state employees had clean water 8 months before everyone else in Flint

"While the City of Flint states that corrective actions are not necessary, [the department] is in the process of providing a water cooler on each occupied floor, positioned near the water fountain, so you can choose which water to drink," the department's facilities team wrote on January 7, 2015.

But the Department of Environmental Quality, which was notified about the budget department's decision to buy bottled water (and noted that "certain departments" seemed concerned about the water quality notice) was still insisting that the contaminated water was perfectly safe to drink.

"It's not like an eminent [sic] threat to public health," a briefing the department sent to Gov. Rick Snyder on February 1, 2015, reads in part. The DEQ went on to suggest that city officials were exaggerating the threat so they could get more money out of the state for infrastructure improvements.

It would take eight more months for the state to admit that the water in Flint really was unsafe. The budget department might have had clean drinking water provided by the state, but ordinary people in Flint did not.





they knew the water was bad


Look at them blame the city for saying the water was OK a year before they HAD to admit what they did.


it was not the city government claiming the water was drinkable for residents

As far as I can see there is plenty of blame to go around including the city, state and the EPA. A regional director of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) resigned Thursday in connection with the drinking water crisis in Flint, Michigan, and agency chief Gina McCarthy issued an emergency order directing state and city officials to take actions to protect public health.

Meanwhile corporations like Walmart, Pepsi and Coca Cola are getting water to the chillen while your precious gobblement flounders.

You deserve what you get.

How about blaming the mayor and the city council who approved transferring getting the drinking water from the Flint River to help their broke ass shit city???

Oh that's right, they're black. So we can't blame them. Go with the whitey Governor who had no say in it whatsoever!!!

Must be RACISTTT!!!!!!!!!!

Libs attack line getting old yet?

[SmarterthanYou]

did you not think that the elitist rulers of their kingdom wouldn't provide for themselves first? of course not, must defend democrats at all costs.

So far, the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality has processed 853 samples of water drawn from Flint homes between Sept. 29 and Jan. 15. Test results obtained by the Free Press show that about 8% off the samples exceeded 15 parts per billion for lead, the level at which federal rules require water system operators to add more corrosion controls. The state has distributed more than 23,000 test kits, though it's unclear how many will be returned for analysis.
