We will be pleased to have a call with you and RIVM. If you agree that the agenda call is to exchange on the call of evidence process, and some high level questions regarding fluoropolymers and their applications, and myself could make ourselves available for a call next week. If you want to go through all the questions you sent this morning, as previously indicated, | am afraid that we need to postpone our call until after the holiday season early 2021. As you know FPG continues to be active in supporting downstream users and encouraging them to submit data. | became a point of contact for many of our downstream users to guide them in the process and making them aware of the questionnaires. We are currently still collecting data to reply to your questions including the ones listed in your email below. As already emphasized in our communication with you and the authorities in charge of the call of evidence, the tasks required to fulfill these questionnaires in a such short period of time are particularly challenging. We are entering in the Holiday season, and we are still in a Covid period. In this challenging time, the allocation of our resources in such a short period is tricky. Therefore, let us know what you and RIVM have in mind for our call agenda. Based on your answer, [XE and | will provide you with dates.

The meeting we had (including Wood and Exponent) on 13" November provided a useful introduction. | would like to propose that this meeting should go into a bit more detail, to get an aggregated overview, at industry association level, of the PFAS/fluoropolymer manufacturing sector in Europe. Key discussion topics | would like to suggest are below, but please feel free to suggest additional items if you think we have missed anything relevant: * Number of direct employees in the sector in EEA * Economic value of the sector in EEA * Number of companies/manufacturing sites in EEA Annual production tonnage and trends in EEA (what is the approximate split by product? e.g. do 3 substances represent 80% total?) 0 What are the PFAS precursors/monomers and what is their tonnage? What are the (non-PFAS) additives/processing aids used in fluoropolymer production and what is their tonnage? * Import tonnage of fluoropolymers into EEA, and trends * Alternatives to fluoropolymers -- technical and economic feasibility * Emissions data kg/year * Waste arising from production process: o what type of substance(s) are in the waste? o total annual tonnage/volume? oO quantity as % of product produced (i.e. for 1 tonne PFAS substance, how much waste?) * How you handle and dispose of the waste O Transportation and packaging? 0 Disposal method (e.g. incineration, landfill)? Please could you inform me if you have any availability before the New Year to have a conference call with RIVM and us at RPA? 2966027 Please note - | recognise that you are responsible for the Fluoropolymers section of Plastics Europe. As you may know, we lave BEE also had contact from hat she intends to provide a response to the questionnaire. | would like to clarify if you will be discussing fluoropolymers only, and therefore please could you advise if it would make sense to have a separate meeting with to discuss other PFAS substances?
