Sorry for that cryptic lack of info. Attached is our primer. We're basically seeking EPA to conclude that the state programs to be capable of managing oil and gas production wastes and that it does not need to develop federal regulations or state guidelines under Subtitle D. If EPA acts in 2017, it will need to review/reaffirm in 3 years, which means two bites at the apple from this Administration. I'm just not clear as to whether EPA has enough of a record to make this determination in 2017 and seeking your guidance on this matter.

We're having this big meeting with our members on RCRA Subtitle D next week and before they throw around anything public or formal letters or asks, I wanted to chat informally. Would you be free sometime this afternoon? Alternatively, I can swing by Monday if that helps. Just let me know.
