To: From: Sent: Subject: Jackson, RyanOackson.ryan@epa.gov] David Crane Wed 5/31/2017 8:54:38 PM 6.7-8 Meeting Request for Domestic Energy Producers Aiiiance Ryan: I hope that your week is going well. A small group of Domestic Energy Producers Alliance guys are coming in town next week with a focus on regulatory issues. Roger Kelly from Continental will be heading up the issue discussion. Pete Regan and Blu are coming as well though Blu might be running a separate schedule. I'm sure you guys will hook up either way on your own. I am hoping you might be able to plug me in to the right staff at the EPA for the appropriate issues for purposes of scheduling a meeting? It would be a big help. We'll come in prepared. Following is little background Roger prepared on each subject. Any help or guidance would be much appreciated Thanks Ryan and please let me know if I can provide any additional information or if I can be of help in any way. David David Crane 1. Oil and Gas Effluent Limitation Guidelines and Standards The final rule entitled "Effluent Limitations Guidelines and Standards for the Oil and Gas Extraction Point Source Category" published in the Federal Register on June 28, 2016 largely ignored input from industry and should be rescinded. A categorical prohibition on the practices of the unconventional oil and gas industry limits innovation and imposes unnecessary restrictions to the industry. 2. Quad Oa EPA Methane Rule. This rule follows the original Quad O rule passed in the 2012-2013 timeframe and is primarily directed at methane as a green house gas/pollutant. Passed under the NSPS (New Source Performance Standard) review authority of the Clean Air Act. 3. Social Cost of Carbon (including Methane) The March 28th Executive Order on "Promoting Energy Independence and Economic Growth " directed agencies against consideration of climate change or green house gases in regulatory development or other energy considerations. This directive affects the Quad Oa rule among others. 17cv1906 Sierra Club v. EPA - 6/22 Production ED 001523 00003757-00001 4. RCRA Waste Exemption The EPA has committed (2016 Obama EPA)to revisiting this matter and the environs surely expect some serious changes. This issue was handled in the states through state review. Need to see where they are, if anywhere, on this. Need to make sure staff isn't cooking something up.
