Lance Delaney, Citizens for Safe Water Around Badger
Lance Delaney got involved in Citizens for Safe Water Around Badger (CSWAB) eight years ago when Badger Army Ammunition Plant began supplying him with bottled water after unsafe levels of explosives were found in nearby groundwater. Lance learned more and then began to organize his rural neighborhood. He has served on this nonprofit’s board of directors since then.
