Some states reject federal money to find, replace lead pipes | National & World News

As the Biden administration makes billions of dollars available to remove millions of dangerous lead pipes that can contaminate drinking water and damage brain development in children, some states are turning down funds. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law included $15 billion to help remove lead pipes that can deposit dangerous amounts of lead in tap water. Washington, Oregon, Maine and Alaska declined all or most of the money. Activists say declining the money could mean failing to address an important public health issue.
