RE: October Flint Lab Invoice

The following 3 drinking water lab account codes have been set up to be paid by DEQ from the $1M GF/GP. Samples processed under the regular City of Flint account number are sent to the city for payment. Are there any (water) sampling activities that the City performs that would not be covered under this supplemental funding?

FW: October Flint Lab Invoice

Importance: High Not sure who the correct person to ask is about this. The Flint Action Plan was announced on October 2, 2075. lt was at this point that the DEQ announced that it would test Flint homeowner’s samples for free for lead and copper. Based on that | would say that any sarnples submitted by the city of Flint on or after October 2™ should be waid for by the DEQ using the supplemental. Does this sound right to everyone? xxxEND_PAGE:deq15_b692_2407_2411_4 George L.

FW: Lead Sampling Issues

Thought folks might find these documents informative: Attached to this message are a couple of documents that were prepared over a decade ago that discuss excessive stagnation and sample invalidation under the LCR. They were prepared in response to questions from the Washington Post and other news media about invalidation of some samples collected in the Lansing Board of Water Light service area. The first document is an internal memo that identifies language in the federal preamble to and in EPA guidance for the LCR that discuss the need to collect samples from homes that have experienced “typical residential water use during the day before the compliance sample is collected.” The second document is a report prepared to explain why we “invalidated” samples for excessive stagnation in Lansing. It was in the aftermath of this event when EPA eliminated the ability of state programs to invalidate sample results based on excessive stagnation that ed the Michigan Public Water Supply Program to develop a recommendation that communities advise residents participating in their compliance monitoring to flush the designated sampling tap 6 to 8 hours before sample collection (the night before in most cases) to ensure that this tap was not experiencing excessive periods of stagnation. We did not want subsequent regulatory requirements to be imposed based on water quality information that did not accurately reflect the regulatory intent. This briefing report also xxxEND_PAGE:deq04_b214_3461_3462_1 discusses the fact that the regulatory monitoring scheme was not intended to represent human intake, but was based upon sampling a statistically significant number of residences containing leaded plumbing materials as a measure of successful water treatment efficacy. xxxEND_PAGE:deq04_b214_3461_3462_2

RE: Drinking Water Staff for FY17

Date: Monday, October 26, 2015 10:38:00 AM I’d like to include George in this discussion also. We’re still trying to coordinate with Genesee County Health Department, as they could be the primary agency collecting samples. | believe we are waiting on a proposal from the county. | think we should also discuss the possibility that George could use help in the form of an asistant.
