Byron:
I attended a roundtable with Samantha Dravis last week and brought up the issue of exempting phosphate and potash mines from the CERCLA Financial Assurance for Hard Rock Mining Rule. She indicated that you were working hard on the issue. Also, I believe you have been in communication with my colleague here at The Fertilizer Institute, Andy O'Ha re, regarding the issue.
I know you are swamped and have extremely limited time, but I was hoping that Andy and I could grab a cup of coffee and chat about the progress and next steps that EPA is considering. We would limit the discussion to 10 minutes to respect your time. I really appreciate all your hard work. I have not been this excited about a President in my entire career. We really have the opportunity to make meaningful change....
Please let me know if you may have some time to quickly catch up.
Sincerely, Ed Thomas.
