more finger-pointing, this time Obama's EPA, while they admit fault for it, they point their finger at local officials for it.


EPA admits fault, blames Michigan officials over Flint


Quote:
Washington ?? The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency admitted Tuesday it should have acted more swiftly in addressing the issues with Flint's drinking water.

An EPA spokeswoman told Reuters that the federal agency did not act fast enough in addressing the growing problem in the city.

While the federal agency worked to ??repeatedly and urgently communicate the steps the state needed to take to properly treat its water, those necessary actions were not taken as quickly as they should have been,? the EPA said in a Tuesday statement.

While the situation in Flint was ??unusual,? the EPA said its ability to oversee state environmental regulators?? management of the situation was ??impacted by failures and resistance at the state and local levels to work with us in a forthright, transparent and proactive manner consistent with the seriousness of the risks to public health,? the statement says.
