Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions! Sydney Hupp Office of the Administrator- Scheduling 202.816.1659 From: Schwartz, Jerry [mailto Jerry Schwartz@afandpa.org] Sent: Friday, April 7, 2017 12:44 PM To: Dewey, Amy <Dewey.Amy@epa.gov>; Graham, Amy <graham.amy@epa.gov> Cc: Hupp, Sydney <hupp.sydney@epa.gov>; Hale, Michelle <hale.michelle@epa.gov> Subject: Two AF&PA Meeting Requests Dear Amy Dewey, As we discussed, AF&PA has requested two meetings with EPA. The first is a request for AF&PA's President and CEO and several of our member CEOs to meet with Administrator Pruitt on May 4th (see attached meeting request). To assist with scheduling that meeting, I have copied Sydney Hupp and Michelle Hale, as you suggested. I appreciate any help you can provide on scheduling this meeting. The second is request for AF&PA staff to meet with Mandy Gunasekara and other key EPA staff to discuss our comments filed in response to the Department of Commerce Request for Information and to prepare for the meeting with Administrator Pruitt (see meeting request below). It is my understanding that Ms. Gunasekara has already facilitated the scheduling of that meeting. Thanks again for all your help. Dear Amy Graham, 17cv1906 Sierra Club v. EPA ED_001523B_00007127-00003 Thank you for your recent introductory message. We look forward to working with you on these and other issues. Jerry Schwartz From: Noe, Paul Sent: Tuesday, April 4, 2017 5:33 PM To: Mandy Gunasekara (Gimasek.ara.Mandy@Epa.gov) <Gunasekara.Mandy@Epa.gov> Cc: Bhandaram, Sundara <Sundara Bhandaram@afandpa.org>; Samantha Dravis (Dravis.Samantha@Epa.gov) <Dravis.Samantha@Epa.gov>; Sarah Greenwait (Greenwait.Sarah@Epa.gov) <Greenwalt.Sarah@Epa.gov>; George Sugiyama (Sugiyama.George@Epa.gov) <Sugiyama.George@Epa.gov>; Ryan Jackson (Jackson.Ryan@Epa.gov) <Jackson.Ryan@Epa.gov> Subject: Meeting Request Dear Ms. Gunasekara: We are writing to request a meeting with you and your colleagues to discuss a number of ERA regulations and permit requirements that we have identified as adversely affecting our member's manufacturing operations. On March 31, AF&PA filed comments in response to the Department of Commerce's Request for Information pursuant to the President's January 24 directive, and our comments discuss problems and proposed solutions related to 77 distinct rules and permit issues impeding U.S. manufacturing. Most of the comments focus on EPA issues. AF&PA President and CEO Donna Harman has requested a meeting with Administrator Pruitt on behalf of several of our CEOs on May 4th, and we believe that meeting with you and other key EPA staff in advance of that meeting would enable the Administrator to be well-briefed and ensure the meeting is as productive as possible. As the issues we would like to discuss span a number of EPA offices, we have copied several of your colleagues on this message. We will facilitate your busy schedule, but the dates of April 18-21 look good for us. Top priority issues we would like to discuss include: 17cv1906 Sierra Club v. EPA ED_001523B_00007127-00004 1. Carbon Neutrality of Biomass 2. Air Permit Gridlock 3. Human Health Water Quality Criteria 4. EPA Procurement Guidelines for Paper and Paper Products Containing Recovered Materials/Specifications, Labels and Standards AF&PA represents U.S. manufacturers of pulp, paper, packaging, tissue and wood products. Our industry employs 900,000 hard working men and women, and our mills often are located in small, rural communities that need good-paying jobs. The U.S. forest products industry is very heavily regulated, but at the same time also must operate efficiently in a fiercely competitive global market. We look forward to hearing from you soon and to discussing these important issues. Thank you for your consideration. Best regards, Paul Noe 17cv1906 Sierra Club v. EPA ED_001523B_00007127-00005
