Milwaukee-area hospital uses bottled water due to minerals in water

“While the appearance of minerals in water is not uncommon in new buildings as systems are turned on, we took proactive conservative steps to assure the safety of our patients, visitors and staff,” the hospital said.

The water has since been found to be safe.
