New Berlin, Wisconsin struck a new deal with Milwaukee to draw more water from Lake Michigan. New Berlin has had problems with high amounts of radium in their aquifers for the last several years. The new deal will cost the town $1.5 million dollars, and they will have to return used water back to the watershed through pipes. The DNR must still agree to the proposal.
