She will be the main POC for this event. If you'd like to organize a call with her to discuss the below questions, I'm sure she'd be more than happy to do so.

Apologies for the length of this email, but I have tried to put together some comprehensive information for you, as well as ask a few questions. My first question is - who will be our main contact for the event? Will we work with you, an event coordinator, or his chief of staff possibly? My second - what is your preferred communication protocol? Do you prefer me as your main contact or going through other SIGMA staff that will be overseeing various aspects?

Regarding announcement o Can we get the Administrator's media kit? High resolution headshot, official bio, etc. O For any announcements, publications, or signage, does the Administrator require approval beforehand and, if so, who do we contact for that approval? o I have attached a draft email announcement with information taken from the official EPA website. Regarding onsite in Chicago O Who will be the Administrator's main handler? o What security details will we need to be aware of? o Does the Administrator need a greenroom and, if so, what are the requirements? Regarding SIGMA and NATSO Boards o I have attached the Board of Directors for both SIGMA and NATSO to this email. O SIGMA and NATSO boards would like to host a small reception at 2pm on Wednesday November 8th in order for the board members to meet and thank the Administrator. We can plan this to his preference either formal (with a podium for him to make remarks) or informal (no podium, less formal meet and greet, time with both boards in a quieter environment). o If a staffer would like to speak with our CEO, Ryan McNutt, about the event, I am happy to schedule a phone call. His direct contact information is also above. Regarding the Administrator's remarks o How much time would the Administrator like allotted for his address to the members? o Our producer, JoAnna Miller, and I would like to schedule a call with the person who will be 17cv1906 Sierra Club v. EPA ED_001523B_00001924-00003 putting together the Administrator's event profile in order to go over the technical details for exactly what he can expect in the room the day of his address. o Does the Administrator have an official/preferred introduction to be used for the address? o Is the Administrator open to a few minutes of Q&A from the membership after his address? If there is anything you are missing or need from me, please don't hesitate to ask - we are very excited that the Administrator will be able to join us in Chicago and want to make the event as smooth as possible. Thank you and I look forward to working with you! Best, Liz.

We are able to confirm Wed, Nov 8 with an approximate presentation time of 3:20PM based on our previous conversation. If we built in conversations with the Boards, we could do that prior to his remarks.

EPA ED_001523B_00001924-00007 Hi Hayley, Thanks so much for reaching out today! I just talked with Mike and he so happy that things seem to be working out to have the Administrator at our meeting in Chicago. This is a bit of the information that we just chatted about this morning. Both dates do still work for us (the 8th and 10th), but we do have a preference to the 8th as it would be great to have A dministrator Pruitt open our Annual Conference. Also, the earlier date would coincide meetings for our Board of Directors as well as the Board of Directors for NATSO, the National A ssociation of Truck Stop Owners, and I know that both boards would be privileged to meet the A dministrator and be able to pass along their thanks for his efforts in keeping the fuel supply flowing with the waivers issued during Hurricanes Harvey and Irma. If there is other information I can provide, please don't hesitate to ask. I am traveling for meetings next week, so the best way to reach me is on my cell at 314.616.3907. I'm happy to discuss any details or concerns and work out a way to have the Administrator at our event -1 know our membership would be thrilled to hear him speak! Thank you so much, Best, Liz.

Is that still the case? Please let me know and we look forward to getting him to Chicago for this event!
