lam scratching my head a bit over what LARA could do to assist in the Flint situation. | can think of a couple things, but they are pretty tangential: 1) MIOSHA: The bureau has a lab - | have reached out to Martha Yoder, the bureau director, to see if they have water testing capabilities. 2) BCC: We can do inspections (and permitting) upon request - like we tried to do in the Detroit demo project. Irv Poke, the bureau director there, has already talked to DEQ about some pipe inspection in Flint schools, but we may be able to go farther if there is a need. 3) MAE/PSC: Really can't think of anything, but they have lots of weird programs, so | have reached out to Val for suggestions. 4) Organization: The Flint situation could benefit from a "all hands on deck" working group like that we have done for the last several years with winter fuels. Mostly the same cast of characters with a few departmental additions and a switch in the impacted interest groups. If Dan (or someone else) wants to run lead, | could loan Karen Towne to either staff/organize the meetings/calls or train the department staff person on the template of how these work. She is pretty experienced in organizing this kind of thing. Will keep thinking, but that's all | can come up with on short notice.
