There's got to be a Republican at fault here somewhere.

I pointed this out months ago when the Flint thing came up. Lead in
drinking water is prevalent all over the country, mostly in older
cities that used lead pipe in the distribution but there is also lead
leaching out of soldered copper pipe.
The problem is, they only check water at the plant, not after it has
flowed through miles of lead pipe. The Flint water looked fine when it
left the Flint River water plant. It was contaminated along the way
and it begs the question, was that water ever tested at the tap when
it was coming from Detroit?
