Federal judge to no longer oversee Detroit water department

"U.S. District Judge John Feikens, who turns 93 next week and has been ill recently, began oversight of the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department 33 years ago as part of a pollution lawsuit settlement.
Feikens' departure is the third major leadership loss for the department in recent months at a time when state regulators have found major pollution violations in the Detroit River caused by the city's wastewater treatment plant."
