EPA Event Request Form.docx
Millan,
Thank you for taking the time to speak to me today. Please see the attached event form.
The lunch will be held at Tony Cheng's at 619 H Street in Chinatown (on the 3rd floor and there is no elevator). The event usually begins at 12:00 noon, with lunch being served. Usually, the speaker arrives at about 11:55 a.m., is seated at the head table, and has lunch before the address. Mr. Pruitt will be introduced at about 12:45 - 50 by our D.C. Chapter President, Doug Cox, of Gibson Dunn. Mr. Pruitt's address should last about 15-20 minutes; the address is usually followed by informal questions from the audience. This lunch is a more casual lunch than we usually do and the venue does not have microphones for the audience. The event ends no later than 1:30 p.m.
We will begin promotion for this event, as it is coming up in the next couple of weeks. Leonard Leo described the topic to me as "Reflections on the EPA and the Administration's Regulatory Agenda."
As discussed, we will not advertise this event directly to press, but sometimes they do hear about it and ask to come. We will let all press know that this event is not open to press and is off the record.
Please let me know what guest/staff Mr. Pruitt plans to bring to the lunch, just so we can be sure to reserve a seat. Please also let me know if any of Mr. Pruitt's guests should be seated at the head table with him. I ask this only because many times our speakers will bring a staffer who does not sit at the head table with them; he is more than welcome to have one guest seated with him at the head table.
If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact me; I can be reached by email or at 202- 810- 8652. On the day of the event, I will be the contact person and can be reached at 571-217-7094, which is my cell.
Best,
Juli
