(CNN) Officials in Benton Harbor, Michigan, announced a state of emergency this week in a bid to ensure that lead pipes contaminating the city’s water supply are replaced more quickly.

Mayor Marcus Muhammad said he will be the presiding officer dealing with the emergency — in coordination with state and local leaders.
