About a decade after the Flint water crisis, the Biden administration is requiring the removal of most of the nation’s lead-contaminated water pipes within 10 years.  The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is issuing a final rule that forces water systems to replace water lines containing lead within a decade. It expects that between 96 and 99 percent of systems will be able to achieve this.  President Biden is expected to announce the new rule during a visit to Milwaukee on Tuesday, where the administration says federal funds have helped push the timeline for replacing lead pipes from 60 years down to 10. Exposure to lead can cause brain and nervous system damage in children.
