Did EPA identify a time for Ap 10 interagency Pb RIA mtg?

Kathy,

 

We spoke of identifying a time for interagency briefing on the Pb NAAQS
RIA on the morning of 4/10, ending by 11:30.  Would 10 - 11:30 work for
your team?  I'd like to update the interagency mtg invitation today if
possible.

 

Thanks very much, I hope all is well,

Consider it definite!  I was waiting for confirmation from EPA - so

we're good to go.

Thanks Kathy, have a good weekend,

Heidi,

I apologize for the delaying e-mailing you this article, but I didn't

have an electronic copy available. I have also attached a spreadsheet

that documents the steps we followed to calculate the value of an IQ

decrement. Please see the tab marked "unit values summary." Please don't

hesitate to call if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Neal

RE: tomorrow's 1:00 meeting

Hi Kathy -

I thought we had already discussed process, and that we would discuss

both benefits and costs methodology and whatever estimates might be

available at this point.  The objective of this meeting is to align on

whether the analyticsl approach is consistent with circular a-4; if it

is too early to discuss all elements of the analysis to assess those

elements in the context of a-4, then perhaps we should reschedule.

Thanks for getting us on the same page, Kathy,

Heidi -- just to get on the same page for tomorrow's 1:00 meeting -- our

plan is to discuss process and benefits methodology tomorrow.  That

seems like plenty to start out with.

Thanks!

Hi Heidi, I was checking out the setup on my laptop and saw your note.

We are prepared to engage with you substantively tomorrow.   Based on

last week's conversation and my expectations, I think that the benefits

methodology discussion is going to take most of the scheduled hour.

The purpose of Kathy's e-mail was to indicate that.  I expect that we

will need to look for additional time early next week (preferably

Monday) to finish the conversation, including the dicussion of the cost

methodology.  Talk to you @ 1:00.
