Environmental Protection Agency William Jefferson Clinton Building 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W. Mail Code 1101A Washington, DC 20460 Dear Mr. Kelly: On behalf of the National Mining Association (NMA), I would like to invite you to address a broad section of the mining industry at our upcoming meeting of NMA's Environment Committee. NMA represents the producers of most of the nation's coal, metals, industrial and agricultural minerals; the manufacturers of mining and mineral processing machinery, equipment and supplies; and other firms serving the mining industry. NMA's Environment Committee consists of those environmental professionals whose job it is to understand and guide compliance with the many federal, state and local environmental regulations governing mining activities. The meeting is an informal setting that gives our industry representatives a chance to meet with key agency staff that work on their priority issues. Notably, NMA has a subcommittee of member companies devoted to solid waste issues, including policies, regulations, and guidance related to Superfund cleanups. Our members are very interested in learning more about Administrator Pruitt's priorities for the Superfund program, as well as your work this summer in leading the Superfund Task Force in developing recommendations on opportunities to accelerate cleanup and reuse of Superfund cleanups. The meeting will be held on Oct. 16 and 17, 2017, at the Renaissance Washington, D C. Downtown Hotel located at 999 Ninth Street, N.W., Washington, DC. We would welcome an opportunity for you to meet with our members for 60 minutes during either day. We currently have open speaker slots as follows: N a tio n a l Mmirsg A s s o c ia tio n 101.
