My name is Erin Hodge, and I study Environmental Geoscience at Boston College. I 

wanted to speak to you today about why I support the EPA's Clean Power plan, and 

their work to cut carbon pollution and fight global warming. 

I grew up in Great Falls, Virginia, not too far from here. Our roads are narrow and 

windy at the best of times, and honestly dangerous at the worst. I've been here to 

witness increasingly heavy storms turn those roads into rivers, causing damage and 

even death. Storms bring down trees in my neighborhood nearly every other week 

in the summer, tearing down power lines and leaving us without electricity. I 

understand that these storms are becoming more intense because of climate change, 

and that average precipitation in the US is expected to further increase still. But I 

also know the impacts of global warming go beyond what I've seen at home. 

I spent over a month on the Pacific, studying the ocean. As the world's largest 

carbon sink, the oceans absorb a lot of the carbon dioxide released into the 

atmosphere. As atmospheric levels increase, the ocean has done its best to keep 

up-and as more COz dissolves into the oceans, the more acidic they become. Coral 

and shells become more difficult to form, and the delicate balance that marine 

ecosystems depend on begins to fail. My shipmates and I collected pH samples as 

evidence of the impacts of carbon pollution. And that's just one of many chain 

reactions started by a polluted atmosphere. 

Power plants are responsible for around 40% of America's carbon emissions. And 

without this rule, there are no federal limits on the amount of carbon pollution they 

can release into the air. The Clean Power Plan is a huge step forward for the US, 

acting to prevent further damage to our environment and infrastructure caused by 

carbon pollution. 

This is what the EPA was designed to do. This plan will reduce air pollution to 

combat asthma and heat waves, and COz to combat warming. I am grateful for the 

EPA's commitment to the fight against global warming, and urge you to finalize the 

Clean Power Plan. 

Thank you.

GENERAL SUBJECT : Basis of Hexachlorobenzene load reported to TRI in 2008



## TOPICS DISCUSSED AND ACTION TAKEN

On Monday, February 15, 2010, I left a message for Ms. Tricia Simpson asking to discuss the

hexachlorobenzene load reported to TRI in 2008.

On Monday, February 15, 2010, Ms. Simpson returned my ca ll and instructed me to contact Mr. Jeff Noga, the

environmental manager, to discuss the TRI report.

On Monday, February 15, 2010, I contacted Mr. Noga and explained that I was interested in the

hexachlorobenzene reported to TRI in 2008. Mr. Noga forwarded my request to the TRI reporting contact, who

said that they calculated the pounds of hexachlorobenzene released using 1⁄2 the detection limit because although

it was not detected it could be in the crude oil. The contact did not recall seeing any hexachlorobenzene

detections for the years she developed the TRI reports.

Exhibit 10.4


RETAIL PROPERTIES OF AMERICA, INC.
AMENDMENT TO RETENTION AGREEMENT


This Amendment to Retention Agreement (the “Amendment”) is made and entered into by and between Shane C. Garrison (“Executive”) and Retail Properties of America, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), effective as of February 19, 2015.
RECITALS
A.On February 19, 2013, Executive and Company entered into that certain Retention Agreement (the “Retention Agreement”) by and between Executive and Company providing inter alia for certain payments to Executive in the event of the termination of Executive’s employment.
B.The structure of the Company’s bonus program has changed since the date of the execution of the Retention Agreement, and the Company and Executive desire to amend the Retention Agreement to reflect the changes in such structure.
NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1.Amendment of Retention Agreement.  Section 3(a) of the Retention Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
(a)    Cash Severance (Non-Change in Control).  Executive shall receive on the sixtieth (60th) day following the Termination Date a lump sum cash amount (less applicable withholdings) equal to the sum of (i) twelve (12) months of Executive’s base salary at the rate then in effect (without giving effect to any reduction in the base salary rate amounting to Good Reason), (ii) an amount equal to 100% of the dollar amount of the Executive’s annual bonus (including 100% of the target cash and equity components), calculated based on the annual bonus for the year in which Executive’s employment was terminated (or the prior year if a target annual bonus (both cash and equity) award amount hadn’t yet been established for such year) that would be paid (or granted) to Executive if Executive’s employment had not terminated and if all performance-based milestones were achieved at 100% of the target level by both the Company and Executive (the “Target Bonus”), and (iii) all annual bonus amounts earned during the year in which the termination occurs through the most recently completed fiscal quarter prior to the termination date but otherwise remaining unpaid as of the Termination Date.
2.Conflicts.  In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Amendment and the terms of the Retention Agreement, the terms of this Amendment shall supersede and control.  In all other respects, the Retention Agreement shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect.







IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the parties has executed this Amendment, in the case of the Company by its duly authorized officer, as of the day and year set forth below.

RE: could you please send me the RIA document you mentioned today which 

has the county info on ozone secondary standard ?

Ron, that's a generous offer, but OMB isn't allowed to outsource

coordination of review.

This RIA chapter has already been distributed to all interagency

reviewers along with the draft rule, so I suspect that Tom seeks

something else.

Tom, if you could describe as specifically as possible what you are

looking for, we'll work on getting a response.

Best,

heidi

## United States Court of Appeals FOR THE EIGHTH CIRCUIT

___________ No. 07-2264

___________ Roberto Funes Tercero, * * Petitioner, * * Petition for Review of v. * an Order of the Board * of Immigration Appeals. Michael B. Mukasey, * * [UNPUBLISHED] Respondent. *

___________ Submitted: May 26, 2008 Filed: June 2, 2008

___________ Before BYE, SMITH, and BENTON, Circuit Judges.

___________ PER CURIAM. Roberto Funes Tercero, a native and citizen of Guatemala, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA), which affirmed an Immigration Judge’s (IJ’s) deni al of withholding of removal 1 based on Tercero’s failure to show that he had suffered past persecution or th at it was more likely than not he would be persecuted if returned to Guatemala.-2- Upon careful review, we conclude th at the BIA’s decision is supported by substantial evidence on the record as a whole. See Ming Ming Wijono v. Gonzales , 439 F.3d 868, 872 (8th Cir. 2006) (standard of review). The IJ gave specific and convincing reasons for disbelieving Tercer o’s testimony regarding past and likely future persecution on account of his Mayan ethnicity. SeeMamana v. Gonzales , 436 F.3d 966, 968-69 (8th Cir. 2006). Further, the then current Country Report on Human Rights Practices in Guatemala indicated th at the Guatemalan government had taken steps to curb discrimination and to protect the rights of the indigenous population. Cf. Pascual v. Mukasey , 514 F.3d 483, 488 (6th Cir. 2007) (rejecting asylum claim based on Mayan ethnicity). Accordingly, we deny the petition.
