"Lead in Elgin's Drinking Water" coverage is a once a special podcast that start in May 2022. Over the last few months, a variety of different professionals -- former city staff, current city staff, and a pediatric nurse -- have come on the podcast to talk about this very serious issue.

Today's episode is PART TWO of a very long (and really informational) interview with Eric Weiss, who is the current City of Elgin Water Director. As you can imagine, there was a lot of ground covered:

• Clarifying some of the wonky, concerning language in the Annual Water Quality Report
• Clarifying how Elgin residents may qualify for the city's Lead Service Line Replacement program (hint: there isn't an application)
• And much, much more . . . 
• Including more silly talk about Speedo swimsuits
