UIC18 Agenda Updated 11-30-17.pdf
Ken, this has not gone out yet and we are flexible in making necessary changes in future iterations. It currently has Administrator Pruitt's name on it as ( Invited) - which can be changed if wished.
We do need to post something online next week to advertise the meeting, but will not send a copy to our email list until the end of next week. After that, we can make changes online.

Reviewing and Critiquing Environmental Documents Workshop
| Instructor: John Veil, Veil Environmental, LLC I People who work in the environmental field are often asked to review reports, | regulatory proposals, and other documents. In some situations, the documents being j reviewed have little potential impact on the person or organization doing the review. J But in other situations, the documents may pose a threat or have a significant impact | on the reviewer. It is very important to conduct an orderly and careful review to I ensure that the author of the document did a reasonable job.
| In this 90-minute workshop, instructor John Veil draws on more than 27 years of j experience reviewing EPA and stateproposed regulations and reviewing dozens of I reports and other documents to share some guidelines on a sound approach to i conducting reviews. The workshop discusses the four main elements for conducting a j careful review. Those elements include: a) choosingappropriate data sources, b) j making proper assumptions, c) conducting suitable analyses, and d) presenting i results and conclusions that are justifiable and fair based on the material contained ! within the dociment. The workshop provides examples of how thee play an
inportant role in doing good research and setting good environmental policy.
One of the more talked-about EPA documents in recent years (the December 2016 j Hydraulic Fracturing Impacts on Drinking Water report) is used as the primary i example to diow weaknesses in data, assumptions, analyses, and
interpretation / communication of results. Other exarrples come from serving as an expert witness, following good practices when writing your own documents (Veil's : 2 015 report on produced water volumes and management practices is the example | used here), misleading media reporting, and doing peer review of scientific |i manuscripts.
