Thanks. Mike Prysby just came to see me about an interview he gave Ron Fonger and one he’s going to do with a lacal T¥ station in Flint later today. What | discussed with him was helping to tamp-dewn oublic concern by providing three messages of street-level perspective on the situation. i. This notice does not represent any Imminent health threat from the water in Flint. Folks can relax. 2. The notice is an exarnple of the state’s role (protecting public water supplies} at work. Public water supplies are tasted regularly for all kinds of things. Same things (e.coli or glardia} are an immediate concern. This one is more a long-terrn cancern, and we are working with the city to address it, 3. What's happening in Hint is not unheard of. it happens sometimes with systerns that draw from surface water, as Flint is doing now.

Thought you might wart to see this as well. Nis Bhen.
