Water workers helping replace drinking water pipes

Water is one of our most valuable resources in Michigan and is necessary to sustain life. Governor Gretchen Whitmer officially designated the week of December 12-18, 2022, as *Water and Wastewater Professionals Workforce Week [ [link removed] ]* to recognize the important role these critical water professionals play in keeping the water running through our pipes each day.
