Fundamental Questions About Flint Water Crisis

Why did the Flint Department of Public Works, the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality or third-party engineers who studied the Flint water system determine the vital necessity for corrosion control before the switch from Lake Huron to Flint River water?

Why did it take Professor Marc Edwards, a professor from Virginia Tech University, to conduct tests of children in Flint for the presence of lead poisoning to resulting concerted action?  

Why was the urgency in the interim report by EPA scientist Miguel Del Toral not a catalyst for constructive action on lead contamination?
