MOTION:BRING BACK IN 1 WEEK(motion made by BENSON; all present members in favor, 3-0)

Contract No. 3076693 - DPD ALERT MESSAGING EMERGENCY - The referenced contract was entered into and granted by the CPO, as noted, to provide Removal and Disposal Services of Boats in the Detroit River. In 2013 the City of Detroit agreed to a consent judgment accepted by U.S. Federal District Court Jude Sean Cox returning control of DWSD back to the City of Detroit. Part of that consent agreement was that in all cases the City of Detroit would use its best efforts to keep the Detroit River free from hazardous waste and other pollutants. BSEED has identified fluid leaking from an abandoned boat into the Detroit River which appears admittedly without testing, to be hazardous. The owner of the illegal nonpermitted boatyard where the boat rests is not cooperative. The City of Detroit does not have boat towing capacity. The potential for harm is real and BSEED believes an emergency response is required. (BROUGHT BACK AS DIRECTED ON 9/09/24)
