Mr. Valentine,
I do have a report and flow map that provides information on how we are attempting to mitigate our Zinc exceedance
issues. I will summit that to you all asap. I wasn't sure if you would like for me to email what I have or mail it in to you all.
We were shut down last week and are on a skeleton crew right now, so I am trying to manage as much as I can between
home and work. Please let me know. We really need to get stormwater under control and are trying our best.
Thank you,

As a follow up to my inspection dated November 7, 2019, we've found that we don't have a record you ever submitted
the Zinc contamination source investigation requested in our inspection report dated November 11, 2019. We
requested that the report be sent within 90 days and we have past beyond the time provided. If the investigation is not
complete, please provide us with any documentation you have to date outlining the efforts you have made to this point
to provide that information. If you have any questions, please call. I hope you and yours are well, stay safe.
