Randy,
My deepest apologies. I sent the request to another licensing manager. With a /2/, I
wasinformed I was at the wrong plant.
With my schedule as a week in, week out, Im not sure where Im at some days. Hoping
with few days off for Thanksgiving, it will help me better center my current location and
where Im heading next, River Bend.
Please let me know if you have questions or concerns.
Again, sorry for the inconvenience.
