I have more than a passing familiarity with the EPA, what is the question? PM me if you want. RWebb might be a good source as well.

my cousin used to work at the DC office - he's an MD - env'l med.

but that was long ago & I don't know anybody there anymore

dunno if you want to post your issue, but you might also be able to talk to your state people - Dept. of Ecology or similar

also - you might need to hire an Env'l lawyer

EPA is divided up into several regions. Go to their site and find out which region your question relates to and then contact them. They should have a public affairs person's contact info there. Go to the staff directory or to the press releases for the contact info. If you find the name and can't find how to reach them, PM me and I'll find it.

I can't say much, client-hack relationship. I helped Wolfe find some state air pollution control permit information of a company. I don't mine saying I got him pretty much everything he wanted in about an hour.
