Hey Mandy -- I hope you're having a good week. I wanted to know if you'd like to chat briefly before Tuesday's meeting to see if there's anything I can help out with beforehand? Also, I just wanted to provide some details on what our group plans to say. Really, two areas. 1) on the 2018 RVOs, we wanted to provide you with suggestions on volume numbers in the upcoming rule and give justification for how we arrived at those numbers. 2) on Point of Obligation we'll stick to high level talking points on why we think any adjustment would be detrimental.
We'll have some fuels experts with us to get into the weeds on specifics and answer any technical questions if necessary. Our lobbyists (almost all of whom you know already) will be there as well. Anyway, let me know if I can get you anything in advance, and we'll look forward to seeing you Tuesday at 11at EPA. I'll also shoot over a list of attendees to Valerie soon once we have that finalized. Thanks, Mandy. Will

Thank you, Valerie!
Can we plan on Tuesday (4/25) at 11am?
Also, would Mandy be available to come to API (1220 L St. NW) to talk with our group? If not, we'd be happy to come to EPA. There would be about 20 folks total.
Thanks again, Will

Hi Valerie - I hope you had a great weekend. Just checking in on Mandy's availability for next week to meet with our API Fuels Group to discuss the 2018 RVOs for the RFS and the Point of Obligation issue. We're obviously happy to work around her schedule, but to get the ball rolling next Tuesday morning (4/25), Wednesday afternoon (4/26), or Thursday morning (4/27) work best on our end. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you! Will

Hi Valerie - I just wanted to circle back on the emails below to see if we could confirm a date, time, and location with Mandy? We'd be delighted to host her here at API (1220 L St. NW) with our Fuels Group on Tuesday morning (4/25), Wednesday afternoon (4/26), or Thursday morning (4/27). We're also happy to come to EPA if that's better. There will be roughly 20 folks total in our group. Thank you for your consideration. Will Hupman

Hey Mandy - How's life at EPA so far? You're not busy at all, right?!? Haha. I'm sure it's been a whirlwind. I can only imagine...
I wanted to reach out on the 2018 RVOs for the RFS. We have our group of fuels experts in town in a few weeks, and I wanted to see if you'd be willing to join us at API to discuss potential volume numbers (and our justifications for recommendations)? Also, how those volumes may relate to the Point of Obligation issue. Would you potentially have any availability on Tuesday morning (4/25), Wednesday afternoon (4/26), or Thursday morning (4/27) to chat with us? We'll obviously work around your schedule if there's a better time during those days. And, if it's more convenient for us to come to you at EPA, we're happy to do that as well. The group should be roughly 20 folks total.
Please let me know if I can provide anything else on this in the interim. Appreciate your consideration, and hope to see you soon! Will
