Quick recap on the interactions this week from the MDHHS side on the Flint water issue. Today the City of Flint issued the attached “Lead Advisory” for residents to be aware of lead levels in drinking water and issued suggestions from the Genesee County Health Department as to what residents could do to reduce risk. These include: -- flushing cold-water pipes by running water for approximately 5 minutes, --using only water from the cold-water tap for drinking, cooking and making baby formula --installing a water filter that is NSF-certified for lead removal. We worked with the Genesee County Health Department throughout the week to get them in a more pro-active mode to provide this guidance publicly and to encourage citizens to have the City test their water if they were concerned about the quality of water at their home. The health department also issued this fact sheet ; on Thursday providing additional information on the issue. MDHHS epidemiologists continue to review the “data” provided by a Hurley hospital physician that showed an increase in lead activity following the change in water supply. While we continue to review this data, we have stated publicly that Hurley conducted their analysis in a much different way than we do at the department. Hurley used two partial years of data, MDHHS looked at five comprehensive years and saw no increase outside the normal seasonal increases. The Hurley review was also a much smaller sample than MDHHS data as ours includes all hospital systems in Flint as well as outside laboratories. We have also provide the attached data chart that outlines if the elevated blood lead levels were being driven by a change in water, we would have seen the elevated levels remain high after the change in water source. We have also communicated that for WIC beneficiaries in Flint with documentation of unsanitary water, they may be able to receive ready to feed formula and have encouraged families to contact WIC to see if they are eligible for this formula. SNAP beneficiaries are able to purchase bottled water with their SNAP funds. Talking points from MDHHS are attached as well. Thank you, G xxxEND_PAGE:deq24_b095_0257_0257_1

Can | reprint Nancy’s email?

Our Public Health staff followed up a bit more on the lead question. Below is their email update to me.

( think this information is very helpful. It will not answer the main question about the quality of the water (DEQ is working on that through Brad | believe), and the color and smell of the present water, but it does get us to the answers to the less subjective issues. Frankly, the only way the issues will be totally resolved is when the KWA comes on line and the water is perceived to be cleaner and healthier. | am somewhat surprised that the leadership in Flint has not responded better to the community questions, which don’t seem unreasonable at all. Seems like Harvey has a better network into some of the neighborhoods than the city does. The KWA PR department definitely needs to do some outreach or they're headed down the same road as DWSD. Do you know if they go out on a regular basis to the community and talk about the rates, costs, etc.?

Importance: High All, Attached is a memo and water rate summary answering several of the questions raised by the Flint pastors. Please let me know if you have any questions. Wayne Wayne L. Workman Deputy State Treasurer Michigan Department of Treasury xxxEND_PAGE:treasury01_b25_3630_3729_010

I'm frustrated by the water issue in Flint. | really don't think people are getting the benefit of the doubt. Now they are concerned and rightfully so about the lead level studies they are receiving from the DEQ samples. Can you take a moment out of your impossible schedule to personally take a look at this? These folks are scared and worried about the health impacts and they are basically getting blown off by us (as a state we're just not sympathizing with their plight). xxxEND_PAGE:executiveofficeemails21_b0949_2413_2413_1
