I personally and professionally appreciate the strong support that you and Secretary Hitt have shown to the Aiken County Bridgestone Off Road Radial Plant/Team since our Announcement. You both have done a tremendous job preparing our state for a strong future. I am proud for my family and I to call South Carolina our home and look forward to my retirement here. We will work with your office to create an opportunity, if your schedule allows, for my replacement, Mr. Ron Brooks, to come to Columbia and meet with you in the near future. If I can ever be of service to you or the State please do not hesitate to contact me. Sincerely, Steve Brooks Chief Project Officer Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations Aiken County Off Road Radial Plant
