Sent: Mon, Aug 31, 2015 5:55:41 PM Dear Mr. Woodson: Thank you for your call on Friday. In follow-up to your inquiry on U.S. EPA lead experts, I had a conversation with Dr. Darren Lytle, who is the Acting Chief of the Treatment Technology Evaluation Branch in the Water Supply and Water Resources Division within EPA’s Office of Research and Development. Scientists within Dr. Lytle’s branch have expertise in drinking water treatment including corrosion control to address lead contamination. We passed along Dr. Lytle’s information to both MDEQ and Flint’s Mayor, Dayne Walling, for consideration to work with Flint’s Technical Advisory Committee. You mentioned that you wanted to provide the Flint City Council with this information since Mayor Walling has not shared EPA’s assistance offer with the Council. I have left a voicemail message with Councilwoman Monica Galloway regarding your inquiry since it is critical that the Council work with the City and the State to discuss next steps for the Flint Water system. Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions. Best wishes, Heather xxxEND_PAGE:executiveofficeemails20_b0759_2211_2213_2 Heather A.
