Summary

Commissioner Collins asked staff to begin a preliminary review of statements and activities attributed to Amy Brownell of the Department of Public Health’s environmental division regarding representations made to developers and prospective homebuyers at the Hunters Point Naval Shipyard.

Commissioner Collins formally requested that staff commence a preliminary review of statements and activities attributed to Amy Brownell, an employee in the Department of Public Health's environmental division, related to representations made at the Hunters Point Naval Shipyard. Collins said a seven-page newspaper article published three days earlier contained statements and activities he considered pertinent and asked staff to determine whether grounds exist to open an official investigation.

"I ask that the staff commence and complete as soon as possible a preliminary review to determine if there are grounds upon which to begin an official investigation of any violations of law," Collins said, identifying the employee and the subject matter and asking staff to act promptly. The request was entered on the record for future follow-up by staff.

The Commission did not vote on investigative matters at the meeting; the request directs staff to review the published material and report back on whether formal investigation is warranted.
