    With funding set to dry up, Minneapolis faces tough choices on lead pipe removal

    Minneapolis workers are replacing old lead pipes with copper piping to eliminate health risks associated with the metal, a service paid for by state and federal funding. However, this essential work faces significant challenges because supporting funds are set to expire at the end of 2027. This lack of continuity forces Minneapolis public works employees to make difficult choices regarding which neighborhoods need immediate infrastructure attention.
