We still do not have a Sunday evening speaker. I know it is a bit late, but would you mind forwarding the attached request to Scott Pruitt to see if he might be available? There are a lot of things going on at EPA that SIBF's C-level members would be interesting in hearing about. Thank you!

One of SIBF's most important programs, the Washington Briefing provides members with up-to-the-minute information from key Executive Branch officials, Members of Congress, diplomats, and other business and political leaders. In the past, our group has received private briefings from The White House, the State Department and CIA. We have been privileged to hear from many distinguished speakers including the Vice President of the United States, Cabinet Members, numerous Senators and Representatives, and policy and media experts. I am writing to inquire about your willingness to be our opening keynote speaker for our 2017 Washington Briefing on Sunday night May 7 at 6:30p.m. at the Willard Intercontinental DC. Our group would be most interested in hearing about the EPA's current initiatives. We also would hope to save some time for Q & A in this closed to the media dinner session. I have enclosed an organization overview as well as a current attendee list. As brief background, the Society of International Business Fellows (SIBF) is a non-profit business association founded in 1981. With our affiliated networks in Central Eurasia, the Middle East and Southeast Asia, we have over 1200 individuals as members, predominantly from small- and medium-sized enterprises as well as some major multinational companies and global professional services firms. The common thread among our members is that they are all involved in some way with international business. Thank you for your gracious consideration and attention to this request. You may have someone from your staff contact me at 404.525.0473 or shannon.williams@sibf.org to discuss this event. Respectfully, Shannon G. Williams Director of Programs Society of International Business Fellows 225 I.'eachtree Street NIE - Suite 1410 I.'eachtree Center - South Tower - Atlanta, Georgia 30303 404 525 7423 www.sibf.org 17cv1906 Sierra Club v.
