FLINT, MI — The Democratic leader of the U.S. House of Representatives is marking the two-year anniversary of federal recognition of the Flint water crisis by calling for new investment in the nation’s infrastructure.
Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi issued a statement Tuesday, Jan. 16, two years after President Barack Obama issued an emergency declaration to address the water crisis, which she called a "disaster (that) sadly remains far from over."
Pelosi was part of a congressional delegation that visited Flint early in 2016 to access the emergency, which continues, her statement Tuesday said.
"Thousands of children are still required to drink bottled water, and countless families continue to live under a cloud of fear and uncertainty about the impacts of years of lead exposure," her statement says.
"The Americans caught in this unconscionable, man-made catastrophe continue to need critical services such as high-quality health care and educational services, as well as resources to continue monitoring the safety of their water supply and the health of their children."
The federal government provided Flint with resources, including $100 million in funding for water infrastructure improvements here, after the city ended its use of the Flint River as a drinking water source in October 2015.
Pelosi credited U.S. Rep. Dan Kildee, D-Flint Township, for his attention to the water crisis, and said other water systems and infrastructure elsewhere also needs attention.
Kildee said in a statement that Flint still needs help, particularly from the state, as the city rebounds.
State officials, citing dropping levels of lead in Flint water during the past 18 months, have said they may reconsider state funding for bottled water in the near future.
In addition to funding for bottled water and other work in Flint, the state provided a $20 million match to federal funds for lead service line replacement and other infrastructure upgrades in the city.

NORFOLK, Va. – Officials in Norfolk are trying to help residents of the Young Terrace apartments who lost water on Wednesday.
The Norfolk Redevelopment & Housing Authority in a Facebook post said they are working to fix a valve issue that has not allowed water to flow in the building.
“Crews continue to work onsite.
Damage to the valve are more extensive then initially anticipated.
We hope to have full restoration of water by the end of the day today.
We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience and understanding to get this issue resolved,” said NRHA.
Norfolk has set up an area where residents of the Young Terrace can wash, take showers and use the bathroom.
The Huntersville Multie-Purpose Center on 830 Goff Street is the location, and also the Young Terrace Recreation Center also has water running, but will close at 4:30 p.m. To use the showers and bathrooms at The Huntersville Multi-Purpose Center, schedule a time by calling (757) 624-8609.
Transportation is also available for residents of Young Terrace if needed.
Cases of bottled water are available for residents, one per household, and can be picked up at the property management office, according to NRHA.

Rest easy, residents of Myrtle Creek.
According to health standards established by the Environmental Protection Agency, trace amounts of radium in drinking water are perfectly safe.
In 2011, Environmental Working Group listed Myrtle Creek’s water with an average radium level of 0.6 picoCuries per liter, well below the federal Environmental Protection Agency’s established maximum contaminant level of 5 pC/L.
Myrtle Creek City Administrator Sean Negherbon said the city’s drinking water continues to more than meet guidelines from the Safe Drinking Water Act.
"Our goal at the city of Myrtle Creek is to provide you with a safe and dependable supply of drinking water," Negherbon wrote in a statement.
"As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity," he wrote.
The city of Myrtle Creek treats water from Springbrook Springs and the South Umpqua River, and water from both sources showed small amounts of radium — the average result of 0.6 picoCuries per liter — detected in three of six samples during the city’s most recent testing in 2011.
No radium was detected in the other three samples.
"Detecting a contaminant at any level does not always mean there is a risk to public health," Negherbon said.
Negherbon said the city of Myrtle Creek’s Consumer Confidence Report is available online at cityofmyrtlecreek.com and at City Hall.

IBWA will become a national sponsor of America Recycles Day, a Keep America Beautiful national initiative that takes place annually on and in the weeks leading into Nov. 15.
“The International Bottled Water Association is very excited to be working with Keep America Beautiful on this shared mission to improve recycling,” says Joe Doss, IBWA president and CEO.
All bottled water containers are 100 percent recyclable – even the caps.
The fact that our containers are so easy to recycle, where facilities exists, is more important than ever now – as there are more and more opportunities for these recycled containers to have a second life, not only as new bottles but also shoes, clothing, outdoor decking, furniture, playgrounds, and more.” “This new partnership with Keep America Beautiful will help IBWA expand our current efforts to encourage consumers to always recycle their bottled water containers with caps on, while at home or on the go, while bringing a new focus to reach and change the behavior of those who are currently less inclined to participate in recycling,” Doss said.
“Partnerships with industry stakeholders such as the IBWA and the support of programs like America Recycles Day are critical to help raise awareness to improve recycling participation and access.” “We stand committed to helping Americans better understand recycling and its potential for economic, environmental and community benefits by working with all stakeholders—manufacturers; the waste management industry; government entities; other nonprofit organizations; trade associations and beyond—to make recycling more sustainable and a daily social norm for all people,” Lowman said.
Bottled water has the lowest water and energy use of all packaged beverages.
With an average weight of just 9.25 grams, bottled water containers use far less PET plastic than carbonated soft drinks and other beverage packaging, which on average weigh 23.9 grams per bottle.

Tennis fans attending day one of the tournament have taken to social media to express shock that the bottled water on sale is imported from China.
Rather than opt for an Australian brand, organisers are selling Ganten bottled water, which has been shipped from the Chinese city Shenzhen, A Current Affair reports.
Viewers commented on the Open’s use of product placement, with the Ganten logo visible on the side of the tennis umpires’ chairs.
In a statement, Tennis Australia said the Australian Open was a global event that had “a long history of partnering with international brands”.
The statement pointed out that the Open also partnered with “iconic Australian brands such as Jacobs Creek, Coopers, Vegemite and Country Road”.
“Ganten water is a premium brand that is associated with other major tennis and sporting events, including Juventus FC,” the statement said.
“The Australian Open continues to expand its global reach and partnerships, which helps to grow the sport at all levels in Australia.”

Pupils will start the year bringing their own bottled drinking water to at least one high school that is taking drastic steps to mitigate the effects of a looming water crisis in Cape Town.
When pupils return to school‚ they will have limited access to drinking water and some toilet facilities will be closed.
“As the water crisis heightens in the Western Cape in general and Cape Town in particular‚ Bergvliet High School is obliged to take measures to reduce our water consumption‚” said the notice from principal Stephen Price.
– Downstairs toilets being open before school‚ at breaks and after school – otherwise locked with keys available should they need to be used during lessons.
– One hand basin tap operational per bathroom‚ with the others disconnected.
Hand sanitiser will be provided.
– Pupils will be required to bring‚ according to a roster system‚ 5l of bottled water per month to be used daily in class.
The school told parents that it had been approached by the city’s disaster management team with a view to it being used as a water collection point for residents‚ should “Day Zero” arrive when the dams are empty.
The department is monitoring water consumption and will intervene where necessary where water consumption is excessive.
“The WCED has also issued spreadsheets to schools for monitoring water consumption in the mornings‚ afternoons and over weekends.

Water was being restored Monday morning to some downtown Steubenville residents and businesses as water department officials continued to watch for leaks.
A department spokesman said that if the high-pressue system holds, they will then start charging the downtown low-pressure system.
City Utility Director Chuck Murphy was hoping for the best, but also preparing for the worst-case scenario if more leaks in the downtown water system are discovered.
We want to get as much water as possible to the population downtown.
We want the system up and running.
“But there is the potential we may have to replace additional valves.
Murphy ordered the downtown water system shut down and placed the entire city on a mandatory conservation order after several large water leaks were suspected.
“We now have the University Boulevard corridor stabilized, and we want to maintain that,” he added.
Bottled water was still being distributed by city firefighters to residents who are disabled or unable to travel to the two water buffalo sites.
Eligible residents have been told to call the water filtration plant at 740-283-6041 to request the bottled water.

Allow the water to boil up to three minutes before turning off the heat source.
Allow the water to cool before putting it in a storage container.
The water system just over the state line in McCaysville, the supplier of Copperhill’s water, underwent work on its filtration system in late December, impacting service to all water utility customers who get their water from the McCaysville Water Utility.
A notice was posted on Fannin County, Ga.’s Emergency Management Agency website Friday telling McCaysville Water System customers to boil their water before using it.
"Due to loss of pressure in the water system and low tank levels, [customers] of the McCaysville Water System are under a boil advisory until further notice.
The advisory is in effect "until further notice," but McCaysville Mayor Thomas Seabolt said the work on the filtration system "is in the final stages," and the boil notice could be lifted by Wednesday if samples test as good and work on some leaks goes as planned.
Hopefully if they pass, which they should, we’ll be off of this boil notice by Wednesday," Seabolt said on Monday.
"They’ve been working 10 to 12 hours a day, six days a week," Seabolt said of repair crews.
The two towns are no strangers to water supply problems.
Copperhill, population about 350, and McCaysville, population a little more than 1,000, lie within the Ocoee River watershed on the mountainous eastern fringes of Tennessee’s Cherokee National Forest and Georgia’s Chattahoochee National Forest.

The people on the mountain top are running out of water.
On Monday, the water levels in the German settlement tank and Snow Shoe tank were at 13 and just more than 5 feet, respectively.
We need water.
Some residents suggested trucking water from Bellefonte, which has an abundance of clean water thanks to the Big Spring.
It would cost $300 per 5,000 gallons of water to get it hauled to the mountain top from Bellefonte, said Archie Passuello, who’s on the water authority board.
Schmoke, vice chairman of the board and Pine Glen fire chief, said they’re also so far away from other water systems that they wouldn’t be able to pipe it in.
The authority might get into a situation where it needs to look for new wells, authority board member John Rigg said.
Another issue is that about 50 percent of the authority’s water is lost through leaks or it’s unaccounted for or unmetered.
The entire system is made up of more than 100 miles of pipes, and the daily usage averages 365,000 gallons.
To replace every line on the mountain top would cost hundreds of millions, said Jim Yost, authority board chairman.
