michiganradio | “The preliminary draft report should not have been released outside
the agency,” Hedman wrote to then-Flint Mayor Dayne Walling after the
ACLU’s investigative reporter, Curt Guyette, asked city officials about
it. The report was a “preliminary draft” she wrote, adding, “it would be
premature to draw any conclusions based on that draft.”
The draft report details hazardous waste levels of lead in Lee Anne Walters’ home.
In it, Del Toral raises serious red flags about the lack of corrosion
control treatment, something that’s required under federal rules.
These
days, Del Toral says he hasn’t been keeping up with all the national
news headlines about Flint. Since October, he’s been busy working with a
water task force to help resolve Flint’s water problems.
Del
Toral was first alerted to Flint’s water problems last spring, when Lee
Anne Walters called the EPA to complain about high levels of lead in her
tap water and warn officials that her child had been diagnosed with
lead poisoning.
