It's my understanding the pH of the water is what corroded the pipes downstream from the water plant and released lead present in those pipes. The Flint River isn't 'leaded', so drinking water straight from the water department plant isn't dangerous. No filter needed.
Any house with PVC, water mains made of steel/cast iron/logs (Chicago has these) wouldn't be a problem. And JFC, who since the fucking Romans 2000 years ago used lead to make pipes? (the Roman pipes were actually safe since they had hard water that precipitated a protective coating inside the plumbing containing the lead content, BTW).
Am I missing something about the Flint River then ?

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
