e —CLPPP Nurse has maintained contact with GCHD nurses regarding child with EBLL, per our Nursing protocol. Per the GCHD Nurse, the child’s lead level has continued to decrease, to 20 pg/dl. e Received calls from Rep. Neely’s office regarding an upcoming Health Fair, asking about CLPPP participation or provision of materials (may be on December 15" at a Methodist church?). Suggested that GCHD staff may be their best contact; shared with GCHD that they may receive a call. xxxEND_PAGE:dhhs03_b0405_1532_1532_1

Hi all-- E talked to Sob to confirm the information | had shared about the Hurley lab results. itis a little more nuanced than | had explained, forwarding Bol‘s explanation, FY.

Follow Up Flag: Follow up Flag Status: Flagged UPDATE: Here is a link to the VA Tech study re city of Flint drinking water There are some presentation links in the lower right. It appears that the researchers have completed testing of a lot of water samples and the results are significantly different than the city and DEQ data. It also appears that they've held public meetings in Flint, resulting in the concerns about the safety of the Flint water that have arisen in the last few days. I'm talking with Genesee County and the DEQ this afternoon about our outreach efforts and may know more after that call. Linda D. Dykema, PhD.

Geralyn, Vm net aware of a specific policy or process, but the Division of Environmental Health has at times recommended that the Director issue a “health advisory” to alert the public of a potential hazard. in each case, we have based this recommendation on data regarding levels of chemical contaminants in environmental media, wild game, or sport caught fish. We've also twice recommended that the Director make a finding of imrninent and substantial hazard when the available information suggests that a chemical storage facility presented 4 fire or explosive risk, When the issue of lead in city of Flint drinking water first came to my attention, | contacted the DEO Drinking Water Program and then provided a summary of my conversation with DEQ staff (please see the attached e- mail from July 23, 2015}. i've recently reviewed a written response drafted by DEG staff to Congressman Dan Kildee that suggests none of the information summarized in my e-mail has changed. We're continuing to follow the situation and have discussed with the DEG some options for a public outreach effort. We're having a call tornorrow with the DEQ and Genesee county staff to further axplore the options. Let me know if! can provide any further information. Linda ®. Dykema, PAD.

I spoke with Steve Busch, Lansing District Office manager, DEQ Office of Drinking Water & Municipal Assistance. The city of Flint recently conducted drinking water testing throughout the city with special attention to those areas known to have old service lines. The city water supply is in compliance with the lead rule, which means that 90% of the water samples were less than the lead action level of 15 ppb. DEQ will, however, recommend that Flint further “optimize” their corrosion control methods. The DEQ has not seen a change in the city's compliance with the lead tule since switching to the Flint River source. Some water samples had lead levels above 15 ppb. Homeowners receive their sampling results and those with elevated levels are provided with information regarding how to minimize their exposure, including replacement of water supply lines. The city pays for line replacement from the main to the property boundary. The property owner is responsible for some portion of the cost if the line replaced is on their property. To Steve's knowledge, there is no program in Flint to assist homeowners with limited financial means. Regarding the home with high drinking water lead levels: some years ago the supply line that serves the neighborhood was replaced, but somehow this house was not connected to the new line, such that the family's xxxEND_PAGE:dhhs02_b0904_3051_3052_1 003052 drinking writer supply Wis cominug fem the ek eurréeed fead pipe.
