I can send her a notice that I will get back to her sometime tomorrow before noon? I think we should include a comment regarding the samples as well.

Subject: sewage spill into bear creek
Hi Jennifer,
I read the notice on the city website about the effluent that flowed into Bear Creek from the city’s wastewater treatment plant.
Also, I talked with Tiffany Yelton-Bram at DEQ about it this morning. She said you notified her and met the permit requirement for 24-hour reporting and that the spill is still under investigation.
Do you know yet how much effluent escaped into the creek, and for how long it had been flowing before it was discovered?
If you have anything else you’d like to add to what was mentioned on the website, that would be a good thing. The more the city is open about such accidents, the more likely people are to appreciate that accidents happen.
If you could give me a call or just return my email message, I’d appreciate it.
I go to press tomorrow (Friday) this week – we have an early deadline because of the 3-day weekend.
Thanks
Peggy
