RE: Question on MPSC appointment & Flint stuff

Hello Jacob, rn not aware that an announcement is imminent for the replacement on the Public Service Cornmission. Here is our statement regarding Flint. ’m attaching a fact sheet. The health and welfare of Flint residents is a top priority, and we’re committed to working closely with Mayor Weaver and the Genesee County Commission on a coordinated response to health and infrastructure issues. After the County Commission’s vote today, the Michigan State Police’s Emergency Management and Homeland Security Division is working with the Genesee County Emergency Management Coordinator to gather information about the resources needed for a Governor’s declaration. The state police have been closely engaged in the situation since the beginning, meeting with both county and city leaders to guide them through state and federal laws regarding the emergency management process. Due to the uniqueness of this situation, we have to look at all possible options to help Flint residents. But prior to a formal declaration, we are recognizing this as an emergency and are working with city and county leaders to coordinate efforts, streamline communication and tap all available resources at the state’s control.

Question on MPSC appointment & Flint stuff

Good afternoon (and Happy New Year!), xxxEND_PAGE:executiveofficeemails20_b1385_3544_3545_1 I just wanted to check with you guys on what the timeline is for replacing for Mr. Quackenbush on the MPSC. Are we going to hear an announcement soon or is it going to be closer to when he leaves March 31? Also, in case we need to do something on this today -- what's this about the Governor considering declaring a state of emergency in Flint? What needs to happen or what information needs to be obtained to make that a done deal? Let me know, thank you. Jacob Kanclerz xxxEND_PAGE:executiveofficeemails20_b1385_3544_3545_2

RE: Flint suit comments

Hi there Jacob — Sure- and to be clear, we still haven’t been served yet so can’t comment on specific details. What would say is that we’re focused on moving forward and ensuring public health and clean, safe drinking water. The governor has outlined a detailed multiple step action plan for both immediate, mid and long term. He has also appointed a task force doing a very important job of reviewing all past actions. They are a bipartisan group of people of the highest integrity, experts in their fields and widely respected who are going to do a very thorough, objective review. Just let me know if anything more needed at all. This is for comment on behalf of Governor and rest of our administration too. Thanks and best, SW

Fwd: RELEASE: Progress Michigan: MDEQ’s Wyant Needs to Go

Sara and Dave, Not Responsive | Would you guys mind providing a response to this and also the Dems calling for Wyant to step down yesterday? Gov. Snyder holds the power to make this decision, so I'd like to know if he would consider doing this as the state evaluates how it handled the Flint water situation. Thank you.
