing as a crew swaps out a lea.d water service line for copper pipes in Milwaukee on June 29, 2021. Since 2017, Milwaukee Water Works says it has replaced 3,881 pipelines made of potentially hazardous lead. Eliminating the city’s remaining 70,000 lead pipes at that pace would take more than 70 years and cost hundreds of millions of dollars.
