The federal government needs to have the US Attorney and US Marshall take the water records of Flint. This is not a difficult task. The old records are workable. While mishandled and the paper old, the information is probably very clear.
Compiling the records in Flint in a way that is discernable to know what the pipelines are composed of and the structure of the pipeline system is not at all difficult.
There is no WILL by the Snyder Administration to carry out the required TASKS. A couple of experienced hydrologists could easily understand the documents along with a US Army Corp member that is able to work with old records and their format from the decades they were produced. This is not impossible. It is probably rather simple. The USA is dealing with a primadonna in Lansing who is now scared to death he is facing real criminal activity for the idiot he is.
I am certified to conduct Environmental Assessment. Anyone who carries out these vital assessments knows there is a historical search that has to be conducted with records that go all the way back to the beginnings of the country or in this case the State of Michigan. If for whatever reason the federal government can't get it done, I volunteer.
There is a very good chance the company that built the water pipe system for Flint is still around and/or it's own(s) retired. This is not an impossible task. The US Army Corp might simply start their reconstruction of records by talking to people. You know, folks that actually served the people in the Mayor and Council from the good ole days. Like I said, "Fun."
Detroit (AP) — The latest on the Flint water crisis (click here) (all times local):
9:05 p.m.
The Obama administration has denied an appeal by Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder for additional aid for Flint through a disaster declaration, saying the program isn't appropriate for the city's drinking water crisis.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency recently approved an emergency declaration, which could bring up to $5 million in direct funding to Flint. Federal officials denied declaring a disaster, which could have brought millions more. On Friday, FEMA turned down the state's appeal.
A disaster declaration is mainly for natural disasters.
