• Downriver residents call for Wyandotte to switch drinking water source due to pollution near Detroit River intake (thenewsherald.com) — A recent Downriver environmental town hall held in Trenton focused on concerns about Wyandotte's drinking water intake being downstream from long‑polluted BASF property on the Detroit River.
