Bill Summary
A bill to amend 1976 PA 390, entitled"Emergency management act,"(MCL 30.401 to 30.421) by adding section 10a.
AI Summary
This bill amends Michigan's Emergency Management Act to require county drain, public works, or water resources commissioners to notify the county emergency management coordinator within 12 hours if dangerous levels of E. coli or sewage are detected in local waters. Upon receiving such notification, the emergency management coordinator must issue a "brown alert" within 12 hours to county residents through the Wireless Emergency Alerts system. The alert must specify the location of the contamination and the associated health risks. The bill defines a "dangerous level" as an amount of E. coli or sewage exceeding federal maximum contaminant levels established in the U.S. Code. By mandating rapid communication about water contamination, the bill aims to protect public health by ensuring residents are quickly informed about potential water-related hazards that could pose risks to their health and safety.
