“More than 100 Chicago Park District drinking fountains have been running nonstop for months – their on and off buttons intentionally disabled by the district,” Monica Eng reports for WBEZ.
“This week, park officials revealed why. They made the move, they said, because tests showed these fountains deliver dangerously high lead-levels when they are returned to manual push-button operation. A continuous flow of water, however, reduces the lead levels substantially, officials said.”
Somehow not reassuring!
