John Scott Duarte: “I would ask that you work with the EPA and see if we can get the same attainment standards and compliance standards set…”

That is a complete mischaracterization of what I just said. I am not being insensitive, and also----

a legitimate player like yourself is going to look at alerts and, hey, don't buy these things from Peru, don't buy these things from Russia.

This is regulation by imagination. This is the worst waste of Federal resources that I can imagine.

Thanks to the hard work of Reps. Duarte and Costa, whose wood product industry in California has experienced many of these importation issues.
