Benton Harbor s public water supply exceeded federal safety guidelines for lead for three straight years, before an outcry spurred additional state action.
Benton Harbor hit a major milestone Wednesday, according to city and state leaders who announced that 99 percent of the city's lead lines have been inspected and replaced.
Four years from the onset of the city’s lead-in-water crisis, crews have removed 99 percent of lead service lines from the city’s water delivery system.
On Friday, FOX 17 received a copy of the complaint Benton Harbor community members filed against the state of Michigan, Governor Gretchen Whitmer and several other state officials.
