A water expert from Genesee County, Michigan, testified recently that he warned city officials in 2014 the water treatment plant in Flint wasn’t ready to produce clean water and had inexperienced employees, recommending the plant remain closed.
Two weeks before switching to the Flint River, the plant couldn’t produce clean water, testified John O’Brien, water director of Genesee County.
The facility’s chlorine room was under construction at the time, and O’Brien said its employees were trainees from Flint’s solid waste division who had previously been “riding shotgun” on garbage trucks.
