Susan,

I know you have additional questions about the Pioneer story and what I said to Peggy Savage.

When a member of the media contacts us, we fill out a media contact form to try to capture the questions as asked and our response. We answer the questions as asked.

Subject: RE: Media Contact Molalla Pioneer

Date and Time Contacted: 5/21/15 11:27am

Publication/Station: Molalla Pioneer

Reporter’s Name and Phone Number: Peggy Savage 503-829-2301

Topic Discussed: Peggy asked if the City of Molalla contact DEQ about the release. I replied that I received a call from the city (PW director) on May 11th at 4:30pm which was within 24 hours of discovery of the release. The NPDES Permit requires that we are notified within 24 hours. I also explained that we received a written report on Friday, May 15th that is also required by the permit. This report documents the cause of the release and response to it as much as is known by day 5. She asked about volume and next steps and I said we are still investigating.

Reporter’s Deadline: tomorrow am 5/21 am
