Dear Mr. Heylinger:

     This letter is sent on behalf of our client, ElkCorp (“ElkCorp” or the “Company”), in response to the comments of the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Staff”) set forth in their letter of January 31, 2007 to Mr. Mark Gordon in respect of the above-referenced filings.

     We respectfully inform the Staff that on February 9, 2007, affiliates of The Carlyle Group terminated the tender offer (the “Carlyle Tender Offer”) in response to which the above-referenced Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 (as amended, the “Schedule 14D-9”) was filed. In addition, following the termination of the Company’s merger

agreement with respect to the Carlyle Tender Offer, ElkCorp filed Amendment No. 8 to the Schedule 14D-9 reflecting such termination. Accordingly, we acknowledge the Staff’s comments but believe that it is neither necessary nor appropriate for ElkCorp to respond to such comments at this time or further amend the Schedule 14D-9 in response to such comments.

The Company has authorized us to acknowledge the foregoing on its behalf.
