Local news: EPA discussed Legionnaires' near Flint long before reports
Officials suspected a link between the new drinking water source for Flint, Michigan, and a Legionnaires' disease outbreak for months before the public was informed, local news reported as Flint's fire and police chief resigned Friday amid efforts to restructure city management after its water was tainted with lead.
At least six Environmental Protection Agency officials late last March discussed the Legionnaires' disease outbreak in Genesee County and a suspected link to Flint, Michigan's change in drinking water sources, and were told the state would alert the public, the Detroit News reported Friday.
