[CED/CD/EAT] FW: [EXT]Soil sample request for Alan Sonfist

[Martin, Edward C - (ecmartin)]

CEDs,

Is this something we could do?  Or, more appropriate, is this something we should do?  Does anyone know this artist and what he will do with our soil?

Dear Dean Burgess,

I’m writing to you on behalf of the environmental artist Alan Sonfist. He is preparing an educational exhibition that will explore the significance of soil within our country. The exhibition will travel to science, natural history, and art museums. 

Sonfist would appreciate if your office could send topsoil samples from around Arizona, or if you could refer us to the appropriate person to do so. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you for your time,
Sarah Lindberg
