Governor John Sununu
The White House
Washington, DC 20500
My dear Governor:
Words cannot express the gratitude all Americans should feel for
your bringing sanity into the Environmentalist's draconian
program for our country. May I suggest a move which might
further the cause? So far as I have read or heard, you did not
explain the reasons for slamming on the brakes to slow this
joyride at the taxpayer's expense. I have taken the liberty of
enclosing two sources with which you are probably familiar, an
article in the February Reader's Digest and the comments of that
marvellous basher of fake scientists, Dr. Petr Beckmann, in his
monthly newsletter, Access To Energy. Dr Beckmann's graph of the
earth's temperature for the last hundred years, published in the
January 1990 issue, copy enclosed, knocks Global Warming into a
cocked hat.
Whether the media will pay any attention to statements of
scientifically verified facts is of course another question, but
coming from you, it would be difficult for them to entirely
dodge.
Another suggestion: since the Navy has had an almost perfect
record of safety with its nuclear - powered vessels, how about
turning over the operation of all nuclear plants to it? It would
put an end to carelessness and accidents, (30 days in the brig
for a boo-boo instead of, "oh, please be more careful"), and it
would rock the Naderites to about 9 on the Richter scale.
Operation by the Navy would have the further advantage of making
it a lot more difficult for the anti-nuclear crowd to sabotage
the construction and running of the plants. As for justification:
what is the difference between protecting our energy source at
the nuclear plants and protecting it at the Straits of Hormuz?
For anyone with enough sense to come in out of a hard hail storm,
there is none. We might as well face the fact that ultimately,
nuclear is the ONLY possible route to go. Incidentally, I believe
the Swedes are on line about 93% of the time, while we are nearer
67%, an outrage.
LBEST.

With plenty of non-polluting nuclear power available, the
electric automobile could come in to its own. I presume you are
familiar with what General Motors has done in this field -- a 50

can be charged with house current over night.
Again, thanks and congratulations for what you have already done
to save the nation from disaster.

Dear Mr. Sununu:
On behalf of the officers and directors of the
U.S. Chamber of Commerce, it is a special pleasure to invite
you and Mrs. Sununu to be our head table guests at the
dinner celebrating our 78th Annual Meeting.
This festive, black tie reception and dinner,

Dear Governor Sununu:
Enclosed are two articles which outline a new approach to educating
children called cognitive instruction. It was developed by Dr. Joan Fulton
at The Developmental Skills Institute and is currently in use in several
school systems in the State of Virginia. The articles quote some results that
have been achieved and more are available.
It is a method which does not separate children into groups or apply labels
such as fast or slow. And school systems which are already pushed for
funds retain the current curriculum they are using, only the methods in
which new ideas are presented is changed.
We are looking for advice and assistance in reaching as many school
systems as possible and would like to meet with you national
possible convience.
Thank you very much for your time and I look forward to hearing from
you.
Sincerely,

February 18, 1990
John H. Sununu
Chief of Staff to the President
1600 Independence Avenue, SW
Washington, DC 20500
Dear Governor Sununu:
I write to bring to your attention a policy of the Food and
Drug Administration that is costing the lives of untold numbers
of Americans each year. The FDA has effectively banned home
blood collection kits designed to facilitate voluntary, anonymous
testing for the presence of human immunodeficiency virus ("HIV")
antibody.
Over two years ago, my client, University Hospital
Laboratories ("UHL"), submitted its application for premarket
approval of "AIDS CHECK.' Users of AIDS CHECK would simply draw
a blood specimen through a simple and harmless finger prick,
collect the specimen onto special filter paper, and send the
specimen by pre-paid mailer to UHL's laboratory for testing.
UHL's laboratory would test the specimen using the identical
tests that doctors and hospitals use -- the ELISA screening test
and the Western Blot confirmation test, both according to the
protocol of the American Association of Blood Banks. The test
user would then call a toll-free telephone number and identify
himself by the coded identification number provided in the kit.
The test results, counseling, and follow-up referrals would be
provided anonymously over the telephone by UHL's medical staff
trained in AIDS counseling, crisis intervention, and telephone
counseling. Pretest counseling would also be provided through
printed educational materials included in the kit and through a
toll-free hotline.
FDA has neither approved nor denied UHL's premarket
application for AIDS CHECK. It has simply refused to consider
UHL's application, or any other premarket approval application
for an AIDS home blood collection kit. The FDA's refusal to
accept UHL's (or any other company's) premarket approval
John H. Sununu
February 18, 1990
Page 2
application is based upon its decision¹ to accept such
applications only for AIDS home blood collection kits that (1)
a.
are "marketed for professional use only within a comprehensive
health care environment," (2) provide for collection of a
validated blood sample "by one who is recognized by a state or
local authority to perform such procedures," and (3) provide that
a health care professional communicate the test results and
counsel the requestor in a face-to-face setting rather than by
telephone.
FDA's policy thus reduces to this: it will accept premarket
approval applications for all AIDS home blood collection kits,
except those designed for use in the home. FDA's policy plainly
limits HIV testing options to those currently available --
private physicians, hospitals, medical clinics, and the like --
and forecloses development of an equally reliable option that
guarantees anonymity and is performed in the privacy and
conveniency of one's own home.
FDA's policy of refusing to file premarket approval
applications for AIDS home blood collection kits is allegedly
based on its concerns regarding (1) the ability of lay persons
safely and adequately to collect and package blood samples for
shipment, and (2) the ability of health care professionals
trained in AIDS counseling to provide effective pre- and post-
test counseling over the telephone rather than in a face-to-face
setting. In a lengthy comment submitted to FDA at an April 6
hearing on the subject of AIDS home test kits, UHL's Chairman,
Mr. Elliott Millenson, responded to these concerns. A copy of
that comment is attached, and I will not elongate this letter by
repeating the responses contained therein. Two points, however,
warrant your special consideration.
First, the premarket approval application submitted by UHL
contains data from clinical trials using a large number of
volunteers from all socioeconomic groups. These data provide
valuable information about precisely the concerns that allegedly
form the basis of FDA's policy of refusing to accept and study
premarket approval applications for AIDS home test kits. In
other words, because of FDA's concerns about such things as lay
collection of blood samples, it has adopted a policy of refusing
to consider premarket approval applications containing clinical
trial data addressing (and allaying) precisely those concerns.
That the FDA's policy is arbitrary and capricious is obvious.
Second, FDA's superficially legitimate concerns about the
relative effectiveness of telephone counseling, as opposed to
1
54 Fed Reg. 7280 (Feb. 19, 1989).
John H. Sununu
February 18, 1990
Page 3
face-to-face counseling, of persons with positive test results
are overwhelmed by three indisputable facts. First, many people
who should be tested for the HIV antibody (e.g., those who are in
high-risk categories for HIV infection) are not taking advantage
of existing HIV testing options. Indeed, the experts in this
field agree that the vast majority (some say over 90 percent) of
HIV-infected persons in the United States are not aware of their
infection. Second, some individuals who are not taking advantage
of existing testing options would use an equally reliable option
that provided the privacy, anonymity, and convenience of an AIDS
home blood collection kit such as AIDS CHECK. Finally, and most
importantly, some of the individuals who have rejected existing
testing options but would use an AIDS home blood collection kit
such as AIDS CHECK will, upon receiving a positive test result,
seek potentially life-prolonging medical treatment and alter
their sexual behavior to protect against transmitting the virus
to others.
Thus, the FDA's de facto ban on AIDS home blood collection
kits constitutes a de facto death sentence for untold numbers of
individuals who would not have become infected with the virus had
such kits been available to the public. Moreover, implicit in
the FDA's policy is the patronizing notion that individuals who
would use an AIDS home blood collection kit cannot be trusted,
and should not be permitted, to decide for themselves whether
telephone reporting and counseling concerning HIV antibody test
results is adequate to their individual needs. In light of these
facts, FDA's insistence on face-to-face reporting and counseling
concerning, HIV antibody test results simply cannot reasonably be
sustained.
In sum, FDA's policy requiring face-to-face reporting and
counseling concerning HIV antibody test results is an example of
a governmental agency allowing the "perfect," which is
unattainable, to become the enemy of the good, which is. And it
will result in the unnecessary and entirely avoidable infection
and ultimate death of innocent individuals.
FDA's refusal to consider UHL's premarket approval
application is inconsistent with the requirements of the Medical
Device Amendments to the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, and I am
confident that it will not withstand judicial scrutiny. More
importantly, however, the policy on which that refusal is based
2 This is particularly true in light of the wealth of data
establishing the effectiveness of telephone counseling. Indeed,
many of the medical professionals and organizations currently
administering HIV antibody tests do not provide face-to-face
reporting and counseling concerning test results.
John H. Sununu

is at odds with the health and safety of the American people.
Accordingly, UHL earnestly requests that the appropriate policy-
making officials in the Administration inquire into and reverse
FDA's policy regarding accepting premarket approval applications
for AIDS home blood collection kits.
Sincerely,
Chuck

Dear John:
I strongly support Admiral Watkins's initiative to formulate a
National Energy Strategy and am hopeful that this process will lead
to a full examination of oil and natural gas policy. To assist in
this effort, I have forward to Admiral Watkins four reports on oil
and gas policy prepared by my Energy Council. I asked that the
Department of Energy consider these reports in the draft NES
document scheduled for transmittal to Congress in early April.
I have enclosed a copy of my letter to the Admiral and the four
reports in light of President Bush's and your interest in energy
matters. Please call me if you have any questions about the
reports or if I can otherwise be of assistance.
Sincerely,
Bell

THE
or
STATE OF ARKANSAS
SEAL
OF
OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR
Bill Clinton
ARKANSAS
State Capitol
Governor
Little Rock 72201
February 9, 1990
The Honorable John Sununu
Office of the President
The White House
Washington, D.C. 20500
Dear John:
The purpose of this letter is to inform you of my concerns regarding
the effect of pending acid rain legislation; specifically, the
President's bill (H.R. 3030/S. 1490) and the bill reported by the
Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works (S. 1630), on the
electric ratepayers of Arkansas. I certainly recognize the need for
a cleaner environment and, in fact, applaud the current
administration's focus on environmental issues. In particular, I
commend the efforts being made to reduce sulfur dioxide (S02)
emissions. However, I would like to apprise you of our situation in
Arkansas.
I am proud of the fact that the 1987 SO2 emission rate for the
entire state of Arkansas was only .65 lbs/mmbtu, which is slightly
more than half the rate of 1.2 lbs/mmbtu being proposed as a
national standard for SO2 emissions in this pending legislation. In
1987, the five coal-fired generating units in Arkansas emitted only
.45 percent of the total U.S. S02 power plant emissions while
consuming 1.64 percent of the coal used in electric plants. The
1989 emissions rates for these five units are also below the
proposed SO2 emissions rate. Additionally, Arkansas is one of only
two states within the continental United States that has met the
National Ambient Air Quality Standards - another indication of the
air quality in Arkansas.
Yet, in spite of the low emissions rates achieved by our coal-fired
plants through the burning of low-sulfur coal, we are being asked in
the pending clean air legislation to incur further costs to clean
further our air, which is already some of the cleanest in the
country. Under the provisions of H.R. 3030, those plants with a
current SO2 emissions rate of less than 1.2 lbs/mmbtu would be
required to maintain their 1985 emissions rate. As a result, all
five units in Arkansas would be required to install scrubbers to
meet or exceed their 1985 emissions rates at a cost of approximately
$220 per kilowatt (current dollars). Why? When our utilities
entered into the long-term contracts for low-sulfur coal for these
plants, the quality of the coal delivered was allowed to vary as
long as it met or exceeded the EPA permit rate for each unit. Now
the proposed legislation would impose an arbitrary standard of 1985
emissions rates which would override the EPA permit level our
utilities used to negotiate their coal supplies.
Under the provisions of S. 1630, the 1985 baseline tons of SO2 would
be increased by 20 percent. However, in the case of three of the
five units, scrubbers would still be required under this bill
because they were running at low capacity factors in 1985. So, this
particular change will not solve the problem of using a 1985
baseline either.
This phenomenon is not unique to the State of Arkansas. There are
about 175 other coal-fired units which have opted for meeting
emissions standards by burning low-sulfur coal without the use of
scrubbers. If the majority of these plants install scrubbers, then
the number of tons of S02 emissions reduced may very well
exceed the proposed goal of 10 million tons. However, the cost will
be enormous. For the state of Arkansas, the total cost for the five
units has been estimated at $700 million (current dollars), with an
annual revenue requirement increase of $135 million (current
dollars). For the ratepayers of Arkansas, this will mean a rate
increase of 5-10 percent (current dollars). This is especially
disturbing in light of Arkansas relatively poor economic situation,
ranking 49th in per capita income.
Because the costs to comply with the pending legislation are
substantial and because the installation of scrubbers in the case of
units like those in Arkansas could result in "overcontrol" of SO2
emissions, the Arkansas Public Service Commission (APSC) has been
quite active throughout this legislative process. Specifically, the
APSC has worked with the National Association of Regulatory Utility
Commissioners to present testimony to the affected Committees and
with the Arkansas Congressional delegation to communicate and to
bolster support for Arkansas' position. Additionally, the APSC has
sent letters to Senate and House Committee members to inform them of
our views. Now, I am asking that the administration act to avoid a
gross inequity to the ratepayers of Arkansas.
Specifically, I propose an alternative to the imposition of the 1985
SO2 emissions rate or tonnage level. I would suggest that those
plants currently emitting less than 1.2 lbs/mmbtu of S02 be allowed
to emit at that rate or their EPA permit level, whichever is lower.
This amendment would be consistent with the fact that all of the
Arkansas units and many of those elsewhere were issued
EPA permits under New Source Performance Standards for S02
emissions. If the pending legislation were amended to allow for
this provision, there is no reason why the concept of an emissions
cap would have to be compromised; on the other hand, those units
meeting or exceeding the proposed SO2 emissions standard would not
be penalized by having to incur further costs for further clean-up.
Of additional concern to me is the fact that the emissions trading
program as proposed in the pending legislation pertains only to
"affected sources, that is, those plants designated in the
legislation itself. While no one would deny that the clean-up of
these "affected sources" will be expensive and that the affected
utilities should, therefore, receive emissions allowances to sell to
help offset that expense, it does seem unreasonable that utilities
like those in Arkansas, which have already made the investment in
long-term low-sulfur coal contracts for their units, will receive no
emissions allowances, even though their emissions rates already are
below the proposed national standard of 1.2 lbs/mmbtu of S02. In
fact, after the year 2000, the utilities in Arkansas will have to
purchase emissions allowances either from utilities owning "affected
sources" or from EPA (under S. 1630) in order to build coal-fired
generation to accommodate load growth due to economic growth. The
cost of these allowances, whether market-based or the proposed EPA
set price of $1500 per ton (S. 1630), will be borne by Arkansas
ratepayers in addition to the compliance costs outlined above.
What I would like to propose as an amendment to the emissions
trading program in the pending legislation is that emissions
allowances be granted to all units currently emitting at a rate
lower than 1.2 lbs/mmbtu for S02, as well as the granting of
allowances to the "affected sources" designated in the legislation.
What this would insure is that utilities like those in Arkansas
would receive credit for steps they have already taken to achieve
compliance with their current EPA permit level for S02. This
amendment would create a level playing field for emissions trading
which would not favor those utilities complying with clean air
standards in the future, rather than those which have already
complied. Furthermore, it would be reasonable to grant allowances
to those units currently in compliance at a lower rate than those on
the "affected sources" list, so that the so-called "dirty" units
would have more allowances to trade in the future to offset their
compliance costs.
I hope that you will consider and give your support to the changes I
have suggested to the pending clean air legislation. I consider
these changes to be of the utmost importance to insure that the
costs of creating a cleaner environment are shared as equitably as
possible and to insure that undue financial burdens are not placed
on states like Arkansas which have already done their share for
clean air.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Min Bill Clinton

Paul Rd D. Coverdell
China has not given us a written statement on what they
propose for Peace Corps '90.
Secretary Eagleburger and I have met and agree it is not
likely that China can be done in '90 under these
circumstances. This takes pressure off the need for
additional '90 funds.

Dear Mr. Sununu:
Some of the people that live and work in Montana House District 75 have
requested that I write to you to express our concerns about President Bush's
Budget Proposal to cut below cost timber sales. We firmly believe that any
form of management of our National Forest will cost the government more than
it returns. However, Forest Service timber sales have a high impact on the
communities in the areas where they are located. Schools, Roads, Tax struct-
ures and Jobs are just a few. I know it is hard for some Congressmen from
other states to understand the impact that these Forest Service timber sales
have on our communities, our families and our state.
We do not believe that the Montana Wilderness Society has been truth-
full in their lobbying effort in Washington. We 'are willing to help prove
that Montana forests are being managed improperly, if management plans do
not include timber sales. Remember the forest fires of 1988, over 90% of
the areas burned were not timber harvest areas. They were areas of other
management description, Wilderness. National Parks, Wildlife Management etc.
We all love the diversity our National Forest provides. However, we are able
to enjoy these things because of our jobs and some of these jobs are narvest-
ing timber and manufacturing various wood products from National Forest timber
sales.
To assist you with telling our very important message to other Congress-
men, we will provide tours of our job sites and manufacturing facilities at
your request. If we work together our families can plan for the future, which
will provide strong communities and a stable economy. As it stands today we
are very uncertain.
We are asking that you support the multiple-use concept of forest manage-
ment. Please do not support S-346 ! HR-987 now before congress. Please support
S-237 which is proposed by Senator Frank Murkowski. Also, please support the
resolution by Senator Steve Symms calling for a "Multiple-Use Sustained Yield
Week", celebrating the 30th anniversary of the Multiple-Use, Sustained Yield
1960. This act has provided good management of our National Forests
J
needsto be remembered and continued.
Please advise us of any way we can help.

Dear Dr. Sununu:
As chairman of a group of engineering school Deans (that includes the "Big

opportunity to meet with you in the spring. Our discussions would include
(off the record) issues of mutual interest. A date during National Science
Week, April 22-28 would be good for all of us, and if this is possible for you,
for breakfast, lunch or anytime during the day for an hour or two. I will
contact your staff to develop a specific advance agenda to include those
items you and we would like to cover, and, as well, a location.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,

Mr. John H. Sununu
Chief of Staff
The White House
Washington, D.C. 20500
Dear John:
As you know, the Secretary of Agriculture is authorized
under federal law to acquire or retain conservational easements
on property held by the Farmers Home Administration (FmHA). In
exercising this authority, the Secretary is required to consult
with the Director of the Fish and Wildlife Service. I understand
that a Memorandum of Understanding between the Secretary of
Agriculture and the Director of Fish and Wildlife Service has
been drafted and is currently under review at the White House. I
am writing to invite your assistance in two regards. First, I
want to assure that the costs of protecting wetlands do not fall
unduly upon the agricultural community. Secondly, as the plant-
ing season fast approaches, it is critical that an inter-agency
understanding is reached in a timely manner.
I fully endorse the President's initiatives to protect our
valuable wetland resources. In enacting this initiative,
however, I am concerned with the needs and fair treatment of the
farmers of Maine. Wetlands protection is an important objective
with wide public support. It would be unfair, however, to expect
farmers to bear a disproportionate burden in achieving this goal.
Accordingly, I would like to stress the need to effect a
Memorandum of Understanding that is equitable to farmers.
Also, until a final Memorandum of Understanding is adopted,
FmHA-inventoried land will continue to be an economic drain to
the federal government as well as a source of frustration to
Maine farmers who hope to acquire FmHA-inventoried land for this
growing season. With the planting season soon upon us, I cannot
overemphasize the need for a timely resolution of this matter.
I appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward
to your response.
With best regards, I am
Sincerely
500 William S. Cohen

Obviously, with great interest we continue to monitor deliberations
over the federal Clean Air Act. We have already written our
Massachusetts federal legislators regarding our concerns over
certain reauthorization elements. Your pivotal role in that debate
would be of great interest to our members attending this
conference.

It has come to my attention that through a typographical
error my February 22 letter in support of the appointment of
Commissioner Barrett to a full term on the the Federal
Communications Commission referenced "John" Barrett instead of
"Andrew" Barrett.
I hope that this error will in no way detract from the New

continued support for Commissioner Barrett's reappointment.
I am available to you or your staff if you have any
questions.

UNITED STATES MEMBER COMMITTEE
PBEC
1 March 1990
Governor John H. Sununu
Chief of Staff to the President
The White House
Washington, D.C. 20500
Dear Governor Sununu:
David Demerest has passed our request for President Bush to speak
at PBEC's International General Meeting to Barry Tron for action.
I am pleased to learn that this request will come before the Long
Range Committee this week, but concerned since the President
normally does one and a half minute video tapes.
Given that Japanese Prime Minister Kaifu will speak for 20 minutes
and will personally host a one hour satellite session which will
include Prime Ministers Hawke (Australia) and Lee (Singapore) and
President Aquino (Philippines) and that Prime Minister Mulroney and
President Salinas will each provide videotapes of ten minutes plus,
we believe that a longer video by President Bush would be
commensurate with the occasion.
We have provided Mr. Tron with additional information and talking
points so that the Long Range Committee will urge the President to
commit to a ten minute video. We stress. that it is essential that
the United States be strongly represented during this gathering of
over 1000 business leaders from 16 Pacific Basin countries being
held in Tokyo.
I would appreciate
urge the President to do a ten minute video.
James Costantino

MEMORANDUM OF RECORD
TO:
The Honorable John Sununu
Chief of Staff
The White House
FROM:
Paul D. Coverdell
RE:
Recent Inquiries about Peace Corps' Activity
Over the last several weeks, we have been receiving various
inquiries from the Hill regarding Peace Corps, including some
from the Democratic Policy Committee.
Yesterday, staff of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee
summoned my Eastern European coordinator to a meeting and
asked:
1)
What would maximum Peace Corps strength for Eastern
Europe equate to?
2)
What is Peace Corps' view of the thirty odd bills
creating volunteer activity in Eastern Europe?
This may indicate legislative mischief on volunteer programs.
It is my view that volunteer programs should be highly
coordinated. New programs are expensive, drawn out and a
burden to the host countries.
Would like to discuss.

Dear Mr. Sununu,
I was very sorry to see the political lobbyists for several environmental groups turn their
personal attacks towards you. I wanted you to know that you have support for the critical
role you play within the Administration:
Although I know that you are mentally tough and have seen these tacties before, its always
nice to know someone appreciates the sacrifices that come with enduring public criticism -
- especially when that criticism is unwarranted and you are placed in a position where it is
politically impracticle to fight back. Unfortunately, we are in an age where those who
accuse another, as these "inside-the-Beltway paid political environmental lobbyists" have
done to you, are not held responsible or accountable to any standard of truth or objectivity.
This country needs strong, determined and balanced leadership. When many are
stampeding to jump on the environmental bandwagon, a few must ensure that any decisions
that are made are wise ones. It is critically important to this country that you, along with
others like you, continue to act on your best judgement and convictions.
I can't help but think that the vast majority of Americans want the same thing that
President Bush and John Sununu want -- a reasonable, well conceived set of public policies
that facilitate economic well-being and promote environmental stability and protection. We
need and can have both, if calmer heads prevail.
Your critics hold themselves accountable to only a. purist preservation standard that
unfortunately ignores the economic needs of humans. They can afford to be narrow
minded, but the Administration cannot.
So, Mr. Sununu, while you take the lumps they unfairly dish out, test assured that you: jult
is considerably more difficult than theirs. Anyone can pursue a singleminded agenda, but
it takes a special, wise man to balance competing interests. You've done well to bring
objectivity to key decisions, so hang in there. We need you and appreciate the price you
pay to serve the public.
Sincerely,
James Cason E Cason

Dear Governor Sununu:
I am writing this letter in support of Commissioner John
Barrett's reappointment to the Federal Communications Commission.
Commissioner Barrett's nomination is supported by the entire New
Hampshire cable television industry as well as the rest of New
England. Commissioner Barrett has demonstarted an openness and
willingness to hear all sides of an issue. The sense of fairness
and competence that one experiences when meeting with
Commissioner Barrett is both unique and encouraging.
On behalf of the New Hampshire and New England cable
television industry, I respectfully urge that Commissioner John
Barrett be reappointed. We believe that he will continue to be
an effective team player in the Bush administration.
I hope to hear from you or your staff at your earliest
convenience.
Sincerely yours,

I have heard rumors regarding the possibility that the

North Litte Rock, Arkansas, might be relocated.
While I have not been able to confirm these rumors, I
would like to ask you to do everything in your power to
ensure that this does not happen.
I would appreciate your looking into this if possible. If
there is anything I can do at this end that will assist you,
please contact me.

Dear Governor Sununu:
This is to bring you up to date on the status of the Pacific Basin
Economic Council's International General Meeting. Since my letter
of 19 February apprising you of the invitation to President Bush to
participate via pre-recorded video tape, Prime Ministers Hawke and
Mulroney and President Acquino have agreed to be present either in
person (Acquino, Hawke) or via pre-recorded tape (Mulroney).
President Roh is awaiting the reply of President Bush.
I understand that the official letter of invitation from Ray
Johnson was sent to David Demerest's office sometime last week.
Once again, I appreciate anything you can do to help this along.

Dear Mr. Sununu:
Winnipesaukee Flagship Corporation would like to invite you, your
wife and family to attend and participate in a celebration honoring the
50th anniversary of the launching of the S.S. MOUNT WASHINGTON II, now
known as the M/S MOUNT WASHINGTON. Ceremonies are planned for 8:00AM on
Saturday, August 11, 1990 at Weirs Beach, NH.
We appreciate the time that you have given us over the past years during
your tenure as Governor or New Hampshire, and sincerely hope that you will
be able to join us once again.
As Chief of Staff, I know that you are close to the President's schedule
and, therefore, have taken the liberty of enclosing a copy of a letter we
have sent to President and Mrs. Bush, inviting them to join us on August
11. As you may recall, they were aboard the MOUNT WASHINGTON on July 4,
1985, following the Bristol, NH Fourth of July parade in which they
participated. We would very much like to have them return once again,
this time as our President and First Lady.
We look forward to having you and your family aboard with us this coming
August.
Sincerely,
Robert J% Cole

Dear John:
I can't thank you enough for taking time to
come to Delaware and making a speech at our
Engineers' Week Banquet. I think I have heard
more favorable comments about your speech than
any speech given by a "politician" in Delaware
in recent years. I was so caught up by it, I
almost forgot that I am a member of the class
(lawyers) that was part of your target. Maybe
it comes from being a Governor for five years,
but I have to agree with your conclusions.
You guys continue to do an outstanding job
in Washington, and everyone I spoke to was very
impressed by how at ease and in command you
were. It seems to be going very well, we are
all happy for you.
Once again, my sincerest appreciation and
best wishes for continued success.
Sincerely yours,
Mise

White House
Pensylvania Avenue
Washington, DC
RE: E.P.A. Docket #A-89-01
Room M 1500
Air Docket (LE-131)
Dear Mr. Sununu:
Our town is one of fifteen similar communities in New Hampshire
that has a small incinerator which is used to dispose of
household trash. The incinerator generates less than one ton of
ash from approximately four tons of trash per day.
Present regulations apply to two categories: Incinerators that
handle under 50 tons of trash per day and those that handle over
50 tons per day. The proposed changes in the regulations call
incinerators handling under 250 tons per day "small" but would
affect all incinerators no matter how much trash they handle. We
can understand the need to apply stricter air emission standards
to the larger incinerators, but there must be a cutoff point
below which small incinerators such as ours and the majority of
the other small incinerators in our state would be exempt from
the proposed standards.
Perhaps a cutoff point of less that 25 tons per day (or even 10
tons per day) would be appropriate. Ours and most other
incinerators in this state already have afterburners that cleanse
the smoke before it reaches the atmosphere. If you combine this
with the low trash-per-day tonnage, it is not possible that our
incinerators are contributing to air pollution any more than wood
stoves, automobile exhaust, forest fires, volcanic eruptions,
etc.
The proposed air emission standards and controls will pose such a
financial burden to our taxpayers that it might well end our
local solid waste management capability. The only people that
will be able to comply with the new regulations are the mass-burn
waste-to-energy facilities who can afford it. It appears that
the Environmental Protection Agency is pursuing a policy of
forcing small communities such as ours to shut down and ship our
trash to the mass-burn facilities. Just who is the EPA trying to
protect, anyway?
In conclusion, we ask that you question the need for these new
regulations as they would apply to our small incinerators and
support an exemption status for incinerators that handle less
than 25 tons per day.
Should you have any questions or wish to discuss this very
critical impact on our overall solid waste management plan,
please contact us. Thank you in advance for your time and
support.
Sincerely,

Dear John:
I am writing to invite you to provide the luncheon address at my
biennial gathering of businessmen and women and community leaders
from Western Massachusetts on Wednesday, May 23rd at the Cannon
Caucus Room on Capitol Hill.
I was hoping you could provide a fifteen minute presentation
beginning at 12:30 pm with a question period to follow of about the
same duration. You are also welcome to join us for lunch just prior
to the presentation. Given the challenges confronting our nation,
this group would be interested in your views on the bright spots and
problems facing the economy. They would also be attentive to
whatever other topic you chose to discuss.
I have regularly sponsored a biennial "Issues Symposium" since my
first election to Congress and it has become one of the most eagerly
awaited events among my friends in Western Massachusetts. This is
the most important event on my official calendar and it is through
generous participation from distinguished guests like yourself that
have made it the success that it is.
I appreciate your consideration of this invitation and if you have
any questions or concerns, please feel free to let me know.
With my very best wishes and warm regards, I remain
Cordially yours,
J. Vilvio U. Conte
Member of Congress

WHITE HOUSE CONFERENCE ON LIBRARY AND INFORMATION SERVICES
February 22, 1990
The President
The White House
Washington, D.C. 20500
Dear Mr. President:
The White House Conference on Library and Information
Services, (WHCLIS), joins you and the Nation's Governors in
efforts to achieve National Education Goals and to dramatically
improve adult literacy in America by the year 2000.
The WHCLIS is dedicated to the improvement of:
Library and Information Services for Literacy,
Library and Information Services for Productivity,
and
Library and Information Services for Democracy.
In order to achieve the goals of the White House Conference
between now and July, 1991, all States of the Union, Territories,
the Indian Nation and the Federal Library Community are
conducting widespread pre-White House Conference Activities to
address and help set our Nation's Library and Information
Services policies for the next decade.
Thousands of delegates and observers will convene in
Washington, D.C. at the White House Conference in July, 1991 to
define program and policy recommendations necessary to improve
library and information services which will assist you, Congress,
and the Governors to achieve the National Education Goals.
The White House Conference Advisory Committee (WHCAC) has
adopted the attached resolution urging you and the National
Governors' Association Task Force on Education to endorse the
furtherance of Library and Information Services in its
activities.
1111 18th Street, N.W., Suite 302
Washington, D.C. 20036
(202) 254-5100
Library and Information Services are vital to the
achievement of the Nation's Education Goals and the improvement
of the literacy rate for all Americans by the year 2000, without
regard to race, ethnic background or geographic location.
We look forward to hearing from you and the Governors on how
best the White House Conference can proceed with its planning to
help achieve our mutual National Education Goals at the State and
National levels.
Thank you for your interest and consideration.
Sincerely,
Daniel H. Carter
Daniel H. Carter
Chairman
White House Conference Advisory Committee
