Follow Up Flag: Flag for follow up _ Flag Status: Flagged Hello Steve and Mike. As you are aware, the City has undergone extensive upgrades to our Water Treatment Plant and it's associated facilities. Our intentions and efforts have been to operate our facility as the primary drinking water source for the City of Flint. Through consultation with your office and our engineering firm we've developed a system of redundant electrical systems, treatment processes and adequate finished water storage to negate the need for a signed back up agreement with DWSD due to their termination of our contract. Upon inspection of these facilities would you convey your concurrence that there is no regulatory requirement for us to sign a back up agreement with DWSD. Thank you Daugherty Johnson Utilities Administrator City of Flint | 3 | ; j xxxEND_PAGE:executiveofficeemails21_b1138_2882_2884_1 Piy sby, Mike (DEQ) ;
