Hello, It is my contention that you have grossly embellished about the water quality in Genesee County; particularly Flint. The response submitted below is prior to the stark discovery that federal laws were violated. It's plain to see that funds have been misappropriated resulting in harm to residents and their families. In the correspondence, below, you have minimized the problem and diverted the blame to individual residents. Considering the public broadcast about our water equality, the culprits are not the residents, but the officials that are designated to ensure the quality of water. Thank you, Sheila

As a reminder this is on top of the corrosion inhibitor already present in the water purchased from DWSD. Stephen Busch, P.E.

Updated lead and copper sampling instructions for residents/customers. We have modified our instructions to address concerns raised. We have not vetted this through any district staff to see if they have any other recommendations. This could be done concurrently with EPA’s review. xxxEND_PAGE:deq15_b768_2732_2732_1
