Rich, here's an update on the Flint blood lead testing. Latest totals are 39 peaple with elevated levels out of 1,436 tested, lf my math is right, that’s about 2.1 percent. Dave Murray Press Secretary | Executive Office of Governor Rick Snyder

Good morning, team. Here’s a new draft of the Flint Task Force response letter incorporating suggestions from Rich. Please let me know if there additional changes | should make, or if you think there are points that need to be included. Our goals is to have a letter that can be shared later today. Thank you! Dave Flint Water Advisory Task Force Members, Thank you for your correspondence on Dec. 7, and, most importantly, for your hard work to promote public health and protect our residents as we move forward. Your efforts are both respected and appreciated. As acknowledged in your letter, we have taken many steps to address the challenges in Flint as they relate to reducing lead exposure. | am pleased to see the progress since October, and recognize there is more work that must be done to ensure that this progress continues. At the state level, there has been a confluence of efforts between Michigan Departments of Environmental Quality and Health and Human Services to coordinate with the Genesee County Health Department, local schools, and our partners in the non-profit community. These partners are making progress, and we know we can always strive to improve practices and communication for continual improvement. You make a solid suggestion about establishing a person who is independent of any one of the involved state agencies or organizations to serve as the point person to coordinate the ongoing work. | am recommending that Harvey Hollins, director of the Office of Urban Initiatives, carry out this effort. Harvey is well-versed in the issue and the challenges faced by our cities and will be effective in this role. He will be assisted by senior members of our executive team to ensure you will have the continued support and cooperation that you need. We also have retained Chris DeWitt, a veteran communications specialist, to strengthen community outreach efforts to make sure residents have access to the information they need. | also support your suggestion of a dashboard to make information about our work and progress more accessible to the Flint community. These are critical measures that can be used as we look the challenges and progress in Flint, but also can be a part of efforts moving forward in other areas of our state. It’s important that people have confidence that we are working to address any problems and will take the necessary actions to improve interaction among city, state and federal agencies. We also will continue to work with the medical community to consider how we can work together on wraparound needs of children who might experience health problems. xxxEND_PAGE:executiveofficeemails20_b0580_1869_1870_1 People in Flint and across our state deserve safe, clean water. | want them to be confident that the water coming out of their tap is safe for their families. And | want them to trust that their government — at all levels — is working effectively to protect them. | thank you again for investing your time and expertise to this vitally important effort. Regards, xxxEND_PAGE:executiveofficeemails20_b0580_1869_1870_2

Good evening team, Here is a draft response to the task force letter that | think covers the needed ground and designates Harvey for the role suggested by the task force members. Please let me know if we are missing anything, or if there are points you want me to make, realizing that this letter will be distributed to the public. Thank you for your assistance.

Here is what Chris provided and | gave to Col. Etue who is funding the S25K.

12315.docx; Flint Blood Lead Level Summary Report Dec.pdf Team, DHHS is sending out this update on Flint blood lead testing this afternoon. Preliminary data indicates that 30 of 1,361 adults and children tested in Flint since October 1 had elevated blood lead levels, according to a report issued today by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services. We’ve worked with the folks there to make the release as reader friendly and people focused as possible, and also to show some historical context. The graph on the PDF is particularly effective, showing that levels were just as high in 2010. Please share any concerns you may have. Dave xxxEND_PAGE:executiveofficeemails20_b0161_0378_0378_1

The only change might be to add that DWSD terminating Flint from their system caused Flint to go to the river, Just saw Barnell at HOB, Wayne L. Workman Deputy State Treasurer Michigan Department of Treasury

Is this okay with you folks? I think Darnell is feeling unfairly maligned. Sent from my Verizon Wireless 4G LTE DROID wewenennee Forwarded message ----------

Hi Rich, These are two documents that I think are helpful addressing the questions about lead and Flint water overall, prepared by DEQ and DHHS. These were intended for internal use, so please ask our partners to not share them beyond the people on their teams making the decisions. xxxEND_PAGE:executiveofficeemails21_b1173_2954_2955_1 Please let me know if you need anything else.
