Seymour June 12, 1989 ABERDEEN PLANT EARNS ENVIRONMENTAL AWARD Congratulations to Vinyl Department employees and the employees in their support groups (Maintenance, Process and Project Engineering, Laboratory, Environmental, Safety)! Aberdeen A employees were awarded the Vinyl Institute (a division of The Society of The Plastics Industry, Inc.) Environmental Achievement Award in recognition of outstanding performance for 1988 in the FVC category. Vista Chemical Company's plant in Aberdeen received the first place award for the second consecutive year in the three years the Vinyl Institute has been awarding these. Debs Gamblin, Senior Vice President, Operations, has sent us a note of congratulations along with Joe Ledvina, Corporate Director of Environmental Activities. These are posted on the bulletin boards, too. This award was presented to Vista for having a performance index of 100 or a perfect score calculated by a formula developed by the Vinyl Institute. This perfect score means that during the entire year 1988 the Aberdeen Plant had no: - relief valve discharges - rupture disc releases - residual VCM exceedances on slurry - reactor opening loss exceedances - manual vents - incinerator bypasses This achievement is certainly a quality performance every day by all of those involved in preventing VCM releases and in operating and maintaining equipment to ensure minimum emissions possible throughout the year. Congratulations! This is an award you can all be proud of and the achievement benefits our employees and the Aberdeen community. "W- R. W. Seymour Plant Manager rah cc: THH, RDG, RRS VAB.0001173014
