Andrew: As discussed yesterday, please find attached a copy of the report that I mentioned on the financial condition of the City of Chester. To summarize the discussion on the other items we covered, we can expect a response from EPA on both the Alternatives Evaluation Report and the re-submitted Identification of Sensitive Areas and Pollutants of Concern Report within the next week or so. Additionally, our Counsel will be receiving a letter in the near future responding to the Draft FCA Report. Lastly, once we have received the letter, DELCORA will have the opportunity to discuss the FCA with EPA and/or PA DEP. There was one item that I failed to mention during our call. What is the status of DELCORA’s request for an extension of the EPS-1 early action item deadline? We are progressing with the project as quickly as we can. However, as noted in the request letter, there are procedural and permitting requirements (land acquisition, local municipality, and regulatory), in which we can’t control the time frame, that must be addressed for the project to be completed. We are looking for guidance in the area and would be glad to discuss further if needed, so please advise. Thanks, Mike

Mike, I have spoken with Bob Smolski one of EPA Region IIIs attorneys. I have been advised your June 17, 2016 request to extend the schedule for the new EPS-1 pump station appears to require a modification to Paragraph V.26 of the Consent Decree which includes a schedule to place in operation that pump station by December 31st, 2018. I suggest you talk to your attorney and determine whether your request requires a modification of the CD. Andrew F.

Mike FYI Peg -----Original Message----- From: Hill, Margaret A. Sent: Thursday, September 22, 2016 9:11 PM To: Marcello Mollo ([email protected]) <[email protected]> Subject: FW: FCA Response/ SECOND REQUEST FOR MEETING Marcello Copying you as my hope is that you may enable a response to come from EPA. So far, I have heard nothing from EPA except Phil was going to pass on the request. This is reminiscent of my emails to EPA prior to DOJ's involvement: they went unanswered for a long time so this time -- given the provisions of the Consent Decree -- I will send an email every day until I receive a response. I have not received any phone calls back either. Obviously, time is of the essence in trying to resubmit within 60 days which means that DELCORA first needs to understand EPA's comments which were prepared in a very summary fashion as you already know. Thank you, Margaret -----Original Message----- From: Hill, Margaret A. Sent: Thursday, September 22, 2016 6:16 PM To: 'Yeany, Philip' <[email protected]> Cc: 'Smolski, Robert' <[email protected]>; '[email protected]' <[email protected]> Subject: RE: FCA Response/ SECOND REQUEST FOR MEETING Importance: High Phil ~ I called Andrew Dinsmore yesterday and left a voicemail requesting a meeting. I also spoke with you yesterday requesting a meeting to discuss EPA's letter regarding the draft FCA submitted on behalf of DELCORA. I am requesting (again) a meeting with EPA, as suggested and offered in Andrew Dinsmore's letter, and as provided in the Consent Decree. Also, as discussed yesterday, pursuant to the Consent Decree, DELCORA has 60 days from the receipt date of your 9/15/2016 letter to resubmit a revised draft FCA to the Agency. We received the 9/15/2016 letter on September 20, 2016. DELCORA has already initiated a review of the draft FCA in conjunction with EPA's letter; however, a meeting with EPA , as provided for in the Consent Decree, would be extremely useful before DELCORA begins to revise the draft FCA.
