Millan--
Hope you are back safely. I just returned from WY and saw your email. Below please find some information from the head of our government affairs group on our Metrop operation in Australia where we would love to have the Administrator visit. Look forward to discussing. Many thanks.

Ray,
We've been advised that EPA Administrator Pruitt will be in Australia in early September. Pruitt is having dinner at the US Embassy in Canberra on Tuesday, September 5, with a group of CEOs including Peabody AUS President George S.
If Pruitt is interested, we can easily make arrangements for the Administrator to visit one of our Australia operations. We have a mine called Metropolitan (Metrop) located about an hour south from downtown Sydney. There are hourly flights from Canberra to Sydney that take about 45 minutes. Metrop is an underground operation located in close proximity to houses and other community activity. It is a great story of how a mining operation works closely with local stakeholders to support jobs but also demonstrate environmental stewardship. We could do the entire trip (starting from Sydney airport) in 4-5 hours. We can provide additional info if they are interested but this would be a great opportunity for Trump Admin to show support for coal internationally and also a way to connect Australia and US on coal policy.
