Getting the Lead Out
Posted July 1, 2021, Length: 20:57
The health risks posed by lead water service lines are well known. Just how common is this invisible hazard in our potable water? What can we do to address it? To explore the problem, responses to it, and the costs, we talk with Steve Via, Director of Federal Relations for the American Water Works Association.
The Infrastructure Show is sponsored by Northwestern University.
