SUBJECT
Chairman Bob Potter has requested that members of the Committee, and the Finance Committee, be provided with separate and advance information on his upcoming presentation to the Board. Attached are: (1) the Board book overview statement; (2) graphs which indicate current attitude trends; (3) highlighted budget book pages to indicate Finance Committee recommendations for funding a Board-approved program.
At the March meeting of the Executive Committee, following a presentation by Bob Nightengale and Mike Vaughn, Ogilvy & Mather which was positively received, Mr. Potter asked for an indication of preference for a national or regional roll-out of the campaign, if approved by the Board. By show of hands, the Executive Committee overwhelmingly supported a national roll-out.
The presentation at the Boca meeting will be Thursday morning, April 15. The Executive Committee will be asked to recommend approval of the program at its Thursday afternoon meeting. The Board will vote on the program Friday. The presentation agenda for Thursday is:

PUBLIC PERCEPTION COMMITTEE Report on Public Outreach
Proposed Renewal of the Advertising Program
BACKGROUND
Action continues on outreach to all ten assigned audiences. An updated report will be made to the Board at the April meeting.
Latest Public Opinion Information According to the latest information from the Roper polls, public opinion about the chemical industry among "the Influentials" is beginning to shift. Attached to this report are throe graphs which indicate the positive movement. n The Influentials" are defined as people who have college or some college education, $50,090 or more annual income and are active in their community. This jS the audience targeted for advertising outreach in 1991-92 and also recommended as a focus by the Wirthlin Group and Ogilvy & Mather. The data - already published for 1991, plus unpublished information for 1992 made available to CMA by a member company - illustrates a leveling off of the decline in favorable opinion in 1991 and an improving picture for 1992. The Roper organization, in its report - The Public Pulse _ said of the 91* data, "the fact that the negative views of such trend-setting groups as the Influentials have peaked may be an indication that the industry's Responsible Care program is beginning to have an effect where it can do the most good." The unpublished 1992 data shows more than just "negative views" which have "peaked". Views of the Inf luentials moved from ri,lX positive to 50% positive. And, for the first time since 1987, the views of Influentials have reversed a downward trend and are now leading total public opinion upward. While the opinion shifts indicated by the Roper polls are probably "jello-1 ike" in their firmness, the movement gives sore confidence that the public is willing to listen to industry messages.

Because CMA did not pay for the Roper polling, nor control the questions, it cannot be said with any certainty that industry outreach efforts produced the change. But outreach efforts did coincide with the change.
A fourth graph attached to this report was directly related to advertising research conducted for CMA. It measured attitudes of the target audience (defined in almost the exact terms Roper uses for the Influentials) before CMA advertising began in 1991 as a baseline and again nine months into the campaign.
Changes in opinion were measured across twelve points and compared with changes for three other industries also engaged in advertising. On the numerical graph attitudes about the chemical industry improved across all but one of the twelve points, and improved at a much greater pace than the other industries on seven of the twelve.
In both the Roper polls, and in the CMA polls conducted by Millward/Brown, attitudes of the general public - not plant communities - were measured. Advertising was the key outreach element used to reach this broader public.
Next Generation Advertising Proposals
Following dismissal of Chiat/Day as CMA's advertising agency for outreach to the general public, the Public Perception Committee approved a new approach to guide the next generation of advertising.
o Research was conducted to develop an outreach program grounded in response to public; "values" related to the industry. The Wirthlj.n Group was hired to conduct an in-depth study and develop a values-based strategy.
Wirthlin reported to the Board at its January meeting. He recommended a strategy which builds on the publics* perceived industry strengths of research, innovation and technology and on the leadership imperative the public grants the industry - the ability to make positive change.
Wirthlin recommended communicating about specific technological or research capabilities, products or processes that beneficially affect the environment, health and safetv.

Page 3
o Ogilvy & Mather, the new advertising agency selected, has been working with Virthlin and CMA's advertising task group to develop a campaign which responds to this strategy. The Perception Committee met in New York in February to review progress and Chairman Bob Potter updated the Executive Committee at its March meeting.
- Three campaign options, all of which Virthlin said had potential to meet the strategy, have been tested. Results of the testing, which will identify the most effective concept, will be reviewed at the Boca Raton Board meeting.
The testing methodology used also allows adjustments to be made within individual ads to fine-tune them. This "fine-tuning" will not be complete, but presenters will explain what has been learned.
The media plan will also be reviewed. Ogilvy & Mather say the industrys1 relatively small budget (as compared to that of the Committee for Energy Awareness or the American Plastics Council) is sufficient to reach the assigned objective and the audience targeted.
FUNDING FOR OUTREACH
Assuming program approval by the Board, the Finance Committee has recommended that funding for a $10 million program be provided by using $8 million already collected for outreach but which will remain unspent by May 30, with the remaining $2 million to be raised by a FY 1993/94 special assessment.
ACTION REQUESTED
The Public Outreach plan will be presented to the Board Thursday, April 15 and brought forward for Executive Committee approval that afternoon and for Board approval Friday, April 16.

PROPOSED BUDGET FOR THE FISCAL YEAR . BEGINNING JUNE 1. 1993
I. RECOMMENDATIONS ON FY 3993/94 PROPOSED BUDGET:
A. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approval of a General Operations expense budget for the fiscal year beginning June 1. 1993 of S28.605.800.
COMMENTS: Pages no. 2. 3 and 4 in this tab present summaries of the program "adjustments and budget recommendations supporting the above indicated expendi ture level.
B. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approval of the schedule of membership fees as set forth below wmcn is increased by 57. from the previous year.

*Up to, but not more than the membership fee which would be obtained by multiplying the minimum amount of the next higher chemical sales bracket by the percentage factor applicable to the higher bracket and not less than S10.500.
ANALYSIS: As set forth in Tab #20 of this workbook, the above fee schedule should result in dues of S23.887.500 and combined with other revenue, a FY 1993/94 General Operations budget that is break-even.
C. ASSOCIATION RESERVES: In reviewing the Association's financial position, the Finance
Committee recommended and the Executive Committee agreed that General Operating Re serves. which are projected at a level of S5.6 million or 19.8% of the General Operat* ing Budget, represented an acceptable reserve balance for the 1993/94 fiscal year
even though it represents a level lower than the heretofore established floor of 25% of Operating Expenses. The committee noted that due to uncertainties of the new administration and the constraints on available funds, it may become necessary for the Finance Committee to address these reserves and/or focus on other interim special
funding efforts as issues develop.
D. ` RECOMMENDED ACTION: The Finance Committee recoqnized that proposals for continuation
of the Fimhc'uutreach Program are being developed for presentation at the April
meeting of the Board of Directors. Funding is dependent on the program recommended and approved. However, assuming a program approval, the Finance Committee recommends that funding be provided by applying all or part, of the accumulated special assess
ment excess of S8.0 million to reduce the amount of the special assessment otherwise required to fund the program. In other words a $10.0 million program, for example, would be funded with S8.0 million from previously accumulated funds already collected from the membership and the remaining S2.0 million would be funded by a FY 1993/94 special assessment.

SUMMARY OF REVENUE AND EXPENSES
BY CMA DEPARTMENT AND PROGRAM RECOMMENDED PY 16*S/*6 BUDCET
GENERAL COMMENTS:
Th propoifd FY l*3/6 budgtt, pmantid in Coiunn 6, indicates total General Operations Eaparttii of *20,605.600 which does not include th# "yet to be determined" laval of Public Outreach Program E>pmas for FY l*93/q4, For tha currant yaar a* shown in Column 5 total expenaas of *33,630,600 ara projected consist ing of Ganaral Ooarations expenses of *20,211,600 and Public OutraaeM Program expenditures of *5,Ala,000.
TMa proposed FY l93/94 budget is the result of vary strict budget guidelines which required each operating division to provide as nuch support as possible for new and/or increased activities by raprioritizing within a flat base-level budget, and saparata raquasts which ware considered significant and which could not ba undertaken within tha base-level guidelines. Tha program activity raquasts which ware not included in the base-level budget, as presented In Column A, totaled $7,579,100, and are presented in Tab *21 of this book.
In order to fund the recommended FY 1993/*6 Canaral Operating expense budget, tha membership fee schedule for FY l**3/96 is increased S'/, as discussed in Tab *20 of tha workbook. Tha Public Outreach Program for FY 193/6 would be funded at the level as approved at the April meeting of the Board of Directors. Funding would ba provided by first using tha *8.0 million in unspent Public Outreach assessment funds which have accumulated due to program delays with tha remaining $2.0 million of an anticipated *10.0 million progran to ba raised by a FY 1*93/96 spacial assessment.
A summary by dapartmant fellows:
REGULATORY AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT:
The Regulatory Affairs Dapartmant is increased to *6,729,000 from the currant year projection of <6,350,000, mainly due to increased activity relating to Toxics Use Reduction; Super fund; Pollution Prevention; end implementation of Responsible Caret1 Codes. Two staff, one supporting clean air and one supporting RCRA advocacy, as were previously considered by tha Board are added.
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT RELATIONS DEPARTMENT:
The Federal Government Relations Department is increased to *A,275,200 from the current year projection of *3,*84,200 due to modest inflationary increase in staff expenses and increased federal legislative consult ing and coalitioning expanses which are essential to address the challenges of Toxics Use Reduction.
STATE AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT:
The State Affairs Department is increased to *2,510,600 from the current year projection of $2,277,500 to provide resources necessary to implement some portions of new activities approved by the Board in September 19*2. One manager and one support staff ara added to partially implement the reeommendations of the Board ad hoc Committee on State Affairs.
OFFICE OF GENERAL COUNSEL:
The Office of General Counsel is increased to *3,905,700 from the current yeer projection of *3,826.600 and one attorney is added in support of Toxics Use Reduction and related health issues.
COMMUNICATIONS DEPARTMENT:
The Communications Department as presented here is broken down into advocacy vs. outreach and services, Media Connunication remaining the principal area to continue to provide a strong advocacy emphasis.
Media Communications, as presented here, is decreased to *1,763,600 from the current year projection of *1,635.000 due to elimination of the one-time budgeted expense of *216,800 relating to th* Wirthlin member survey. A manager of advocacy communications is added to support media and coalitioning activities.
Targeted Issue and Member Communication is increased to *799,100 from the current year projection of $765,700.
The Public Outreach Program continues to be separately funded through a conbination of use of carryforward reserves of *8.0 million and special assessment as required. Estimated amounts, subject to final review and approval are presented under tab R13, page 75.
RESPONSIBLE CARE* DEPARTMENT:
Although currently operating as a division managed by the Communications Department, the Responsible Care'9' oversight and coordination activities are presented here, and throughout this book, as a separate functional department. The Responsible Care*- Department is increased to 11,206,000 from the current year projection of *1,134,600. Two exempt and two support staff are added to bring the progran up to a functional level as an operating department.
TECHNICAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT:
The Technical Services Department supports the CHEMTREC Canter functions and the CHEMSTAR activities. The department is almost entirely self-funded through CHEhTFEC registration feas charged to nonmember users of CHEHTREC? services and the CHEMSTAR overhead reimbursement revenue paid by CHEMSTAR Panels and Business Councils. The separately funded CHEMSTAR expenses which may approach *70 million are not reflected on the opposite page, nor are the costs related to the 61 CHEMSTAR Division staff supported by these sepa rately funded activities. The CHfMSTAR activities are presented in Tabs R16-10.
UNALLOCATED MANAGEMENT AND SUPPORT:
The overall support programs remain unchanged. publication clerk are budoeteri at *4.to62.70Q.
The departmental expenses including the addition of one
REVENUE:
An increase in the FY 19*3/9*, fee schedule of S/. as set forth in Tab $20 of this book is anticipated to pro vide a break-even budget and dues revenue of *23,867,500. CHEMTRECT registration fees at *500 per partici pant and investment end other revenue provide additional funds yielding estimated total General Operations revenue of $26,605,600.
RESERVES:
By the end of the current FY 190-/05 the budoet projects based on the results in Column 3 that the Associa tion will hold General Operating reserves of *5,64*,700 and accumulated funds from the delayed start UPS of the Public Outreach Program of *8.022,100.
