Hi Byron,

Thanks for your note. Your contact info is useful because I am sure I will be calling you lots!

My number is 202-395-1041 in case you don’t have my work number. 

I too look forward to working with you. 

Will you be the main contact person for EPA on this rule?

thanks.

Hi Chandana,

I don't remember if we have traded e-mails before, and I know we only briefly met during the 

meetings leading up to the President's announcement in May. I thought I should respond to your 

note to make sure you have all of my contact information (copied below in my signature line).

We are looking forward to working with you on this proposal.

Thanks,

Byron

Byron, Jim- Are you available at 11 today for a quick call on status, briefings etc?

I am available later today too if 11 is not good for you.
Byron- do you have a call in number like Bill Charmley has? We always used his number for all 

CAFÉ related conference calls and it was very convenient. I assume all EPA Ann Arbor folks have 

it!

Otherwise, I can conference us all in. 

thanks!

I never heard back from the DOT folks about this week.... but I think 

we may need to consider Monday as well. The best time on our end seems 

to be 4PM. Can you please check if that time works for everyone? 

Alternatively, we can also shoot for 2PM that day. 

It would be great if one person from each agency coordinates for all 

attendees for your respective agency.

I have an 11:00 update with Margo actually on this rule. Any chance we could do it earlier? I can 

be available any time before 11:00.

If 11:00 is the only time that can work, I will see if I can get the Margo meeting moved.

To be sure we are all talking about the same call-in number,

Just out of curiosity, is this about NOAA and the Endangered Species Act or more generally

Subject: Next HD Meeting

Hi Chandana,

The team has been working this morning on the issues from yesterday's

call.

We think we have solutions to a number of the concerns and would like 

to

go through those with the interagency team.

As we mentioned at the end of the call, we would like to get back

together today if at all possible.

Thanks,

Byron

Subject: Time Based Learning 

Hi Amanda,
I am still confirming that NHTSA can join us for a call at 9:00. If they can (or if they are OK with 

EPA doing the call alone), Todd and I will call you around 9:00. If 9:00 won't work for the NHTSA, 

team I will send you a note suggesting some other times.

In addition to 2011 CAFE rule RIA materials I forward previously, here is a figure that captures 

conceptually how the EPA team thinks about time based versus volume based learning (i.e., in 

our minds they are basically the same). Also to be clear, both EPA's historic volume approach 

and NHTSA's time approach should under not over estimate learning effects.

Thanks - Byron
