Without appropriate corrosion control measures, the new water source leached lead, a potent neurotoxin, from the city\u2019s aging service lines into drinking water supplies. Tens of thousands of people \u2013 including children \u2013 were exposed to lead in concentrations sometimes exceeding one hundred times the actionable level set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Over a decade later, Flint\u2019s residents are still living with the consequences.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Many <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cen.acs.org\/environment\/water\/10-years-Flint-Michigan-still-faces-consequences\/102\/i14\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">long-term mental and physical health challenges<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> have been linked to the disaster, including depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, learning disabilities, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. The loss of trust in the water systems is so deep that many Flint residents still solely use bottled water for basic household needs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While Flint is a microcosm for the challenges facing disadvantaged communities across the United States, it is by no means unique. The USEPA estimates that there are nearly <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.epa.gov\/system\/files\/documents\/2023-04\/Final_DWINSA%20Public%20Factsheet%204.4.23.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">9.2 million lead service lines<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> buried in cities across the country, many in low-income communities concentrated in the Rust Belt, Florida, and Texas.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-14247\" src=\"https:\/\/isleutilities.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Untitled-design-6-300x169.png\" alt=\"Isle\u2019s Minority-Led U.S. Utilities Trial Reservoir\" width=\"659\" height=\"372\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dev.isleutilities.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Untitled-design-6-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/dev.isleutilities.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Untitled-design-6-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/dev.isleutilities.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Untitled-design-6-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 659px) 100vw, 659px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Image by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.epa.gov\/system\/files\/documents\/2023-04\/Final_DWINSA%20Public%20Factsheet%204.4.23.pdf\">USEPA\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The problem extends beyond just lead. Nearly <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nrdc.org\/sites\/default\/files\/watered-down-justice-report.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">25% of the U.S. population<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is served by drinking water systems in violation of the Safe Drinking Water Act: the federal law that is supposed to guarantee equitable access to clean drinking water for all Americans. Many of these violations are in communities that are economically or socially vulnerable. Because of the history of residential segregation in the U.S., populations of color more likely to live with aging, underdeveloped, and under-funded water infrastructure that is susceptible to health violations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the same time, people of color remain under-represented within the utilities that serve their communities. Hispanic and black workers tend to be significantly under-represented in higher level, better paying utility positions, such as engineering or management. As of 2016, black, Hispanic, and Asian workers combined comprised only <\/span><a href=\"about:blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">15% of water utility chief executives<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

As part of Isle\u2019s utility CEO Forum, a group of CEOs are advocating for a program to level the playing field for innovative risk-taking among utility leadership. Cathy Bailey of Greater Cincinnati Water Works (GCCW) is leading the charge.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the Executive Director for GCCW, the oldest water utility in the state of Ohio, Cathy has a long legacy to live up to. Over the course of her three decades working at GCCW, she\u2019s often felt the pressure of being a person of color in a leadership role, particularly now as the first African American female director in GCCW\u2019s history.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe water industry is still very white male-dominated,\u201d she says. \u201cIt brings a lot of challenges in how [minorities] are treated, how we\u2019re seen, and the expectations people sometimes have of us.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cathy has always been keenly aware of the unspoken responsibilities that come with her position. \u201cI always knew that a lot of eyes were on me,\u201d she says. Many of those eyes were not particularly friendly ones &#8211; a fact that made her a lot more risk-averse in her early days in leadership. \u201cAs a person of color leading a large water utility, you learn to take guarded risk.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, as Cathy is only too aware, risk is an inherent part of innovation. \u201cYou have to be willing to put things out there\u2026 you have to be open to failing.\u201d Many minority utility leaders lack the support they need to \u201cfail forward\u201d and thus drive bold innovation in their utilities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The MLUU amplifies the voices of minority-led utilities so that they can meet their sustainability and environmental justice goals. It provides minority utility leaders with guardrails to allow them the freedom to boldly innovate in the water space to the same extent as their peers. At the same time, the MLUU also encourages participants to elevate the socio-economic and environmental sustainability needs of disadvantaged communities within their utility service area.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Beyond GCCW, the MLUU has spurred enthusiastic engagement from end-users in South Carolina, Indiana, Kentucky, and beyond. As the network of trials for this Reservoir continues to expand, we look forward to connecting disadvantaged communities across the U.S. with technologies that can help meet their needs in new and innovative ways.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>A tool for self-advocacy <\/b><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14251\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14251\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-14251\" src=\"https:\/\/isleutilities.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1689953634420-300x300.jpeg\" alt=\"Reshmina William\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dev.isleutilities.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1689953634420-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/dev.isleutilities.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1689953634420-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/dev.isleutilities.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1689953634420-12x12.jpeg 12w, https:\/\/dev.isleutilities.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1689953634420.jpeg 389w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14251\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Reshmina William<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My role with the Trial Reservoir has in some ways been the culmination of a life-long passion for environmental justice. Over the course of my academic and professional career, I have seen the disproportionate environmental harms that affect our most vulnerable populations. I\u2019ve seen the lack of green space result in urban flooding on Chicago\u2019s South Side, and lead service lines clustered in some of the lowest-income areas in Washington, DC.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although we have access to incredible technologies that can treat, distribute, and recover water better than ever before, those technologies often don\u2019t find their way into the hands of those who need them most. With this Trial Reservoir, I see the chance to help right some of those inequities by lowering the barrier to innovation and amplifying the voices of minority and disadvantaged communities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Being a Trial Reservoir manager has helped me to grow as a professional and as a person. I\u2019ve helped to develop performance metrics, coordinate documentation, and draft media and press releases: tasks that have helped me in my duties as a Project Manager. On a personal level, working with the MLUU Trial Reservoir has given me the opportunity to interface with minority utility leaders across the country who are working diligently to make their communities better, one drop at a time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I believe that the MLUU is a unique opportunity to expand our work into communities who could greatly benefit from the financial and programmatic support that the Trial Reservoir provides. I look forward to broadening our horizons, reaching communities who have not heard of the Trial Reservoir or Isle. I look forward to collaborating with new categories of end-users, such as small rural systems who might benefit from utilizing the Trial Reservoir as a bridge to larger, more slow-moving funding opportunities. Most importantly, I am excited to see how the MLUU evolves to support the network of other fantastic organizations already in this space, particularly those working directly with disadvantaged communities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not all environmental equity challenges can be solved with technology alone. However, I hope that the MLUU can be part of a larger toolkit that disadvantaged communities can use to self-advocate in their fight for environmental justice.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span
