| just spoke with Tyler VVittkof ky,theP|0forHJGo.|confirmedthatDELlandDHHSw/ou|d|iketopartidpatetomorroxv
night. He said that w/ewould be welcome to participate.
He indicated there was one spot available on the panel, due to space on the stage, and asked ifvvecould have aD8Q
rep. since David Stanley, Brunswick County's health director, would already be on the panel from the public health side. I
thought Sheila Holman, DE(Xs assistant secretary for the Environment, would be appropriate for the panel. He also said
that it would be great if members of both agencies wished to be in the audience and that he would make arrangements
to have one of the moderators introduce the panelists and the special guests in the audience such as Danny Staley or
anyone else from DHHSand DEQ.
