Does an e-mail obtained by JunkScience.com reveal a bribe (is there another word?) to EPA employees for helping Harvard get a lucrative Kuwaiti contract?

The e-mail is below.

For background:

• Petros Koutrakis is a co-author of the infamous June 2017 New England Journal of Medicine study that we asked the Office of Research Integrity to investigate for research misconduct.
• Robert Devlin is one of the EPA scientists behind the agency’s illegal air pollution experiments on humans.

BTW, the e-mail says the scheme is ‘very confidential’… so… SHHHHHH.
