NPR: 'You Just Don't Touch That Tap Water Unless Absolutely Necessary'

October 3, 2018 Environmental, Water & Energy Equity

ACLC attorney Mary Cromer, fellow Ricki Draper and ACLC clients are featured today in an NPR story about Martin County’s continuing water problems.  “This isn’t just confined to Martin County. This isn’t just confined to Appalachia. We have dilapidated infrastructure all over this country,” [Mary Cromer] says. “And so if you’re going to have rural areas that are going to survive, much less thrive, you’ve got to pay attention to these critical infrastructure needs.”
