In answer to your memo of November 18, regarding Monsanto responsibilities for shipment of VCM in Monsanto's name, the information requested is listed below:
1. Monsanto Springfield assumed responsibility for VCM shipments from Dow on January 1, 1969, Monsanto Springfield, on January 3, 1969, issued a procedure for Dow to follow on all shipments made in the name of Monsanto. This procedure covered the following:
A. Preparation of Bill of Lading and proper certification, B. Joint track useage at Dow to avoid car demurrage, C. Maximum loading of tank cars, D. Trip leasing of cars shipped to Monsanto customers, E. Rail routings to use. F. Return empty car instructions, G. Minor/Major car repairs, H. Freight bill instructiohs.
The cars are being placarded as required.
2. I have requested that Dow put on each B/L the following:
"IN THE EVENT OF ANY EMERGENCY CONCERNING THE CHEMICALS IN THIS SHIPMENT, CALL COLLECT (413)-788-6911. AFTER HOURS, WEEKENDS, HOLIDAYS, CALL COLLECT (413)-788-7306."
This is the wording recommended by the M. C, A, for its Chemical Transportation Emergency Center at Washington, D. C. The telephone listed is the Springfield, Mass, plant location.
G. R. Sido of Corporate Distribution has been advised to notify the Emergency Center (Chemtrec) in Washington of the above for Monsanto VCM car action.

3. In case of emergencies, the contacts for action subsequent to notification of the Springfield Plant per above are:
R. W. Bueker/J. A, Tierney (Springfield) - for action St. Louis and east to Springfield.
W. T, Anderson (Texas City) - for action south of St. Louis to Dow plants. (MOPAC AND South)
Home phones: R, W, Bueker - (413) -- 567--3575
J. A. Tierney- (413)-732-1579
W, T. Anderson-(713)-S45-7127
4. No emergency response has been discussed with Dow, Under terms of sale, Dow has no responsibility after car is moved from their siding. I am fairly sure that Dow would render assistance if requested to do so as they have offered to do in past incidents.
