To Whom It May Concern:

On behalf of Documented, pursuant to FOIA, I hereby request the following:

1. All email and other correspondence in the possession of EPA custodian Anna Wildeman, that include one of more of the following keywords:

“Waters Advocacy Coalition”
“WAC"
"American Farm Bureau Federation"
"Bracewell LLP"
"Edison Electric Institute"
"EEI"
"National Association of Home Builders"
"National Association of Manufacturers"
"NAM"
"National Cattlemen's Beef Association"
"National Mining Association"
"NMA"
"Hunton & Williams"
"National Rural Electric Cooperative Association"
"NRECA"
"U.S. Chamber of Commerce"
"U.S. Chamber of Commerce Global Energy Institute"

Where possible, please provide any records on a rolling basis as they become available for release.

Documented seeks the above listed records for noncommercial use as a representative of the news media. Documented qualifies as a news media organization under the definition provided by Congress in the OPEN Government Act because it “gathers information of potential interest to a large segment of the public, and uses its editorial skills to turn the raw materials into a distinct work, and distributes that work to an audience.” Specifically, Documented is seeking this FOIA request because the information in it is of interest to a large portion of the pubic, including the many concerned citizens that regularly acquire information through our extensive range of publications. These publications include websites, blogs, newsletters, reports, press statements, social media networks such as Facebook, and Twitter. In addition, Documented reaches out to many traditional news media outlets that regularly broadcast our publications through television, radio, print and electronic articles and interviews. Documented plans to compile the information from this request into a distinct, original work that will be released to the public through the publications listed above. 

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter.

I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Jamie Corey

* Fee Waiver Original Justification: Documented seeks the above listed records for noncommercial use as a representative of the news media. Documented qualifies as a news media organization under the definition provided by Congress in the OPEN Government Act because it “gathers information of potential interest to a large segment of the public, and uses its editorial skills to turn the raw materials into a distinct work, and distributes that work to an audience.” Specifically, Documented is seeking this FOIA request because the information in it is of interest to a large portion of the pubic, including the many concerned citizens that regularly acquire information through our extensive range of publications. These publications include websites, blogs, newsletters, reports, press statements, social media networks such as Facebook, and Twitter. In addition, Documented reaches out to many traditional news media outlets that regularly broadcast our publications through television, radio, print and electronic articles and interviews. Documented plans to compile the information from this request into a distinct, original work that will be released to the public through the publications listed above.
* Fee Waiver Disposition Reason: the requester for EPA-HQ-2019-002640, EPA-HQ-2019-002641, and EPA-HQ-2019-002644 has agreed to combine these FOIAs into one. OW will respond to the EPA-HQ-2019-002640 FOIA. There is an outstanding Fee Waiver Task for EPA-HQ-2019-002641 and EPA-HQ-2019-002644 which are no longer relevant and need to be closed out so I can close out the FOIA. Email from Lynn Zipf on 2/5/19

From: Environmental Protection Agency

EPA-HQ-2019-002644 has been processed with the following final disposition: Duplicate Request. This FOIA will be responded to via EPA-HQ-2019-002640.
