Neal - 6PM on Thursday, October 19thworks perfectly for us. We are confirmed. He will have to be on a flight out that night at 8:40PM but that should be plenty of time.
I want to apologize for the nature of this process to date. I also would like to thank you for your kindness and patience. We truly appreciate you working with the schedule to determine a way to include us.

Look forward to working with you and again, thank you so much.

Mr. Carlton,
Wonderful to hear from you. Yes, we are looking at this from every angle to find a way to make this work. Would 6PM on Thursday, the 19th be feasible for your agenda?
Thank you so very much for your consideration and for your willingness to work with us on this.

Maddy and Millan,

I understand there's still a possibility the Administrator may be able to join us at our event on Friday, October 20th. Is this accurate?
As you likely know, Texas has worked very closely with the EPA during the ongoing storm and aftermath. The help of the EPA has been instrumental to many of our member companies and their operations. The timing of our event and the attendance of the Administrator would be a perfect time to express our appreciation.
As a reminder, we do still have some availability on our agenda during our dinner the evening of Thursday, October 19th but Friday, October 20thwould be ideal.
Thank you,

Hi Maddy,
We are two months away from our event. Do you have a timeline for when a decision will be made regarding the Administrator's participation? We would like to finalize our agenda in the next day or two.

Hi Maddy
Attached is the completed speaking request form as well as the formal invitation letter. I noted on the event form that a significant portion of TXOGA's Board will be attending this event and I have attached our current Board roster.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions and thank you for your consideration.

TreXpOreGsAenitsintgheevsetarytef'ascoeldt eosf toailnadndlarggaesstintcraluddeinagssuopcsitaretioanm, midstream and downstream. AH sectors would benefit greatly from Administrator Pruitt being able to attend and are hopeful it aligns with his schedule. Our nation's largest operators will be in attendance along with smaller regional and Texas companies. It is really a good mix and is an important gathering worthy of the Administrator's time.
We are needing to finalize our agenda for printing purposes. Do you think it possible we could get a decision this week?
This is the largest of our annual events and really the best one to attend. Should the Administrator need a different venue, we can certainly arrange one to fit his schedule and build attendance associated with it but this one is the most prominent.
Thanks for your consideration.
