From: Malcolm Burnley Ex. 6 Sent: Wednesday, October T;TDT7T2:3DTlVr To: Press <Press@epa.gov> Subject: POLITICO Magazine: Tar Creek, Oklahoma Hi, I'm a contributing writer with POLITICO magazine. I'm requesting an interview with EPA administrator Scott Pruitt for an upcoming story. My deadline is Tuesday, October 10. The story will be focusing on the EPA Superfund site at Tar Creek, Oklahoma, and the narrative would greatly benefit from Mr. Pruitt's input. There have been many suggestions coming from within the EPA and the White House that Tar Creek has been identified as an example of how Mr. Pruitt will approach Superfund sites across the country. In a January 2017 story for Bloomberg BNA, a few days before Mr. Pruitt was confirmed, a White House spokesperson cited a buyout program that took place at Tar Creek as an example of Pruitt's guiding philosophy: "national standards; neighborhood solutions." In August, senior advisor Kel Kelly was touring the site. Sierra Club v. EPA 18cv3472 NDCA Tier 13 ED 002061 00010230-00001 Given the prominence that Tar Creek -- an EPA Superfund site since the 1980s -- has recently taken on, I'd like to discuss Mr. Pruitt's views on the buyout program and overall job the EPA has done there. Please let me know who I can reach out to directly within the Administrator's office regarding my request. Thank you, Malcolm Burnley !....Ex. 6....1 Philadelphia Malcolm Burnley Freelance writing / researcher Philadelphia Sierra Club v. EPA 18cv3472 NDCA Tier 13 ED 002061 00010230-00002
