As you know, EPA has issued a direct final rule with respect to the effective date and compliance timeline issue and we understand that additional changes are expected to be released soon. A meeting would allow us to brief you on how a few other common sense reforms would ease the regulatory burden on U.S. manufacturers in our industries and free up resources for growth and job creation. If it works for you, we suggest Wednesday, June 7th at 3:00pm. Please don't hesitate to contact Cindy or me with any questions you have. Sincerely, Joe Joseph L. O'Donnell Senior Manager, Government and Public Affairs International Wood Products Association 4214 King Street 17cv1906 Sierra Club v.
