Hi Quin Thanks for your email. Mandy and I will arrive in Bonn on the 12th. I'd welcome a call with Eric in advance. Please work with Robin and Alex to find a good time this week for us to connect. Best, Brittany

Good morning Mandy and Brittany:
It's my understanding that you will be joining the U.S. delegation for the upcoming COP-23 meetings in Bonn, Germany. EEI and many different member companies routinely have attended these international forums as credentialed participants going back to the 1992 UNCED session. In the course of monitoring these proceedings, we have developed a pretty robust sense of the ever-evolving international policy and political landscape, and that perspective may have some contextual value for you. Let me know if you would be interested in chatting, particularly with our primary point of contact in Bonn, Eric Holdsworth, who is EEI's Senior Director for Climate Programs and is copied on this note.
The EEI delegation will be in Bonn from November 9-16. As part of our standard preparations, we routinely meet with key staff from the White House and various federal agencies that are attending the meetings, to discuss both major policy objectives for the United States and how the electric power sector can be helpful to the U.S. team during these sessions. We already have met with primary State Department contacts, which resulted in a wide-ranging, mutually beneficial discussion that helped paint a better picture for everyone of potential opportunities and challenges on the ground in Bonn.
Once in Bonn, we are organizing a dinner to welcome the Administration team, most likely

ED 001523 00007557-00001
early during the second week. We hope both of you can attend and will send you a formal invitation once details are finalized.
Given your busy schedules, we would be happy to come to EPA or to convene via teleconference if you are interested in visiting about the Bonn meetings. Thanks in advance for your consideration, and I look forward to hearing from you.
Best, Quin
