The document is a request for reconsideration of denials of information requests about two climate reports under the Data Quality Act. It argues that the reports rely on computer models that perform poorly and fail tests of utility and objectivity. It also argues the denial reasons of the agencies do not match the facts and are attempts to avoid accountability under the Act. The request asks the recipient to note issues with the agencies' positions.
This document is a memo from William Perhach at the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) notifying CEQ staff of a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request received regarding communications about the 2002 Climate Action Report. The FOIA request seeks copies of correspondence, memos, notes and other records regarding CEQ communications about the report, as well as records CEQ obtained from other agencies related to the report.

This letter from David Eppler, CEO of Cleco Corporation, expresses continued support for UtiliTree Carbon Company and its tree planting initiative UtiliTree 12. The letter cites several reasons for support, including making the new voluntary Power Partners program with the Department of Energy a success, providing evidence to President Bush of industry actions, and helping the power generation sector maintain its role in climate change policy debates. Eppler believes the UtiliTree 12 projects provide substantial carbon management and other environmental benefits at a reasonable cost while avoiding issues like leakage, permanence, and monitoring associated with other programs. For these reasons, Eppler encourages other electric power companies to support UtiliTree 12 as well.

This document is an email from Samuel A. Thernstrom to several White House officials forwarding a draft letter to the editor of the New York Times regarding a recent article on climate change. The letter, signed by James L. Connaughton, argues that the 2002 U.S. Climate Action Report is consistent with previous statements by the Bush Administration acknowledging rising temperatures and greenhouse gases but also recognizing significant scientific uncertainties remain. It maintains the Administration is properly addressing climate change through programs to reduce emissions and increased research funding.
This document is a phone message from John Stanton, a reporter at Air Daily, leaving his contact information including phone number 202-775-0240 ext 313 and fax number for Samuel A.

This document is an email from Khary Cauthen to Dana Perino, Elizabeth Stolpe, and Lisa Harrison at EPA regarding changes the White House made to an EPA report on the environment. The White House edited out a long section on risks from climate change and whittled it down to a few noncommittal paragraphs. The White House also deleted conclusions about the likely human contribution to global warming from a 2001 National Research Council report and a reference to a 1999 study showing temperatures had risen sharply in the last decade. In their place, the administration added a reference to a new study partly funded by the oil industry questioning that conclusion.

Declining global temperatures between 1000-1900 have been linked to deforestation by scientists at Lawrence Livermore Laboratory. Using computer models, researchers found areas that experienced the most cooling had faced the heaviest deforestation. This challenges arguments that planting trees can effectively offset global warming caused by greenhouse gases.

The document is a press briefing transcript where the White House Press Secretary discusses the President's views on climate change and the recent UN report. The Press Secretary notes the report found considerable uncertainty around climate science and predictions. The President has outlined an approach to reduce greenhouse gas growth while allowing economic growth through technology investments and more climate research. The President does not support the Kyoto Treaty and sees his alternative plan as better addressing the issues without harming the economy.
This document is an email from Larisa Dobriansky thanking Samuel Thernstrom for forwarding an email from Michael Catanzaro about comments from Senator James Inhofe supporting voluntary climate initiatives over government mandates. Inhofe says voluntary programs show that mandatory caps on carbon dioxide emissions are unnecessary. He is concerned voluntary programs could lead to future regulation but industry should keep arrangements private to avoid future regulation benefiting large companies.
Michael Catanzaro emailed Myron Bell asking to move their meeting scheduled for the next day from its original time to 4:00 PM. The brief email provided the reason for the requested change in time as well as an expression of gratitude for accommodating the change.
The document discusses concerns that a title in the Senate energy bill could resurrect aspects of the Kyoto Protocol. Specifically, Title XI calls for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and reestablishing a climate czar position in the White House, which mirrors Kyoto's goals. Conservatives worry this would set up lobbying for slow growth energy policies under the guise of the White House. The grassroots movement against Kyoto may need to reactivate to remove these provisions from the bill.
The document is an email reminder about the Competitive Enterprise Institute's "Mardi Gras in May" Dinner taking place that evening at the Capital Hilton hotel located at the corner of 16th and K Streets in Washington DC. Attendees are asked to respond if they cannot make it. The email was sent by Isaac Post, the Marketing and Development Manager of the Competitive Enterprise Institute, and provides his contact information.
This document is a forwarded email containing testimony from the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) regarding power plant emissions regulations. The testimony argues that the Bush administration's Clear Skies initiative does not go far enough in reducing emissions and will result in thousands of premature deaths annually. The document then examines NRDC's claims about the health impacts of particulate matter and mercury emissions from power plants, finding their arguments about mortality increases to be implausible. It concludes that the economic costs of further regulation may do more harm than good to public health.
OSTP and EPA have denied requests for reconsideration of two climate reports under the Data Quality Act by claiming the reports were not "information" subject to the Act. CEI argues this is incorrect and an attempt to avoid accountability. Specifically, OSTP claimed its National Climate Assessment was produced by an advisory committee rather than OSTP, while EPA claimed it merely published the Climate Action Report on behalf of the State Department. However, CEI provides documentation that OSTP and EPA were in fact responsible for producing the reports. If accepted, the agencies' arguments would allow them to convene committees or ask other agencies to publish information in order to exempt it from data quality requirements.
This document is a request for reconsideration of denials of climate report data quality appeals submitted to CEQ and OMB. It summarizes that the National Climate Assessment and Climate Action Report rely on computer models that perform more poorly than random numbers. It argues the agencies denied the appeals through invalid arguments to avoid accountability under the Data Quality Act. The requests aim to establish that agencies cannot exempt influential reports from quality requirements by having other groups produce the reports.
The document is an email forwarding a request for correction regarding the EPA's Climate Action Report. An organization submitted a petition under the Information Quality Act arguing that parts of the report contained inaccurate information. The petition and two supporting documents are attached to the email.

TEXT:
Please see the attached. I apologize for the volume (appx 33 pgs.), but
these two documents are required to illustrate the ruses that OSTP and EPA
have undertaken to shield the National Assessment on Climate Change and
Climate Action Report, respectively, from the Data Quality Act's
requirements.
our reasoning, in short though exhaustively documented in our Requests and
Appeals, is that NACC relies on climate projections based upon computer
models that have been demonstrated to perform more poorly than a table of
random numbers. This is not in dispute, as when presented with this
assertion the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration CNOAA)
confirmed it through its own tests. CAR relies upon NACC for its Chapter
6.
Both documents, therefore, fail the FDQA test of ???utility???, for
reasons CEI amply documented. Arguably, as OSTP???s NACC production team
was aware of this reality prior to producing the report, their intentional
selection of two outlying models with such unacceptable performance
satisfies the lack of ???objectivity??? threshold. Both Appeals are
pending at the respective agencies.
OSTP denied CEI???s Request on the grounds that NACC is not
???information??? subject to FACA because OSTP did not in fact produce
NACC, but it is the product of a FACA committee. While for the instant
purposes the truthfulness of that claim is not an issue, please note that
a substantial record of OSTP and subservient offices acknowledge that this
is not accurate for, numerous reasons, again well documented by CEI in its
Request and Appeal. For now please merely note that the statute
authorizing NACC asserts that two agencies subservient to OSTP for
