Bottling Lake Michigan Water Worth Exploring, New Commissioner Says
(Chicago Sun Times) — Mayor Daley has “no plans” to privatize Chicago’s water system, but bottling and selling the city’s “exceptional” tap water is worth exploring, newly-appointed Water Management Commissioner Tom Powers said today.
“The quality of the water that the department puts out is exceptional. In some cases, it’s better than bottled water,” Powers said after his City Council confirmation hearing.
