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. xxxEND_PAGE:dhhs02_b1031_3658_3661_3 003661 xxxEND_PAGE:dhhs02_b1031_3658_3661_4
