Whistle-Blower Laws?
According to the Washington Post, the DC Water and Sewer Authority (WASA) fired "a high-ranking manager last year who had repeatedly warned top agency officials and federal authorities of lead contamination in the city's tap water before tests last summer revealed that the lead exceeded federal limits in thousands of homes."
Its nice to know that WASA is looking out for us. Apparently Seema S. Bhat was fired for repeatedly disregarding the chain of command.
