Neal,
Thank you for circling back here. I will be the POC that day and would be glad to set aside some time this week to go over logistics. May we do Tuesday? We are traveling tomorrow and will not be back until late.
Look forward to discussing.

Hi Millan,
We are very much looking forward to the Administrator providing remarks as part of the TXOGA Lone Star Energy Forum program on Thursday, October 19th at 6:30pm at The Woodlands Resort. We're just two weeks away and I wanted to circle back to cover logistics. We have him on our agenda from 6:30pm to 7:00pm in the Grand Ballroom. All attendees will be seated at round tables and salads will be served immediately following his remarks.
I understand he will need to be out the door right at 7pm but what time will he arrive on the property? Will he have a security detail with him and do we need to provide any additional information leading up to the event? Please share a day-of contact and let me know if you have any questions. Happy to set up a call to discuss further if you would like.
Best Regards,
Neal Carlton Director of Membership Texas Oil & Gas Association Main: 512-478-6631 Direct: 512-617-8897 Mobile: 806-535-8808

Absolutely. We would be happy to push to 6:30PM and appreciate the more private setting.

Hi Millan,
We have adjusted our program slightly to fit in the Administrator at 6pm on Thursday, October 19th at The Woodlands Resort and Conference Center. We have a reception starting at 5:30pm in the Grand Ballroom Foyer and our Distinguished Service Awards dinner (honoring Concho CEO Tim Leach) at 6:30pm in the Grand Ballroom. Regarding format, our preference is 15-20 minutes of remarks with 5-10 min of Q&A. Given the 6pm timing, his remarks would be via podium mic or handheld mic in the Foyer to the reception attendees. Depending on where his 8:40pm flight is departing, would it be possible to push the Administrator's remarks to 6:30pm so we can have everyone in the Grand Ballroom and seated and we'll have him out the door by 7pm? We'll certainly make 6pm work but I

wanted to see if there is any flexibility so we can have everyone in a more private setting.

Neal - 6PM on Thursday, October 19th works 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.
At your convenience, kindly let us know what the format will be and when would be the best time for him to arrive.
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 20th would be ideal.
Thank you,

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.
