Subject: I would appreciate a photo of an FCC unit

Mr. Bill Day:

I am a retired chemical engineer seeking to obtain a good color photo of a large FCC unit that just includes the Reactor and Regenerator. I am writing an article describing FCC units that will be included in the Citizendium. I have the article entitled "Tour Guidebook of the Valero Houston Refinery " at http://texasiof.ces.utexas.edu/texasshowcase/pdfs/tourbooks/tb_valero.pdf and I decided to contact you.

Citizendium is a non-profit, open source, free online encyclopedia. Volunteer editors, including university professors and other experts, review all articles before they receive final approval. Volunteer authors, like myself, must be vetted and approved before they can contribute any articles and all authors must use their real names. You may visit the Citizendium at http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Main_Page to learn more.

If you would, as a public educational service, send me the photo I seek, we would be most grateful. We would prefer the photo be released under a Creative Commons (CC) license ( see http://creativecommons.org/license/).

Your photo will be viewable worldwide and it will be conspicuously labeled "CC Photo:Valero Energy Corporation". If at any time in the future you request the photo's removal, such a request will be honored.

Assuming that permission is granted, I will need to receive an email signed by the person in authority to do so stating that permission is granted under a Creative Commons (CC) license.

Thanking you for your consideration, I am
