It took more than 10 years, but Flint, Michigan is finally done replacing thousands of lead pipes.

Lapses in water treatment and aging pipes had contaminated the city's drinking water and exposed some residents to dangerous levels of lead. NPR's Kristen Wright reports Flint

is marking its progress as federal efforts stall to replace lead pipes. Under a legal settlement,

the city of Flint excavated about 28,000 homes to check the pipes and replaced close to 11,000 lead and galvanized steel lines with copper. On the same day the city reported its progress, the federal government further delayed Biden-era regulations, requiring the replacement of lead pipes and drinking water systems around the country within 10

years. In a court filing, the EPA says its new leadership is still reviewing the rule issued last

October to determine appropriate next steps, and it needs another 30 days. The Biden administration

estimated up to 9 million homes have old lead pipes that disproportionately expose low-income and communities of color.
