Thanks. | was aware of this information, but had not seen the formal communication from DWSD.
The City of Flint has already issued the following response publically:
The DWSD Question:
As a result of the concerns raised, several community members have suggested that the City reconnect to the
Detroit Water and Sewer Department (DWSD). DWSD has advised that they would be willing to allow such a
reconnection without a hook-up fee. However, the City would be obligated to pay a fixed monthly charge of
$846,700 plus the $14.92/Mcf cost of water itself and agree to a long term arrangement. The City’s analysis of the
DWSD proposal concludes that the City’s cost would increase by more than $12 million per year at the proposed
rates, and could increase even more as proposed rates are subject to change after July 1, 2015. This increase in
costs would not be in the best interests of the City or its water users, as the City is committed to assuring safety
and improving water quality by following its current plan, and reconnecting to DWSD would likely require
deferment of existing capital improvements or an additional increase in rates.

| have confirmed with our Analyst that the next round of samples is scheduled to be collected in November. They are
