Benton Harbor urged to use bottled water for cooking and drinking
Michigan urges Benton Harbor residents to rely on bottled water as lead levels prompt state to distribute water and filters. EPA reviews filter efficacy while more than 15,000 cases of water are planned for delivery to the largely Black, low income city. Local activist Pinkney calls for clearer warnings as officials plan a $20 million pipe replacement program over five years.
