Ms. Shaw: I hope you are doing well and I am sure it is very busy in the first few days of the Administration. My name is Louis Baer and I am the Senior Director & Counsel, Government Affairs for the Portland Cement Association, which represents U.S. cement manufacturers. We work closely with the Office of Air & Radiation through the Energy Star Program and EPA Smart Sectors Staff in the Office of Policy. I am reaching out because I would like to request a meeting with you and political staff at EPA's Air Office and potentially the Administrator's Office and it was suggested to me to reach out to you directly. We would like to meet with you and other political staff in EPA to discuss our advocacy and deregulatory priorities for the cement industry and how we can partner with EPA on President Trump's priorities. We would love the opportunity to meet with you and the political staff during the first week of February if there is availability because we have member leaders in town.. Please feel free to reply or call me at either my cell or office below. Thank you very much and I look forward to hearing from you. Best, Louis Louis A.
