Folks - Please note the response to this small processor on the Ke nai Peninsula. We have agreed to his request to delay his response until approximately the close of the salmon season because of the narrow and unique circumstances, but we have not agreed to exclude Inlet Fish because we need data for small processors. I strongly suggest that we k eep these inquiries and our responses separate and internal as I a m concerned about the large processors coming back to us if they hear about this extension. Moreover, as a caution, while we hope that no ne of those processors that received the Q will be outside the scope, if there are any such facilities, we must receive that information by wa y of a completed Q and a signed Certification, not simply someo ne's phone call. Moreover, we set out a process in the cover letter for req uesting any extensions, and we should continue to follow that process, and allow a reasonable extension where it is really necessary but req uest those responses (e.g., some but not all facilities, processing v essels) to be returned as they are completed. Similarly regarding pro cessing vessels operated by one of the larger companies (e.g., Trident , Icicle, Ocean Beauty, etc.), if one or more is out of scope, we need for them to tell us by responding (i.e., question B-6) and signing the Ce rtification, not a phone call. Thanks much,
Don ----- Forwarded by DonaldF Anderson/DC/USEPA/US on 0 5/10/2010 04:02 PM

Vince - Thank you for the time you have already taken at the head end of your busy salmon season. We understand your responsibilities an d lack of staff to respond to the questionnaire, and thus we sin cerely appreciate your very serious concerns for lack of time to respond to the questionnaire until the end of the season. We have carefully considered your request and we accept your offer to respond by the end of September 2010. Please understand that one of the most important reasons for the questionnaire is to obtai n information and data from the entire range of facility sizes, particu larly small processors, as the Clean Water Act requires EPA to consider economic achievability of our regulations. We will do so in a co nsiderate and respectful manner given your unique circumstances. Moreover, we also look forward to speaking with you about your thoughts reg arding creative options to utilize fish waste on the Kenai Peninsula, p articularly recycle / reuse options. Thank you again for the time you have already spent, and we look forward to your very valuable responses and input in September.

Dear Mr Anderson:As you are probably aware, I sent the following email to the wrong Mr

Anderson at EPA. The other Mr Anderson was kind enough to forward it to you and to so inform me. However, it looked to me tha t the attachment was not included in the forwarded email. Without th e attachment, the email does not make much sense, so I am forwarding the o riginal communication to you. Thanks,
Vincent Goddard Begin forwarded message: From: Vincent Goddard <vince@inletfish.com> Date: May 5, 2010 10:23:56 AM PDT To: siddiqui.ahmar@epa.gov Cc: doley.todd@epa.gov, anderson.donald@epa.gov Subject: Questionnaire for Canned and Preserved Seafood Processing Facilities [attachment "EPA re Waste Questionnaire 5-05-201 0.doc" deleted by DonaldF Anderson/DC/USEPA/US] Dear Messrs Siddiqui, Doley and Anderson: Please read and consider our preliminary response t o the "Questionnaire" in the attached letter. I would appreciate from each of you: 1) An immediate response to confirm that you have received this email and that you can open and read the attachm ent. 2) A later response to each of our underlined "R esponse Requests" detailed in the letter. I believe that there are specific responses which will be coming from each of you, and that combined you should be answering all eight Response Request s. Please coordinate among yourselves who will respond to eac h of our "Response Requests" enumerated in the letter. Please copy each party so that between the three of you it can be determined (from the EPA side) that all of ou r questions have been answered. As noted in the letter, this Questionnaire has a rrived at the very beginning of our very very busy salmon season, and so I request your understanding for our delayed response as furt her suggested in the body of the letter. Meanwhile, this is actually a matter to which I ha ve dedicated much time and consideration in the past, and I th ink that there are a number of creative options for using fish wa ste here on the Kenai Peninsula. I would be pleased to talk at length with all of you about these ideas and potential projects, but must delay any such interaction until our season has been completed in September.Thanks and regards,

Vincent Goddard Inlet Fish Producers, Inc. Kenai, Alaska
