To: Mr. Hook, Env. Justice Director EPA Region 6
sb: EPA visit to El Paso June 20
Please send us a copy of your agenda during your visit to this region. If necessary,please consider this an FOIA request for that information. I would like to know the purpose of your visit to El Paso and this region, and whom you spoke/met with while here.
I live 3 miles from the Asarco smelter that burned toxic waste for nearly a decade without a permit and contaminated our aquifer, much of that time on your watch. I suggest that like the TCEQ's sham-permitting-process for Asarco's sham-recyling, you possibly are in charge of sham-environmental-justice and it is time you delivered actual justice to this regions' peoples.

During that time you had to be aware of the largest TCEQ (Texas-EPA agreement state)hearing ever conducted on the Sierra Blanca nuclear dump, and were on watch when NYC's organized crime railed-and-dumped NYC sludge on the tiny minority town of Sierra Blanca.
Since your visit here, Asarco has canceled a public meeting for this weekend defending their position on re-opening this contaminated smelter. If you visited with anyone connected with Asarco or representing Asarco interests, please let us know.
I am bc'ing this email to media contacts.
