Half the homes in Jackson were built before 1969. JXN Water runs the city's system and says seasonal manganese can discolor tap water.
The State Board of Contractors handles licensing. In Jackson, the owner or a licensed contractor must get the plumbing permit before work starts.
On the coast, Gulfport draws from wells, and heavy Gulf storms test its drains.
