The Correspondence series (0.7 linear feet) is arranged chronologically and spans the years 2004 to 2012. The early correspondence documents initial conversation between Dow Chemical Company, government officials, and other local environmental organizations discussing the chemicals founding within the Saginaw and Tittabawassee River as well as early efforts to clean the river. Later correspondence, from 2007 and beyond, covers the requests made by the city of Midland and members of the Lone Tree Council for reports and statistics of the actions taken by Dow Chemical Company. Some of the correspondence comes directly from Michelle Hurd Riddick, an active member of the Lone Tree Council during the mid to late 2000s.

The Legal Exhibits (0.5 linear feet) series contains collected materials from the City of Midland as well as Miller, Canfield, Paddock, and Stone PLC to present against the Dow Chemical Company. These records gather packets of finalized reports, studies, and other relevant documentation regarding the dioxin contamination of the Tittabawassee River.
