Any chance we could meet next Monday? Andy From: Andy Ehrlich Sent: Thursday, May 04, 2017 9:36 AM To: 'dravis.samantha@epa.gov'; 'gunasekara.mandy@epa.gov' Subject: Meeting request - RFS Samantha and Mandy, good morning. I am contacting you to request a meeting with you to discuss the Renewable Fuel Standard. I represent Darling Ingredients Inc., the world's largest rendering and recycling company with about 4,000 employees in the U.S. alone, spread across approximately 140 locations in 40 different states. Their headquarters are in Texas and they have assets in Canada and on five continents. One of their senior executives is a Board Member of the National Biodiesel Board and, as you know, that association has a key federal affairs priority to protecting the RFS. Darling is a joint owner of the largest renewable diesel plant in the country, which is a unique asset which we'd like to speak with you about. The Diamond Green Diesel handout is attached. A few months ago, we met with Paul Argyropoulos and a few other career policy types, but it would be great to meet with the people in charge of the new Administration's policy. Mike Rath, Senior Vice President of the company, is in town on May 15th (all day) and on May 16 (before 11:30 am) Do you have a 30-minute time slot available for us? And, thank you in advance for your attention to this request. I hope we get a chance to connect. Andy Andrew L. Ehrlich Partner 17cv1906 Sierra Club v.
