Don, Pursuant to our teleconference today, I am making a re quest on behalf of the following entities for an extension of time to respond to EPA's "Questionnaire for Canned and Preserved Seafood Processi ng Facilities in Certain Locations of Alaska": 1. Maruha/Nichiro, c/o Alyeska Seafoods, Seattle, WA Maruha/Nichiro, c/o Westward Seafoods, Seattle, WA Maruha/Nichiro, c/o Peter Pan Seafoods, Seattle, WA Maruha/Nichiro, c/o Premier Pacific Seafoods, Seat tle, WA 2. Trident Seafoods, Seattle, WA 3. Icicle Seafoods, Seattle, WA 4. Ocean Beauty Seafoods, Seattle, WA

As we described on the teleconference, each of the entiti es above are commencing their busiest production seasons as the herring, salmon, and B season pollock fisheries begin in Alaska. Each company is ext remely busy with commencing production and the competent personn el required to complete the questionnaire will be consumed with compli ance with all operational environmental regulations and those respon sible for the financial section of the questionnaire will be busy with the financing needs required for seafood production. In addition, a s was explained by John Woodruff of Icicle Seafoods, many of the facilities that are targeted by the questionnaire are now deployed in vario us remote locations in Alaska. Those facilities have limited commun ications and the personnel required to respond to the questionnaire are responsible for day to day operations of the facility once production has commenced.The herring season generally runs from March 15 throug h the 1st of

June; salmon generally runs from 15 May through 31 Aug ust; the B season for pollock generally runs from 10 June through 15 Octobe r. The production facilities where the information necessary to co mplete the questionnaire are spread throughout Alaska and are sepa rated by thousands of miles depending upon the location and speci es being produced. Many of the questionnaires need to be transfer red in hard copy as electronic mail is not available on some of the facil ity platforms. We respectfully request an extension of time to complete t he questionnaires by 1 October 2010. That date will provid e enough time to complete the surveys with the proper personnel once the ma jority of seafood production has finished. We appreciate very much your consideration of our request . Please let me know if you have any further questions and would you kindly acknowledge receipt of this email as a valid extension req uest for the afore-mentioned entities. Thank you,
John
