American' Chemistry Council March 11, 2025 The Honorable Lee Zeldin Administrator, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20004 Re: Request for a Meeting with American Chemistry Council Membership Dear Administrator Zeldin: On behalf of the American Chemistry Council (ACC), I would like to request a meeting so that members of our Board of Directors and I can discuss how the chemical industry contributes to each pillar of the EPA's Powering the Great American Comeback Initiative and how we can help with the success of that initiative, the industry's engagement on issues currently before the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and upcoming opportunities. ACC represents more than 190 companies engaged in all aspects of the business of chemistry, from the largest corporations to the smallest, and everything in between. EPA is the chemical industry's primary regulator, and for years we have been privileged to work with the Agency as it has worked to advance its mission, including the implementation of the 2016 amendments to the Toxic Substances Control Act. Our industry also regularly engages with the Agency on policies ranging from air quality to facility security. As a component of membership, all ACC members implement Responsible Care, the chemical industry's world-class environmental, health, safety and security performance initiative. For more than 35 years, Responsible Care has enabled ACC members to build a reputation for strong leadership, driving safety and performance, and developing and implementing solutions to challenges. Our members are the people and companies creating the products that are improving the world by making it healthier, safer and more productive. I am grateful for the opportunity to continue working with the Agency under your leadership, and we would welcome the opportunity to meet with you regarding chemistry's critical link to new domestic manufacturing. I look forward to hearing from you and Ryan Jackson, ACC's Vice President of Federal Affairs, will follow up with your team. Please also feel free to contact him at (202) 679-1469 or ry .n j icanchem r 1 if you have any questions.
