Rock:
I visited Region 9 on Tuesday and Region 10 today. I will be visiting Region 9, at least, every other month. After my first set of visits, I intend to peel away and visit each State's respective DEQ, Dept of Ag, etc... I would gladly meet with you as well. These visits will be without any regional personnel to get an clear and unveiled look at the relationship between the State and EPA in hopes of improving the overall relationship and processes. I sense that California may be more in step with R9 than other states in other regions.
I would be happy to set a call in the near future. My contact is below.

Hi Rock -
Thank you for your email. I informed my colleague visiting the regions, Ken Wagner, of your offer to provide a tour visit. Eve added Ken to this email chain in the event his schedule has changed and can fit in a tour. Appreciate the updated information on the UIC issue, I'll review and let you know if we have questions.
Best,
Brittany

Brittany--
Thanks so much for taking the time to talk by phone with us concerning the injection well issue here in California. Last week, we had the pleasure of meeting with Mr. Pruitt while we were in DC. We did not get deep into the details of our issue, but did discuss the visit of EPA personnel to CA that you mentioned. CIPA would welcome the opportunity to meet with those tasked with visiting Region 9, either a short meeting in SF or if they desire, we can take them on a tour of some stakeholder sites. Please let us know when the trip will occur and we look forward to getting the opportunity to meet with them.
Please find attached both the updated memo on the UIC issue and the updated status matrix that we discussed on our call. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
Best,
