Dear Mr. Czerniak: 

{i)VEOLIA 

ENVIRONMENTAl SERVICES 

Let me express my appreciation for the opponunity to meet with you and your staff last week to 

address Veolia Environmental Services' concems regarding the re-opening of our Title V penn it 

and tbe timing of our Comprehensive Pertormance Test (CPT). 

Regarding the re-opening of our pennit, it was encouraging to bear that it was never USEPA's 

intent, should Veolia appeal to the 7th Circuit Court, to force Veolia to implement the draft re- opened pennit conditions prior to the ruling on the appeal. This commitment is vefY im)l(>rtant 

to Veolia and greatly appreciated. However. we do remain concerned with many of the specific 

items contained within the draft re-opened penni!. 

Our first concern is the manner in which the re-opening was conducted. FurthemJore, the pemJit 

was reopened 4 Y:. years into its 5 year duration. As we mentioned in our meeling, with the 

pennit renewal applic ation in process, the re-opening of the penni! occurring at the same time is 

redundant, unnecessnl')', and costly for bot)l the USEPA and Veolia. 

We appreciate your commitment to provide Veolia with an approved CPT test plan by the end of 

June 2013 so Veolia c.an meet its 60 day public notice period prior to commencing its testing. 

However, as we discussed in the meeting, Veolia believes that the changing of the CPT schedule 

deviates from earlier agreements with USEPA. With USEPA's changing of the CPT schedule, 

both Veolia and USEPA could be subjected to potential lawsuits by environmental groups.

Veolia would suggest that you ple.~ e review the documentS and discussions that we bad with 

your predecessor in 2008 and the precedem s.:t by subsequent testing schedules that wer~ 

approved by the USEPi\ after the 2009 CPTs were perfom1cd. We helieve n return to the 

original testing schedules would eliminate the potential for lawsuits by environmentalw-oups and 

constitutes fair treatment to Veolia. 

Again, tlurnk you lor the opportunity to meet with you and your staff and we look forward to 

continuing to work with yotL 

Very truly YOU.\'S,
