Jennifer Caddick, Alliance for the Great Lakes spokeswoman, says Waukesha can remove the radium for less than the cost of its diversion system and that its request could prompt “death by 1,000 straws” for the lakes, since other communities could line up and ask for a share.

“One little dip may not cause massive harm immediately,” Caddick said. “But the application by Waukesha is absolutely precedent-setting.”
