Waukesha, Wisconsin looks for water from Lake Michigan. WSJ, City's Water Problems Test Great Lakes Agreement: Wisconsin City Wants to Tap Nearby Source, but Region's States Can Get in Its Way; Milwaukee Also Must Be Sold.
Wilmette is on the water and sells its excess to neighboring towns not so fortunate.
Remember this dispute when talk of ethanol comes up. It's a big water-waster. Actions have consequences--subsidizing non-economic activities distorts the wise use of resources.
As for Waukesha and its residents, they will have to make their case.
