<M “n>; Murray, David (GOV) Importance: High Chad, Just walked out of a meeting where this was discussed (among other things}, so let rne correct myself DEQ cannot do forgiveness of existing loans (thet would require EPA approval). We CAN do loan forgiveness at some level on NEW loans, and we are discussing this possibility with the City of Flint. Ata meeting between Director Wyant and the new mayor yesterday, and again al our reguiar weekly rneeting with Flint officials today, this issue was on the agenda, and DEQ is oper to it We've asked ine city for some documentation that is key to this conversation ~ a reliability study, a needs survey, and asset management olan, and the city’s capital improvement Glan. Bottom line, however, is that the Governor's plan calls for long-term acdress of ihe lead issue thal includes removal of lead service lines, and we're already in discussions with city officiais about how to fulfil that commitrnentt. b Brad Wurfel Cornmunications Director, Michigan Department of Environmental Quality wurfelb @ michigan. gov cei xxxEND_PAGE:deq15_b352_1514_1516_2

Dave & Brad, Congressman Kildee was on Off The Record today and in the ¢¥ Snyder to commit to establishing a fund to pay for the health care needs of some 7,000 Flint children who may have been exposed to lead in the water. The congressman said he wants to see it include tracking these children’s health and nutrition to ensure they’re getting the right care to help mitigate the long-term effect of lead in their bloodstream. Is this something DEQ or the governor are considering? Also, something directly for Brad: Kildee said he wants to see DEQ let Flint use a federally-funded revolving loan fund to replace private service lines in the city through forgivable loans. Is that being considered? I’m writing about this today. Really need a response by 4 p.m., if possible. -Chad Chad Livengood Capitol Reporter The Detroit News Lansing bureau: (517) 371-3660 xxxEND_PAGE:deq15_b352_1514_1516_3
