RE: Confirmation experiments.

My view an this is that it does not provide any scientific information relative to the individual residents. fH annpears to be a qualitative process te ceSrnonsirate the water is carrasive. We now know that. WE should ha more concerned with indivicuai follow ups rather than demanstrations. 1 xxxEND_PAGE:deq14_b0696_2159_2160_1

FW: Flint Main Break and Valve replacement

Utility Repairs Dort Hwy Oct 18 2014.pdf FYI. The City of Flint is doing some major repair work this weekend as indicated in the attached information. Customers in the affected area are being notified by the City that they may temporarily lose service and that when service is restored should boil their water until the City can verify that the line was properly disinfected through bacteria monitoring results. This protocol follows normal construction repair standards. To be clear this advisory is not based on any confirmed contamination, but a standard precautionary measure as part of normal construction and repair work. Stephen Busch, P.E.

. : _ ODWMA Response - Flint KWA-DWSD Report

- of Tucker and Report. pdf ; “a Importance: oe ~ High Director Wyant, and Deputy Director Sygo, wy F Addendums to ODWMA comments A: reorder yesterday cepardiag the City of Flint water system and comments on the reports from Tucker, Young, Jackson, Tull, Inc. ONT can be found below in red.: Additional comments are as follows: With regards to culatony authority for DEQ to allow or PareREn the breakup of water utilities, and State vs. ‘local ; decisions about cost effectiveness, it is important to note that when the DEQ permitted the water withdrawal for KWA . (permit 2009-001) part of the decision making process (copy attached), included reasonable use and the balance of - Economic Development, Social Development, arid Environmental Protection. As part of.the public participation process general comments were received (pages 6 & 7) regarding impacts on DWSD and rates to remaining customers. The DEpartneits response to those comments stated: ! ° “The DEQ is specifically precluded from using part 327 to “...diminish or create any anisiing authority of municipalities to require paRons to connect to municipal water supply systems as authorized by law” (MCL 324. SE7z6): , ; ; “It is appropriately an issue for water service contract negotiations between the regional water system and its quetomers. To do aihenwiae invites unwanted Intervention of the state into local decision making.” ODWMA cannot on its own assess an actual dollar value to any regional benefit for the City of of Flint ‘to remain a full customer.of DWSD, but the following should be included in any. additional analysis: - The cost estimates provided in the TYJT report show a cost CITTSKENIEE. between full KWA and full Dw participation of $172 million over 30 years. a - The formation of KWA would itself be considered one of tlie largest ee drinking water authorities i in the ’ State in terms of capacity, and as such any regional benefits provided by DWSD nay only be marginal i in comparison. Finally, we have additional questions for TYJT regarding the various DWSD supply options and the’tonsiderations they. . made in the operations of the Flint WTP. These SONSIRENADGNS will have an impact on the cost estimates for DWSD options. We look forward to further discussion of these comments during our meetings tomorrow, and ‘lease lét us know the , have any addRiana| questions for us between now and then. f° ‘Lansing and Jackson District Supervisor Office of Drinking Water and a Municipal Assistance’. : ; woe ht . : MDEQ . pS so =i a xxxEND_PAGE:deq28_b181_0940_0943_1 Vv > ? 517-643-2314 - ; ot
