Michael, Attached is a final draft article for the Lansing District, DEQ Legislative Dashboard Newsletter. This article from ODWMA covers the startup of the City of Flint WTP and the involvement and efforts of DEQ staff. Liane, please let us know if you have any comments or concerns before this is moved forward for publication. Also, it was initially suggested to have a separate article from OWMRP regarding work with the City of Flint to enter into an ACO that addresses reconstruction of the storage lagoons for the WTP’s refuse lime, elimination of a wastewater discharge, and correction of unauthorized solid waste disposal at the site. I’m not sure what the status is regarding such an article but Mike Prysby and | can assist Jim as needed. Let us know if you have any questions or need anything else. Stephen Busch, P.E.

xxxEND_PAGE:deq11_b136_0828_0829_1 it works for me, although if there's any chance you could swap out the picture of the 2 men in street clothes carrying the drurn out for the one of the man in protective gear sampling the drum, it might be a little better, since we specifically mentioned using orotective gear!

Per Jim Sygo, every DEQ office is expected to produce a district newsletter on a quarterly basis. The newsletter is intended to be e-mailed to district legislators and possibly other external stakeholders and District staff. | have volunteered to coordinate and edit the Lansing District's newsletter since | have an article that | have proposed for inclusion from OWMRP. | am asking the District Supervisors to select a project/site, at least one per division/office (or solicit input from staff to select a high-profile or controversial site or project) and write a brief summary on the subject. See the attached newsletter for suggested format. The articles should be written for a non-technical reader, since that is the intended audience. | will share the draft newsletter with the authors and supervisors before sending it up to the front office for review. Any write-ups you can provide by March 18 for a Spring 2013 newsletter would be greatly appreciated. We can discuss the newsletter at the DS meeting on March 11.

The 78 inch diameter intake pipe will lay one mile out into Lake Huron, with a capacity of 85 million gallons per day (MGD). As this project impacts numerous communities within a large region, it has required a multijurisdictional approach by the DEQ, Office of Drinking Water and Municipal Assistance, Lansing and Saginaw Bay District Offices, and coordination with the communities, their staff, and engineering consultants. While the intake facility is under construction, Lansing District staff are also working with the Genesee County Drain Commission on the design of a new 36 (MGD) water treatment plant which will utilize this intake as its source. Lansing District staff are also in discussions with the City of Flint for the potential use of the KWA intake as a source for its existing water treatment plant. Completion of the full project is anticipated by 2016. Additional components of the KWA system include raw water pumping facilities, raw water transmission pipelines, and a 620 million gallon raw water reservoir. For questions or additional information regarding this project, please contact Mr. Michael Prysby, P.E., Lansing District Office, 517-335-6122. xxxEND_PAGE:deq16_b4_0688_0891_151

We should go ahead and plan on a trip to the water treatment plant and the power plant for the 29", So we need to determine what staff will be going, what times for the visits and the locations to meet the director. All of which we need to put together an give to the director who will be driving separately to an earlier meeting. We should meet this week once we know who is going and a street address for each visit.
