Flint to stay on Detroit water through new pipeline?

March 16, 2017
No Comments
A construction crew works on laying pipe for the Karegnondi Water Authority pipeline.

Genesee County is planning to build a connector to the Karegnondi Water Authority pipeline in order to start treating Lake Huron water and allow the city of Flint to continue receiving Detroit water.

The seven-mile pipeline would make it possible for Flint to keep buying pre-treated water from the Great Lakes Water Authority until at least 2019.

The connector construction is expected to begin in May and cost at least $12 million. County Drain Commissioner Jeff Wright says the county would have to otherwise spend over $60 million on Great Lakes Water Authority while waiting for Flint to decide on future permanent water sources.
