PRESIDENT OBAMA
The White House

President Obama,
Information has been sent to the office of the President, Senators, Congressman, Federal government agencies and many others. I am tried of the fraud, corruption, the violation of federal laws, the ill responsible actions of government agencies not protecting the families of America, tried of mis-using tax payer money, formal complaints with government covered up, the good olde boy program, and the list goes on.
I am a disabled veteran and my company Environmental Toxins Solutions Inc., (ETSI) is classified as a Service Disabled Veteran Own Small Business (SDVOSB). I have patent and patent pendings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) that provides permanent solutions to animal waste, chicken litter, green waste, and other waste. Also I have developed the first truly permanent solution for the Superfund Program/CERCLA. I was even awarded The ON THE BRINK award for 2007 for Oklahoma, for the first permanent solution for the superfund program.
In the first meeting with EPA one of the Project Managers (PM) she would help access a $40 million dollar grant she new of. We were very pleased with the outcome of the first meeting. After about two weeks of many phone calls and Emails, they (EPA) found out that we wanted to fix the most complex part of Tar Creek. The mine was and still is releasing thousands, if not millions of gallons of Arsenic laden water, to downstream impoundments like Grand Lake and other waters and impoundments in Eastern Oklahoma. Another meeting,EPA,which included four of our team, a Senator Staffer, EPA representatives, a representative for the people of Tar Creek (who took the attendance of the meeting). When we first walked in the meeting room a PM and another man walked out of the EPA office and we all introduced ourselves. The other man was dressed in EPA attire and introduced himself as EPA, but did not have any business cards, but that he was EPA. We were impressed that he took extensive notes during the meeting about my process and how to fix the superfund site. After the meeting was concluded, I was meeting with the team of ETSI, it was brought to our attention that this EPA person (taking notes) was not an EPA employee, but is the lead scientist for the prime contractor working for EPA at the Tar Creek Superfund Site. We filed a formal complaint with the Chairman of the EPW (Environmental and Public Works) in Washington DC. Evidently, the EPW contacted the EPA because they (EPA) requested a meeting with us. EPA apologized for their actions, for bringing in what I would call a corporate mole, and presented us with a disc that they said they spent millions of dollars on the underground mine workings and would hope that this would make up for their ill responsible actions and help define the problems they were experiencing. He (PM) also stated they (EPA) would help with a grant to start work and we (ETSI) would need to go to Colorado the following week to receive the money. Between the time to leave for the grant money, Katrina occurred. We understand the importance of a natural disaster and critical life saving responses that needed to happen, so we understood the suspension of the meeting. The people along the Gulf Coast needed immediate help and needed to come first.
I was awarded the ON THE Brink award at the Innovators of the Year for 2007 for developing the first permanent solution for the superfund program. At our awards table were several distinguished people. One of those, was a US Senator Staffer from Oklahoma. I bring this to your attention, because of the comments and statements from that night. During the awards ceremony the Senator’s Staffer told us that we have the full support of his office. This permanent innovative solution has been long overdue, especially for the people at the Tar Creek Superfund Site, those of Oklahoma, and this nation. We were told that we had to complete three steps and that if we encounter any resistance in completing those three steps, he would suppress that resistance. Since that date we have met with nothing but roadblocks. All phone calls and letters have apparently fallen on deaf ears
I have been trying to obtain the support of the EPA in proving and providing this first truly permanent solution for the nation’s number one superfund site TAR CREEK SUPERFUND SITE (TCSS), the national Superfund Program and have met nothing but roadblocks in the process. I have the documents to prove everything I have said and say in this and other letters and information. I have seen people saying we have money for you (both government and private (with government and political connections) just to keep me from writing letters of this nature. Government officials have been moved or removed from this site and now they (EPA) acts like nothing has ever happened and the new officials say they know nothing about the previous actions. I have a team that can resolve superfund sites,
Tar Creek is the most critical and complex superfund site in America. Some of the underground mines are as big as football fields and there are millions of gallons of Arsenic laden water being discharged to the environment every day. The mines under cut roads , houses, and many other surface structures, including rail. People are being moved in a buyout, the air borne and water discharge and leaching will go to many places, besides just this superfund site, and will not stop after the buyout. Many diseases and illness has occurred and many of those leaving will follow shorten life span path or even death. I have a permanent solution for the mines, water, chat (mining Waste), Air Borne particles and the returning of the land to a safe an useful purpose, along with creating signcant jobs and significant jobs at over 1000 locations at other superfund site in America. EPA says that it will be another 20 to 30 Years before EPA will begin to start final remediation.
Government says that there are mandated contracts of the Disabled Veterans and EPA says they gave those SDVOSB contracts to their Prime Contractors (PC). The Prime Contractors keep filling holes with untreated hazardous waste and moving hazardous waste to further contaminated areas unknown, because that is the only way they can dispose of the CERCLA waste, but the PC still receives Billions of taxpayer dollars for this illegal work operations and EPA keeps on supporting.
I know that you said you would clean up and open up government. See anything wrong with the above information. I hope that you keep your word and will do something about this very soon LIVES are at stake. Hope your family is not living like many of those here in Oklahoma and at other superfund sites across America, because if they are, I think you would be doing the same thing I am. Questioning government and informing people. If you need other information please contact me or you can GOOGLE me on the internet. I have been very vocal about TCSS, EPA, government contracts and government people.
President Obama, after listening to your inauguration speech, I feel that in order to fix corruption, you first have to know about the corruption. I have written and talked to a number of politicians,government agencies, I can assure you they do not want this information to reach you, but I know you will do something about this letter, when you receive this letter. If you should decide to investigate, I would appreciate a response ASAP if you choose to investigate. I will not release this letter to the news media, post to the internet, send to others and allow additional time for you to look into this letter, if I have a quick response. If I do not have a quick response from you to investigation, I will assume that you are not going to address this letter and the corruption.
SEMPER FI
