The only serious problem in Flint, MI is the hysteria over low levels
of lead in the drinking water in a small area.

The short term solution is to simply not give babies and small children
tap water to drink while pipes are replaced.

In the long term, replace all the old pipe with plastic pipe which has
neither a leeching problem nor a corrosion problem.
