case management resources continue for families
I think it’s a great idea. I would like to do a joint announcement once we have an agreement with the
significant parties involved. I think this is the type of collaborative effort that can really make a difference for
the children in Flint going forward, especially on the preventive side.
Attached is updated Flint Action plan for week ending 11-13-15.
Highlights this week:
e GCHD completed nurse case management training
e Community awareness event held at Brownell School
e Congressional Call re: Ready to Feed Formula
e = Call with the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR)

Just got off phone with Jen Gray, our toxicologist who works with Linda.
e She concurs with me that DEQ does NOT KNOW WHICH ZIPCODE these tests came from!
e 15 ppb is the EPA actionable level
e 4PPBis the residential limit DEQ uses to state that drinking water is safe AFTER an abatement or clean-
up.
e MDHHS Tox has NOT endorsed this 4 ppb level, and has been working with DEQ regarding this issue.
This has implications for the exposure assessment protocol that they will be working on over the next
two days with DEQ.
e Right now, we cannot determine any other PH action other than turning of the water to all schools,
however ,| will have a confirmation of this by Linda this evening---
e ?? and it is unknown on the MDHHS side if we can turn water back on if the school screens as
nondetectable, because Linda needs to review the sampling method by DEQ.

“Experts are still working the data to determine exactly what it means, but the state takes lead seriously.” Should be
revised, AHthough continued analysis is being conducted, the MDHHS analysis is consistent with the focal finding. (777)
