Dear Ms. Gunasekara:
On behalf of the National Mining Association (NMA), I would like to invite you to address a broad section of the mining industry at our upcoming meeting of NMA's Environment Committee. NMA represents the producers of most of the nation's coal, metals, industrial and agricultural minerals; the manufacturers of mining and mineral processing machinery, equipment and supplies; and other firms serving the mining industry. NMA's Environment Committee consists of those environmental professionals whose job it is to understand and guide compliance with the many federal, state and local environmental regulations governing mining activities.
The upcoming meeting is an informal setting that gives our industry representatives a chance to meet with key agency staff that work on their priority issues. Notably, NMA has a subcommittee of member companies devoted to air quality issues, including the Clean Power Plan, New Source Review, Regional Haze, NAAQS and modeling, to name a few.
The meeting will be held on Oct. 18 and 19, 2018, at the Renaissance Washington, D.C. Downtown Hotel located at 999 Ninth Street, N.W., Washington, DC. We would welcome an opportunity for you to meet with our members for approximately 60 minutes during either day. Our meeting will begin on Oct. 18 at 11 a.m. and end the following day by 1 p.m. We are currently flexible on speaker times and will work to accommodate your schedule.
