1 am making this delegation as a Colonial "responsible official" and "responsible corporate officer' as those
terms are defined in 40 CFR 970.2 and 40 CFR 5122.22(a)(1), respectfully.
40 CFR §70.2 provides, in part, as follows:
Responsible official means one of the following:
(1) For a corporation: a president, secretary, treasurer, or vice-president of the corporation in charge of
a principal business function, or any other person who performs similar policy or decision -making
functions for the corporation, or a duly authorized representative of such person if the representative is
responsible for the overall operation of one or more manufacturing, production, oroperating facilities
applying for or subject to a permit and either.
(i) The facilities employ more than 250 persons or have gross annual sales or expenditures
exceeding $25 million (in second quarter 1980 dollars); or
(ii) The delegation of authority to such representatives is approved in advance by the permitting
authority,
40 CFR §122.22(a)(1) provides as follows:
Sec. 12222 Signatories to permit applications and reports .
(a) Applications. All permit applications shall be signed as follows:
(1) For a corporation. By a responsible corporate officer. For the purpose of this section, a responsible
corporate officer means: (i) A president, secretary, treasurer, or vice-president of the corporation in
charge of a principal business function, or any other person who performs similar policy- or decision -
making functions for the corporation, or (ii) the manager of one or more manufacturing, production, or

the operation of the regulated facility including having the explicit or implicit duty of making major capital

information for permit application requirements; and where authority to sign documents has been
assigned or delegated to the manager in accordance with corporate procedures.
While I do not have the title of president, secretary, treasurer or vice-president, I should nevertheless be
considered a responsible official under §70.2 and a responsible corporate officer under §122.22(a)(1)(i) due to
the fact that I perform similar policy -or decision -making functions for the corporation. I serve as a vital member
on various Colonial policy/decision making teams, including Colonial's Leadership Team. My responsibilities'
include day -today oversight over Colonial's operations system -wide. Reporting to me are Colonial's three
