Trial to Test Contractors' Liability for Flint Water Crisis
A trial started in Ann Arbor, Mich., to determine if
engineering contractors bear responsibility for
lead-contaminated water in Flint.
Veolia North America and Lockwood, Andrews &
Newman, known as LAN, were not part of the recent

early December.
