Just tried to call y'all. Pm in all afternoon. Say wher. b Brad Wurfel Communications tHrector, Michigan Department of Environmertal Quality

Gre Gt BOV> Hi Brad/Angela: | am writing a story for Friday’s paper about former Flint Mayor James Sharp, Jr. calling for federal investigations and more comprehensive outreach efforts to contact and test those who may have drank Flint water containing unsafe levels of lead. Sharp, who was Flint mayor from 1983 to 1987, also has another somewhat unique perspective on the issue of contaminated drinking water. He was a U.S. Marine stationed at Camp Lejeune in the 1950s, where it was later determined drinking water was contaminated with cancer-causing chemicals such as the dry cleaning fluid perchloroethylene. Sharp told the Free Press in an interview Wednesday that his daughter born on the base, who died at the age of two months, may have been a victim of the toxins. Sharp said after learning of the contamination in the 1980s, officials created a database and contacted him and thousands of others who may have drank the water. In 2012, President Obama signed federal legislation providing medical care to those who drank the Camp Lejeune water. xxxEND_PAGE:deq15_b358_1538_1539_1 Similar actions, along with investigations by the U.S. Justice Department and FBI, need to be taken in response to the situation in Flint, Sharp said. Just a couple of questions: What is the status of the “after action” report requested by the governor? Does the state believe investigations by the U.S. Justice Department or FBI would be helpful? What is the state’s response to Sharp’s suggestion of creating a database of everyone who might have been exposed to the water and attempting to contact and test them? Thanks, Paul Egan Detroit Free Press 517-372-8660 xxxEND_PAGE:deq15_b358_1538_1539_2

Importance: High Good morning, Attached is an updated report that includes the MDHHS logo. Because that’s been added in, | had to shift the format a bit so when updating this report going forward, please use this version. xxxEND_PAGE:dhhs02_b0599_2193_2198_4 002197 Additionally, I've attached updated talking points for Flint which include points regarding this report on the first page. Please review these and let me know if there are any concerns. Thank you, Angela

We can do---I talked with Angela. Angela- This one pager is unable to portray seasonality, but the talking points can---such as: "it is important to note that lead exposure can vary by season regardless of where it is located in the environment. For instance, the third quarters (July-September) have the highest EBL proportions for 2014 and 2015 compared to other seasons of the year." Showing the chart can help too. Feel free to contact me---| know this is a difficult one for risk communication and readability for the general population! Eden

Hi all: I was just reviewing the DEQ Flint website....I'm guessing it's probably making its way thru the process, but if not - we might want to also include the 211 free filter message in the highlighted section at the top of the website where it mentions getting your water tested... Jim (GCHD) is cc'd on this email & can probably fill in any info gaps... Just a thought...thanks! xxxEND_PAGE:dhhs02_b0721_2549_2549_1

Team, Here’s the planned release about Flint Water Task Force that is expected to be issued this afternoon. Please consider stakeholders you might want to notify. Dave Gov. Rick Snyder announces Flint Water Task Force to review state, federal and municipal actions, offer recommendations Experts in public health, water management, environmental protection to focus on steps to protect residents LANSING, Mich. — Gov. Rick Snyder today announced the creation of an independent advisory task force charged with reviewing actions regarding water use and testing in Flint and offer recommendations for future guidelines to protect the health and safety of all state residents. Task force members include experts in public health and medicine, water management, and environmental protection from both sides of the aisle, and will be co-chaired by Ken Sikkema of Public Sector Consultants and Chris Kolb, of the Michigan Environmental Council. Also serving will be Dr. Matthew Davis of the University of Michigan Health System, Eric Rothstein, of the Galardi Rothstein Group and Dr. Lawrence Reynolds of Mott Children’s Health Center in Flint. “Transitioning back to the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department-Great Lakes Water Authority is a good first step to protecting public health in Flint, but it’s not the last step,” Snyder said. “Bringing in outside experts to evaluate our actions and help monitor and advise on potential changes to law, procedures and practices will be key to continuing work on the comprehensive action plan and ensuring safe drinking water for all the residents in Flint and all of Michigan.” Snyder said the administration will fully cooperate with task force members, saying he wants an unbiased report focusing on steps taken in the past and recommendations that could improve practices to ensure all residents have access to safe, clean water. Ken Sikkema is a senior policy fellow at Public Sector Consultants, where he specializes in public finance, environment, and energy policy. Prior to joining the firm, Sikkema served in both the Michigan House and Senate, culminating with four years as Senate majority leader. He has also served as both an adjunct and visiting professor at Grand Valley State University. Chris Kolb is president of the Michigan Environmental Council, a statewide coalition of 70 environmental, public health and faith-based nonprofit groups. Before joining the MEC, Kolb represented Ann Arbor in the 1 xxxEND_PAGE:executiveofficeemails21_b0290_0607_0608_1 state House for six years and served six years on the Ann Arbor City Council. He has been president of the MEC for six years. Matthew Davis, M.D., M.A.P.P., is professor of pediatrics and internal medicine at the University of Michigan Health System and professor of public policy at the Gerald R. Ford School at the University of Michigan, having joined the faculty in 2000. Davis also is a professor of health management and policy at the School of Public Health. He previously served as the chief medical executive of the Michigan Department of Community Health/Department of Health and Human Services. Eric Rothstein is a national water issues consultant and principal at the Galardi Rothstein Group. He served as an independent advisor on the creation of the Great Lakes Water Authority. Rothstein also has served as Jefferson County, Alabama’s rate consultant and municipal adviser for litigation related to the county’s bankruptcy and issuance of $1.7 billion in sewer warrants and led strategic financial planning for the City of Atlanta’s Department of Watershed Management. He has more than 30 years of experience in water, wastewater and stormwater utility finance and rate-making assessments. Lawrence Reynolds, M.D., is a pediatrician in Flint who serves as president of the Mott Children’s Health Center. He received his medical degree from Howard University College of Medicine and has been in practice for 36 years. He has served as president of the Genesee County Medical Society and the Michigan Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics. He has been honored for his humanitarian and advocacy efforts on behalf of children from the Community Foundation of Greater Flint. Snyder has said reconnecting with the authority is a critical step to resolving water quality issues and addressing related health concerns. It will not immediately resolve the city’s problem with lead service lines or aging infrastructure. It will take time for pipes in Flint to become coated with the phosphate corrosion control. To best protect public health, state and local authorities will continue to carry out steps outlined on Oct. 2 ina comprehensive action plan, including continued testing, the use of faucet filters and providing residents with accurate information about steps to eliminate lead exposure. The Michigan Departments of Environmental Quality and Health and Human Services are continuing to provide free water filters, free lead testing through the state laboratory for Flint water customers, and hiring additional staff to conduct health exposure monitoring for lead in drinking water.

Hi Michelle, The baby still loaks extremely pixelated. Can we clean that up? If you can send me the design file, we can try to clean it up in our office. As for the ‘Action Flint template’ are you referring to the Taking Action on Flint Water graphic the Governor’s office has been using? That's not a template for anything so no, we won't be using if or our materials. Thariks,
