To Whom It May Concern:

This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:

2. all inspection reports from USEPA for both of these plants’ labs from January 1, 2004 to July 29, 2016. “All inspection reports” necessarily include (but are not limited to) “proficiency reports” and reports from the “quality assurance program.”
3. all documentation and communication written as followups to inspections of the facilities listed above.
4. Documents sufficient to show all rules and regulations governing the quality of the water that IEPA requires municipalities to abide by
5. Documents sufficient to show all rules and regulations governing the testing of water before it is released to a municipality that the EPA requires municipalities to abide by

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.
