Get the lead out? WMC sez no!


Lucas uses the s-word.  “The approach taken in this legislation, however, is flawed,” WMC environmental policy director Lucas Vebber said. “This legislation would socialize the costs of lead service line replacements over all of the utility’s rate payers, driving up costs even on those who already paid, out of their own pocket, to replace their own lead service lines. “
