12 A 321 Pebble Valley Drive, St. Louis,
13 Missouri, 63141-8039.
14 Q Okay. Are you currently employed?
15 A Self employed.
16 Q In what capacity?
17 A Technical consultant.
18 Q Again, my name is Dale Hausman, I
19 represent the Travelers Indemnity Company, that's an
20 insurance company, in litigation against Reynolds
21 Metals. Just a few guidelines for this deposition
22 First of all, because we're making
23 both the paper and oral record, if you could wait
24 for me to finish all of my questions before you
25 answer, I'd appreciate that. That way we're not

WATER PCB-SD0000063855
William Papageorge Protected Material
9
1 talking over each other at the same time.
2 A I'll try.
3 Q Okay. And also if you could give
4 audible responses to all the questions, say yes or
5 no rather than a nod or a gesture or something
6 similar.
7 Any questions that you can't
8 understand, that you don't understand or can't hear,
9 please feel free to ask me to rephrase them. We can
10 also have them read back from the, from the record.
11 Also -
12 A You used the word "understanding."
13 Sometimes I have an understanding that may not match
14 your understanding or your intent.
15 Q ! Right.
16 A So my answer may not quite fit the
17 question.
18 Q Feel free to ask for any
19 clarification, because we do want to make sure that
20 you do understand the question that you're answering 21 so we have a truthful testimony on the record.
22 A Very good.
23 Q And finally, if there are any breaks
24 that you need for any reason, just let me know and
25 I'll be happy to accommodate that. Okay?

4 A I had discussions with my attorney.
5 Q And that's Ms. Rutter? 6 A Yes.
7 Q Okay. Did you review any documents in
8 preparation for this deposition?
9 A Yes.
10 Q Did you review documents that referred
11 to the Reynolds Metals Company?
12 A Yes .
13 Q All right. When did you meet with 14 your counsel?
15 A Yesterday afternoon.
16 Q Okay. How long was this meeting?
17 A From noon until about 4 or 5 o'clock.
18 as I remember. Most of the afternoon, all of the
19 afternoon, really.
20 Q Okay. Have you spoken with any l
21 lawyers representing the Reynolds Metals Company?
22 A No .
23 Q Have you recently spoken with any 24 employees of the Reynolds Metals Company?

1 Q Have you given prior deposition 2 testimony before?
3 A Yes.
4 Q Approximately how many occasions? 5 A I have never kept score. It's over a
6 couple dozen times.
7 Q Did that include any insurance 8 coverage litigations, to your knowledge?
9 A Yes .
10 Q And of the dozens or so of depositions 11 that you' ve given, about how many of those were
12 insurance coverage actions, if you know?
13 A I don't recall the exact number, but
14 it's less than half a dozen.
15 Q And of those less than half a dozen 16 insurance coverage actions in which you've given
17 testimony , did those involve user!3 of Monsanto
18 fluids?
19 A Some of them, yes.
20 Q Do you remember the names of any of 21 those actions?
22 A No, I don't.
23 Q All right. To your recollection, did 24 any of the cases in which you've given testimony,
25 any of the insurance coverage cases involve the use
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063858
William Papageorge Protected Material
12
1 of Monsanto heat transfer fluids?
2 A I don't recall the heat transfer fluid
3 associated with an insurance situation.
4 Q In any of these insurance cases in
5 which you've given testimony, have any of those
6 cases involved hydraulic fluids supplied by
7 Monsanto, to your recollection?
8 A I don't recall.
9 Q Same question for fluids to be used in 10 transformers and capacitors, any recollection of
11 that?
12 A I don't recall anything specific.
13 Q Okay. Have you given trial testimony
14 before?
15 A Yes .
16 Q Okay. And have any of the occasions 17 in which you've given trial testimony been insurance
18 coverage actions?
19 A I don't recall any associated with
20 insurance coverage.
21 Q Okay. On how many occasions have you
22 given trial testimony?
23 A Between, less than half, less than a
24 dozen. Half a dozen to a dozen, somewhere in there.
25 Q Do you recall the nature of the cases
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063859
William Papageorge Protected Material
13
1 in which you've given trial testimony?
2 A I think I can recall some of them.
3 Q Could you tell me that, please?
4 A There was a situation in which the
5 allegation was made that PCBs caused harm to mink in
6 mink ranches up in the northeast.
7 There was a situation in which the
8 dairy farmer claimed that the PCBs affected his
9 cattle herd and the health of his family.
10 There was a case in which the user of
11 a PCB fluid was informed by the regulatory agencies
12 to clean up, and his contention was that Monsanto
13 should participate in the expenses involved.
14 There was another case, let me see.
15 There were three cases that I recall where workers
16 claimed that their health was affected because they
17 were involved with PCB materials. That's all that
18 comes to mind at the moment. I'm sure I missed
19 something there, but --
20 Q That's okay. The case you just
21 described where the user of the PCB fluid was
22 informed by the regulator to clean up, do you know
23 who that user was, do you recall?
24 A Yes.
25 Q What was that company?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063860
William Papageorge Protected Material
14
1 A Stroh? Gosh, I forgot the official, `
2 it's a metal casting process under the name of the
3 Stroh, just like the brewery family up in Milwaukee,
4 Wisconsin.
5 Q Did that case involve heat transfer
6 fluids?
7 A No.
8 Q What type of fluids?
9 A Hydraulic fluids.
10 Q All right. I'd like to sort of get a
11 brief review of your both educational and
12 professional background, so if you could first start
13 by just briefly describing degrees that you received
14 in college or post-graduate?
15 A I received a Bachelor of Science in
16 chemical engineering and the Master of Science in
17 chemical engineering.
18 Q And where were those from?
19 A Washington University in St. Louis.
20 Q Both of them? Both of them?
21 A Yes.
22 Q Okay. And what years did you receive
23 those degrees?
24 A The Bachelor's Degree was awarded in
25 1943; the Master's Degree in 1947.

15
1 Q Any other formal education beyond
2 that?
3 A Help me with the word "formal." Is
4 this courses for credit towards some degree?
5 Q Yes. Yes.
6 A No.
7 Q Okay. Have you taken courses not
8 designed for a degree, i.e. professional oriented
9 courses ?
10 A Yes.
11 Q Okay. Is that something thatyou've
12 done over the course of your career?
13 A Correct.
14 Q All right. When did you first, when
15 were you first employed by Monsanto?
16 A November of 1951.
17 Q Can you tell me brieflywhat you did
18 between 1947 when you received your Master's and
19 November of '51 when you started with Monsanto?
20 A 1947?
21 Q '47.
22 A I worked for the Phillips Petroleum
23 Company in Bartlesville, Oklahoma.
24 Q What was the nature of your job there?
25 A For half of that period I worked in
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063862
William Papageorge Protected Material
16
1 the Research Department working with oil wells,
2 drilling fluids and, predominantly in what was
3 called secondary recovery. This is the use of water
4 or air pressure to push the residual oil out of
5 wells that appear to be spent.
6 The latter half of that period I was
7 in their Refinery Design Department doing
8 calculations to help design equipment for refining
9 petroleum.
10 Q Did you have any worker safety
11 responsibilities in that position?
12 A No. Other than the equipment that we
13 eventually end up proposing had to consider the,
14 what I'm going to call the normal safety
15 considerations.
16 Q And in that position did you have any
17 pollution prevention responsibilities?
18 A Well, we practiced the preventions
19 that was common at that point in time. We did not
20 design equipment that would deliberately release
21 materials to the environment.
22 Q So did that work include preventing
23 spills of petroleum products onto the ground or into
24 the water?
25 A The intent was to prevent, yes.
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063863
William Papageorge Protected Material
17
1 Q Okay. In November of 1951 when you
2 began with Monsanto, what was your first position
3 there?
4 A The first position was similar to the
5 one I had just left at Phillips, designing equipment
6 to be used in the manufacture of chemicals, and the
7 initial assignment, of course, just picked up the
8 experience I had in distillation equipment.
9 Q Did that job have a title?
10 A Yes, as I remember, it's Process
11 Engineer, I've forgot if the word "Senior" was
12 attached to that. For sure Process Engineer.
13 Q And where did you do that work? Was
14 that St. Louis?
15 A In St. Louis, yes.
16 Q How long were you a Process Engineer?
17 A Oh, about three years.
18 Q As a Process Engineer did you design
19 equipment for the manufacture of heat transfer
20 medium fluids?
21 A No.
22 Q How about hydraulicfluids?
23 A No.
24 Q How about transformer or capacitor
25 fluids?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063864
William Papageorge Protected Material
18
1 A No.
2 Q Did you design any equipment at that
3 time for the manufacture of any fluids that
4 contained PCBs?
5 A No.
6 Q What were the nature of the chemicals
7 for which you designed machinery at that time?
8 A It was phthalic anhydride,
9 p-h-t-h-a-l-i-c a-n-h-y-d-r-i-d-e, which is a
10 material that is further processed to make what is
11 known as a family of plasticizers. These are
12 materials that are added to plastics to make them
13 pliable, flexible instead of brittle.
14 Q So is it correct that you were a
15 Process Engineer until 1954?
16 A Roughly so, yes, sir.
17 Q What did you do then?
18 A I was assigned to work in an
19 operation, a department as we call them at the
20 plant, which made these plasticizers I just referred
21 to, under the guidance of a Senior Supervisor. It
22 was a sort of a training, learning exposure.
23 Q And what was the nature of the
24 activities that you were trained in at that point?
25 A Well, it was the supervising of the
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063865
William Papageorge Protected Material
19
1 foremen who in turn supervised the workers, making
2 sure that the scheduled production was being met,
3 that the quality of the material met the
4 specifications , that all the necessary coaching and
5 training of the workers took place, safety meetings
6 and the like.
7 Q And your role was what, your role was
8 the training function, overseeing the training
9 function?
10 A That's just part of it.
11 Q Okay. And how long did you do that?
12 A About a year.
13 Q Okay. What did you do after that?
14 A I was given my own producing unit
15 instead of being a trainee.
16 Q And that was for plasticizers still?
17 A No, this was a, a production unit that
18 made chemicals that are eventually used in, as
19 rubber additives, or in the manufacture of rubber
20 additives.
21 Q
22 PCBs ?
Did any of those chemicals contain
23 A No.
24 Q
25 unit? i
And your role was oversight of that
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063866
William Papageorge Protected Material
20
1 A Yeah, I'll use the word, I was boss o'f
2 the unit.
3 Q Where was that, is that still in St.
4 Louis?
5 A The same plant, still in St. Louis.
6 Q Okay. How long did you do that?
7 A Couple years, as best I recall.
8 Q Do you know where that takes us? Does
9 that get us up to 1960?
10 A I think we're about '57 or
11 thereabouts
12 Q Okay. And what did you do then?
13 A I was transferred then to the plant's,
14 excuse me, Maintenance Department, Engineering and
15 Maintenance Department as a Maintenance Supervisor.
16 Q
17 correct?
And that's still in St. Louis,
18 A Yes, same plant.
19 Q How long did you do that?
20 A Couple years.
21 Q Did that plant at that time, from 1957
22 for the next couple years, did that plant make any
23 PCB containing fluids?
24 A Yes. The plant blended ingredients
25 that resulted in the PCB containing material.

WATER PCB-SD0000063867
William Papageorge Protected Material
21
1 Q When you say "that resulted in PCB
2 containing material," what types of materials would
3 that be?
4 A Primarily the hydraulic fluid
5 products.
6 Q As a Maintenance Supervisor, did you 7 have responsibility for preventing releases of these
8 hydraulic fluids onto the ground or into the
9 waterways ?
10 A No.
11 Q Was there somebody at that time that
12 had that responsibility?
13 A Oh, yes. Many people did.
14 Q Okay. Was there a, a department or a
15 title of a person who had that type of
16 responsibility to prevent these releases?
17 A Not at that time.
18 Q When you say "many people," who do you
19 refer to?
20 A Every person at the plant who had some
21 supervisory responsibilities, from the Chief
22 Operator to the Foreman to the Assistant Supervisor
23 to the Supervisor, the Superintendent, all the way
24 to the Plant Manager where the buck stops has that
25 as part of their responsibility, and the theme at
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063868
William Papageorge Protected Material
22
1 the time was respect all materials you handle. All
2
of them.
Because even the water can be scalding
3 hot.
4 Q At the time, in the late '50s, was
5 there a general awareness in Monsanto that releasing
6 hydraulic fluids into waterways or onto the soil
7 could result in damage to the water or soil?
8 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
9 foundation.
10 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Can you answer that?
11 A Well, the thought wasn't limited just
12 to hydraulic fluids. Any material that was handled
13 in the plant should not get into the waterways.
14 Q All right.
15 A That was the objective.
16 Q Is this objective something that you
17 were told in your role?
18
A
Well, yes.
It was like breathing.
19 Q All right.
20 A It was, it was part of the discussion,
21 part of the orientation, part of the safety
22 meetings, it was covered all over and over again.
23 Q Okay. Is it fair to say that that
24 objective of not releasing any of these materials
25 onto the ground or waterways was known by all
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063869
William Papageorge Protected Material
23
1 employees throughout the plant?
2 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
3 foundation.
4 A I cannot speak for all employees,
5 because some of them were in clerical positions and
6 not near chemicals, so those employees that were
7 involved with these materials were certainly
8 coached, tutored, trained, constantly reminded.
9 Q (By Mr. Hausman) All right. And as
10 far as worker safety issues, were there precautions, i
11 we're talking in the late 1950s, for being exposed
12 to hydraulic fluids?
13 A Nothing other than the usual
14 precautions of don't get it on your skin, wash your
15 hands at the first chance you get. Don't breathe
16 fumes, if they're bad, don't go into the area; if
17 you have to, use a respirator. If your shoes are
18 soaked in the material, get a new pair of shoes.
19 Don't keep wearing them. That type of message was
20 always preached, if you will.
21 Q And those were common procedures at
22 the time?
23 A For almost all the companies.
24 Q In your role as Maintenance
25 Supervisor, did you have any responsibilities for
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063870
William Papageorge Protected Material
24
1 providing information to customers?
2 A No.
3 Q All right. Was there somebody in the
4 plant at the time who had that responsibility?
5 A In the plant there were people who, on
6 occasion, would be asked by the marketing
7 representatives to participate in discussions with
8 customers. This was looked upon as a resource to
9 the, to the Monsanto representative out in the
10 marketing field, that if a question came up that he
11 didn't feel he knew enough about to respond
12 properly, he could call some individuals at the
13 plant and get the assistance.
14 Q All right. Again, if you know the
15 answer to this, do you know whether, again, the time
16 period of 1957, late '50s, Monsanto issued any
17 warnings for the dangers or hazards of any of its
18 substances to its customers?
19 A Certainly, where it was appropriate,
20 yes .
21 Q Do you know when a, specific warnings
22 of hazards were issued with regard to hydraulic
23 fluids at that time?
24 A I recall some paragraphs in the
25 brochures that were available that would describe
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063871
William Papageorge Protected Material
25
1 the product and its uses, and am also aware that the
2 product label had a message regarding exposure to
3 the material.
4 Q Were these brochures and labels
5 something you saw at the time that you were in this
6 position as Maintenance Supervisor?
7 A I'm sorry?
8
Q
Letme repeat that.
Were these
9 brochures and labels something that you saw in your
10 position as Maintenance Supervisor?
11 A Yes. Oh, in fact I consulted them
12 from my own work force, if they run across this
13 material, they had to know this.
14 Q Do you have any awareness in this
15 period of the late '50s of whether Monsanto sold any
16 of these hydraulic fluids that were made at the
17 plant to the Reynolds Metals Company?
18 A I just don't recall the dates. Late
19 '50s, I don't remember that.
20 Q Okay. After you were the Maintenance
21 Supervisor, what was your next position?
22 A I was made the Superintendent of the
23 Maintenance Department.
24 Q And how long did you do that?
25 A About, until about 1960? Two or three
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063872
William Papageorge Protected Material
26
1 years.
2 Q And did you have any responsibilities
3 for customer relations in that job?
4 A No.
5 Q Did you have any responsibility for
6 the formulation of worker safety precautions and the
7 handling of various materials?
8 A I was a participant whenever a program
9 would be developed or when an existing program would
10 be reviewed and revised if necessary. Yes, I would
11 participate.
12 Q What would be the nature of your
13 participation?
14 A Well, it was sort of offering my
15 personal impressions regarding the proposed approach
16 to teaching the work force on how to control leakage
17 and how to control exposure, and I would, being a
18 member of the Maintenance Department, would take the
19 position of the mechanic who breaks into a pipeline
20 and that this material spills out all over his
21 coveralls, that kind of, so I kind of try to fulfill
22 that role, when the program would be developed under
23 what do you do under these conditions.
24 Q All right. Did the plant itself use
25 Monsanto's own hydraulic fluids in its machinery?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
l{ WATER PCB-SD0000063873
William Papageorge Protected Material
27
1 A Oh, yes.
2 Q And were there procedures to prevent
3 the leakage of this machinery?
4 A Oh, yes.
5 Q Were there written procedures?
6 A Ijm sorry?
7 Q Were there written procedures? 1
8 A Some of the equipment had written
9 procedures, but most of the principles of
10 controlling leakage and loss were common to most
11 liquid handling systems under pressure, under heat,
12 and there are some practices that evolved through
13 time on how to drain a system before you disconnect
14 and what to do with the drained material, and it
15 depends on whether you can reuse it or it must be
16 discarded, how to clean up a spill on a concrete
17 floor, that type of subject would be --
18 Q Were there specific procedures on how
19 to dispose of hydraulic fluids?
20 A Were there?
21 Q Yes . 22 A When you say "specific," are you
23 referring specific to the fluid or specific
24 procedure on where to go in the plant?
25 Q Fair enough, the latter, but let me
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063874
William Papageorge Protected Material
28
1 refine that question. Were there any prohibitions
2 at the time for, against disposing of hydraulic
3 fluid into waterways?
4 A Oh, yes. Yes.
5 Q And that was prohibited, let's be
6 clear?
7 MR. HARCKHAM: Just for clarification,
8 what time period are you asking him about?
9 MR. HAUSMAN: When Mr. Papageorge was
10 supervisor of the Maintenance Department, I think it
11 was still in the late 1950s.
12 A 59, up to 1960 or so, yes.
13 Q (By Mr. Hausman) And what were the
14 reasons for that prohibition?
15 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
16 foundation.
17 Q (By Mr. Hausman) If you know.
18 A The plant is located in metropolitan
19 St. Louis area. Its waste waters enter the
20 metropolitan sewage treatment system. Introducing
21 many chemicals into that waste could upset the
22 treatment plant, which uses bacteria to decompose
23 the waste. So one of the reasons for it being a,
24 I'm going to call it a no-no, is you didn't want to
25 upset the treatment plant of the, this area.
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063875
William Papageorge Protected Material
29
1 Q Okay.
2 A And then there's the desire not to,
3 not to put large amounts of chemicals into the
4 sewer. Now, the occasional drip that is hosed down
5 and gets into that water, that's extremely hard to
6 control. It's like the oil spot on your garage
7 floor. But even then we would discourage, where
8 possible, this hosing until at least an attempt was
9 made to pick up the fluid that could be picked up,
10 either with rags or sawdust, some means, that you
11 take that solid material and you take it to a proper
12 landfill for disposal.
13 Q When you say "proper landfill," what
14 do you mean?
15 MS. RUTTER: Objection, lack of
16 foundation.
17 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Again, if you know.
18 A Well, the intent, and you got to keep
19 in mind that it's an evolving kind of situation. At
20 that time, the landfill that was selected would be
21 one that was not near any waterway, there was no
22 evidence that there was underground water that's
23 moving through, picking up contaminants and taking
24 them where they would be undesirable.
25 Q As the Maintenance Superintendent, did
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063876
William Papageorge Protected Material
30
1 you have responsibilities for the disposal of
2 fluids?
3 A No.
4 Q Was that somebody in your department
5 or a different department?
6 A Different department.
7 Q What was that department?
8 A What was that department?
9 Q Yeah.
10 A There was a function in the plant
11 which was a sort of a group to assist the
12 Manufacturing Departments with the movement of
13 material, whether it be the raw material going to
14 their operation or the finished product leaving the
15 operation, getting rid of its trash, supplying it
16 with steam and water and electricity, sort of
17 assisting the Operating Department. That is the
18 department that arranged for the trash and waste
19 chemical pickup services.
20 Q Okay. Now, let me ask you this. We
21 spoke earlier of brochures that went to customers
22 and warning labels. In the time period around 1960,
23 as a general practice, would the brochures for
24 products that Monsanto sold include information on
25 proper disposal methods for those fluids?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063877
William Papageorge Protected Material
31
1 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
2 foundation.
3 MS. RUTTERS I join.
4 A At that time?
5
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Yes.
6 A I don't recall any example of a
7 proposed disposal method other than for some
8 chemicals there were words to the effect, "Be
9 careful," but they didn't ever reach the point, "You
10 got to take it to ABC Landfill" or anything like
11 that.
12
Q
Okay. All right.
After you were
13 Superintendent of the Maintenance Department, what
14 did you do?
15 A I was then made a Technical Services
16 Superintendent, which was really the, the group that
17 I had originally served in as a Process Engineer, I
18 was now supervising engineers and technicians who
19 were assigned technical problems to solve, and help
20 the manufacturing people wherever the manufacturing
21 people would perceive a problem of any kind.
22 Q Okay. This was at the St. Louis plant 23
24 A Still, yes.
25 Q Okay. And what were the years that
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063878
William Papageorge Protected Material
32
1 you were in that position?
2 A I think that lasted a couple three
3 years, '62 or '63? My memory's not real sharp on
4 these dates, so it's --
5 Q I understand.
6 A That's decades ago.
7
Q
I understand. In thatposition
did
j
8 you have any customer services responsibilities?
9 A Not as a responsibility, per se, but
10 as a, an assist to a fellow Monsanto salesman, yeah,
11 I would participate.
12 Q What type of assistance ingeneral
13 would you provide to a salesman?
14 A Oh, I can't think of a specific at the
15 moment, but it would fall under the engineering
16 assignment that I had where someone may say, "I'm
17 proposing to put in, say, a pump. What kind of pump
18 do you folks use?" And, well, we'd share that
19 information with them and then we'd tell them, "For
20 us, this works. It may not work for you." Then
21 we'd, we'd participate in that kind of thing.
22 Q All right. Do you recall providing
23 any assistance to customers through the salesperson
24 on construction of heat transfer machinery?
25 A I don't recall any.
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063879
1 |Q
William Papageorge Protected Material
33 -
Do you recall providing any assistance
2 to customers through the salespeople on recommending
3 pumps for hydraulic systems?
4 A My recollection is not that good. I
5 can't remember.
6 Q Okay. What did you do after you were
7 Technical Services Superintendent?
8 A I was then assigned as a General
9 Superintendent of this department I described
10 earlier that assisted the production people with
11 delivery of materials, the utilities, trash hauling.
12 Q And what were the years that you did
13 that?
14 A '62 and 3, somewhere in there.
15 Q Until when?
16 A I'm sorry?
17 Q Until when?
18 A 1962 and 1963 period.
19 Q So you did that for a short amount of
20 time?
21 A Couple of years, yes.
22 Q Did you have any increased
23 responsibility from the Technical Services
24 Superintendent for Customer Services?
25 A Well, since I was involved with the
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063880
William Papageorge Protected Material
34
1 shipping function, on occasion, and this didn't
2 happen often, I would get involved with delivery of
3 the product to the customer in the right container
4 or the right vehicle or on time, I would get
5 involved with that kind of thing, but I had a, a
6 good staff to handle the majority of those cases. I
7 would only get involved in their absence or if there
8 was some problem that they couldn't handle.
9 Q Okay. Did you have any involvement in
10 communicating any potential hazards to the customer?
11 A No.
12 Q Okay. After that position as General
13 Superintendent, what did you do?
14 A I was made a General Superintendent of
15 Manufacturing at the Monsanto Plant located in,
16 across the river from St. Louis.
17 Q Is that the Sauget Plant?
18 A The Sauget Plant.
19 Q Okay. And did you have any customer
20 services responsibilities in that position?
21 A Again, on occasion, I would be
22 involved with a, a dialogue with a customer and its
23 representatives regarding one of the products that
24 my particular group was manufacturing.
25 Q Would that dialogue include advice on
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063881
William Papageorge Protected Material
35
1 any potential hazards of the product?
2 A I don't remember specific, but that's
3 a very appropriate subject, yes.
4 Q And what were the nature of the, what
5 was the nature of the products that your group was
6 manufacturing?
7 A There were several, I can't propose to
8 say I remember all of them, but I do remember we
9 made, in our group we made phenol, something known
10 as carbolic acid, we made a sodium phenate, which is
11 the salt of that carbolic acid --
12 Q Well, let me ask you this. Were any
13 of those products PCB containing fluids?
14 A No .
15 Q
16 position?
Okay. How long were you in that
17 A Until 1965.
18 Q And what did you do after that?
19 A I was assigned to the Plant Manager
20 in, at the plant in, Monsanto's plant in Anniston,
21 Alabama.
22 Q And did that plant manufacture any PCB
23 containing fluids?
24 A Yes.
25 - Q Okay. What fluids did they
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063882
William Papageorge Protected Material
36
1 manufacture?
2 A There was a series of PCB mixtures
3 that we at Monsanto referred to as Aroclors,
4 A-r-o-c-l-o-r, followed by a four digit number to
5 designate the type of mixture in that particular
6 batch of material that was made.
7 Q Were those, did, let me start over.
8 Did those mixtures include heat
9 transfer medium fluids?
10 A Some of the Aroclor mixtures were
11 marketed under the heat transfer brand.
12 Q And in your role as Plant Manager, did
13 you have any responsibility for overseeing any
14 research into potential hazards of these Aroclors?
15 A Research into it?
16 Q Yes .
17 A No.
18 Q
19 plant?
Was there such a function at that
20 A Not at the plant.
21 Q Was there a function in the Monsanto
22 corporate umbrella?
23 A Yes.
24 Q And where did that take place?
25 A That was Monsanto's Central Medical
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063883
William Papageorge Protected Material
37
1 Department, located in St. Louis.
2 Q Did that Central Medical Department,
3 to your knowledge, create reports on hazards of
4 Aroclors ?
5 A Yes.
6 Q And as a Plant Manager in Anniston,
7 did you have occasion to see such reports?
8 A Oh, yes.
9 Q Did you receive those as a matter of
10 course ?
11 A Yes.
12 Q And as the Plant Manager at Anniston,
13 did you have, again, customer services
14 responsibilities?
15 A On occasion.
16 Q What was the nature ofyour
17 responsibilities there?
18 A It would be varied. As I indicated
19 earlier, sometimes it had to do with the shipment of
20 the finished product. There were times when a
21 customer would want to visit our plant and see how
22 we handled things and what kinds of equipment we
23 used and, in terms of the routine as well as the
24 safety equipment. So we would be more than happy to
25 share what we had with them, and that happened
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063884
William Papageorge Protected Material
38
1 fairly frequently.
2 Q Mm-hmm. Did anybody at the Anniston
3 Plant provide advice on types of machinery that
4 customers could use for the Aroclors?
5 MS. RUTTER ; Objection, overbroad,
6 lack of foundation.
7 MR. HARCKHAM: Same objection.
8 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Do you understand
9 the question or do you need me to rephrase that?
10 A When you say "types of machinery," I'm
11 thinking of pumps and instruments, you mean, to
12 control and all of that?
13 Q Sure.
14 A Well, the plant was not in a position
15 to give good advice regarding that because they
16 didn't know enough about the customer's operation to
17 do that. We, at best we could just say, "Here's
18 what we use under these conditions."
19 Q All right. Did the plant in Anniston
20 provide any advice on ways to operate a heat
21 transfer medium system that used Aroclors?
22 A We would tell them how, how our heat
23 transfer system worked, we'd even point it to them,
24 but that didn't mean his system was anything like
25 ours, what was expected of it and so on.
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063885
William Papageorge Protected Material
39
1 Q So beyond showing what Anniston had, `
2 there wasn't a consulting role on heat transfer
3 medium machinery?
4 A No, we didn't feel we were qualified
5 to do that.
6 Q Now, as a general practice at
7 Anniston, would somebody at the plant advise
8 customers of hazards of Aroclors?
9 MR. HARCKHAM: Are you talking about
10 when he was Plant Manager?
11 Q (By Mr. Hausman) That's right.
12 A I hesitate because I don't know all of
13 the conversations my staff had with customers.
14 Q Okay.
15 A It wouldn't surprise me ifsomebody
16 did come up, they would share with the customer what
17 they knew and what they did.
18 Q Well, on the occasions where you spoke
19 with customers -- let me, let me ask the question
20 first. Were there occasions when you spoke with
21 customers, first of all?
22
A
Yes, there
were.
23 Q Okay. And on thoseoccasions were
24 there times when you would communicate hazards,
25 potential hazards of Aroclors?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063886
William Papageorge Protected Material
40
1 A Yes.
2 Q And would that be similar to the
3 information that you, that you would learn in the
4 reports that were prepared by the Central Medical
5 Department?
6 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, vague and
7 ambiguous.
8 MS. RUTTER: I join.
9 A My comments were based on my personal
10 observations, experience at the plant, as well as
11 the reports that Central Medical Department would
12 submit.
13 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Okay. Fair enough.
14 Okay. How long were you the Plant Manager at
15 Anniston?
16 A Until the end of 1969.
17 Q Okay. What did you do after that?
18 A I was appointed as Manager,
19 Environmental Control reporting to the unit in St.
20 Louis that was responsible for the marketing of
21 PCBs .
22 MR. HARCKHAM: Just, off the record
23 for a second, if we're getting to a new subject, if
24 we could just take a minute break or two?
25 MR. HAUSMAN: Okay. Let's go off the
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063887
William Papageorge Protected Material
41
1 record.
2 (A brief recess was held at this
3 time.)
4 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Okay, Mr.
5 Papageorge, when you were the Manager of
6 Environmental Control, where did you work out of?
7 A Out of St. Louis.
8 Q So you came back to St. Louis around
9 that time?
10 A Yes, I did.
11 Q
12 location?
Was that at a plant or at a corporate
13 A It was at the corporate headquarters
14 of Monsanto.
15 Q Was the Manager of Environmental
16 Control a newly formed position?
17 A Yes .
18 Q Were you the first person to hold that
19 position?
20 A Yes.
21 Q Were you ever told why that position
22 was created?
23 A Yes.
24 Q And what were you told?
25 A There was an issue related to PCBs and
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063888
William Papageorge Protected Material
42
1 their presence in the environment in surprising
2 samples. Unexpected presence. The issue was being
3 addressed by university laboratories, government
4 agencies, some industries, and it became a situation
5 where so much was going on so quickly that the,
6 Monsanto decided they better have somebody to serve
7 as a focal point, if you will, to try to keep up
8 with what was going on not only within Monsanto, but
9 with its customers, with the representatives of the
10 governmental entities, with other producers of PCBs.
11 So my role was to try to keep up to
12 date with all new developments and share that
13 information with anybody what could use it, could
14 contribute. So I saw myself as really someone who
15 left, who tried to have the left hand know what the
16 right was doing, if you will.
17 Q In your role, did you specifically -
18 let me start that over.
19 In your role did you have direct
20 interactions with customers?
21 A Yes.
22 Q Did you meet withcustomers?
23 A Yes.
24 Q All right. Did you have occasion to
25 make visits to customers' facilities?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063889
William Papageorge Protected Material
43
1 A On occasion, yes.
2 Q How often would you do that?
3 A I find it hard to describe the
4 frequency. I recall my first summer on the
5 assignment, I made a concerted tour of the big users
6 of PCBs, which were primarily the electrical
7 equipment manufacturers, and the rest of the time it
8 was really on an invited as need basis, when I would
9 be invited to attend and participate in discussions
10 and plant tours and the like.
11 Q Okay. Was Reynolds Metals Company one
12 of the big users?
13 A They were a, I have a hard time
14 comparing, they were not as big, say, as General
15 Electric, but they were, a respectable amount of
16 material went to their operations.
17 Q Let me ask you this. Were they
18 included on the group of companies that you toured
19 initially? i i
20 A I, no.
'
21 Q They were not. Did you personally
22 ever travel to Massena, New York, to visit the
23 Reynolds Metals facility there?
24 A No.
25 Q At some point did Reyn -- let me start
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063890
William Papageorge Protected Material
44
1 again.
2 At some point did Monsanto make a
3 decision to discontinue the sale of PCB fluids?
4 A Yes.
5 Q Okay. Did you have a role in that
6 decision making?
7 A Yes.
8 Q What was the nature of your role?
9 Were you the one who made the decision, or did you
10 make a recommendation?
11 A I made a recommendation to a Vice
12 President of the company.
13 Q Did you have any reporting role to a
14 Vice President?
15 A Not direct.
16 Q Who did youreport to, ifanybody?
17 A At this point intime that we're
18 talking about?
19 Q Yes. Yes.
20 A At this point in time I reported to
21 the director of the business group that marketed
22 fluids for use in industry, whether they be in
23 electrical equipment or heating equipment or
24 hydraulic systems.
25 Q And did you have a staff as, when you
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063891
William Papageorge Protected Material
45
1 were the Manager of Environmental Control?
2 A No.
3 Q So you worked by yourself?
4 A Yes.
5 Q Did youcoordinate in that position
6 with any sales departments or sales personnel?
7 A Oh, yes.
8 Q Outside of sales was there a customer
9 services function in Monsanto?
10 A At Monsanto we had a group we referred
11 to as Customer Services, they were the people that
12 handled the details of the orders, the invoicing,
13 keeping score on when deliveries should be made and
14 how much and where to and who to send the bills to,
15 they got involved with these kinds of things.
16 Q Was sales a part of the Customer
17 Services function?
18 A No. They, the Customer Services
19 supported the sales.
20 Q And in your role as Manager of
21 Environmental Control, did you also work with the
22 Customer Services Department?
23 A Oh, yeah, occasionally, yes.
24 Q Okay. How long were you the Manager
25 of Environmental Control?

1 A I hesitate because my job didn't
2 change, but my title changed.
3 Q Okay. When did your title change?
4 A It was decided, I've got to smile as I
5 think back, that we really couldn't control the
6 environment but we could protect it, so my title was
7 changed to Manager, Environmental Protection, and
8 this happened about 1972, '71, '72?
9 Q Did your responsibilities change at
10 all?
11 A Not at that time.
12 Q Was there a time later when your
13 responsibilities as Manager, Environmental
14 Protection changed?
15 A There was a, in 1973, as best I
16 recall, Monsanto, through its subgroup called the
17 Monsanto Industrial Chemicals Company, appointed
18 individuals with a title of Managers of Product
19 Acceptability. So in '73 I was given that title. I
20 retained my responsibilities relating to PCBs and I
21 was assigned additional products.
22 Q And those were non-PCB products?
23 A Correct.
24 Q All right. And as you were assigned
25 these additional products, were, were you assigned
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063893
William Papageorge Protected Material
47
1 an environmental protection function with regard to
2 those products?
3 A That was one of the considerations.
4 Q Okay. What other considerations?
5 A Well, it had to do with the quality of
6 the material, the packaging, the proper labeling,
7 the proper shipping, the brochures that were issued,
8 the understanding of the field salesmen of this new
9 environmental world that was evolving around them.
10 So that the expression "Product Acceptability"
11 covered all of those and had to be acceptable not
12 only to the customer, but to society, to the
13 government, to Monsanto. Did it meet all of these
14 evolving new considerations.
15 Q Okay. When you retained this
16 additional responsibility as Manager of Product
17 Acceptability, did the products in that category
18 include products that were used to replace the PCB
19 containing fluids that were previously used?
20 A Yes.
21
Q
Okay.
Then how long were you the
22 Manager of Environmental Protection?
23 A From,Environmental Protection?
24 MR. HARCKHAM: Excuse me, I just don't
25 understand your question. Are you talking about the
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063894
William Papageorge Protected Material
48
1 1970 job or the '73 job?
2 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Yeah, let me step
3 back. Did you become in '73 the Manager of Product
4 Acceptability? Let me start over.
5 In 1973 when you assumed this duty as
6 Manager of Product Acceptability, did you retain
7 also your duties as Manager of Environmental
8 Protection?
9 A Yeah. The activities associated with
10 the Environmental Protection assignment as it
11 relates to PCBs were transferred under the Product
12 Acceptability title --
13 Q Okay.
14 A -- and spread out over all products,
15 not just PCBs.
16 Q Okay. I understand. So in 1973 your
17 title became Manager of Product Acceptability?
18 A Correct.
19 Q That was your sole title?
20 A I'm sorry?
21 Q That was your sole title, correct?
22 A Yes.
23 Q Okay. How long did you do that?
24 A I believe it was 1976.
25 Q Okay. What did you do then?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063895
William Papageorge Protected Material
49
1 A There was a Monsanto reorganization,
2 and the unit I was assigned to was the Monsanto
3 Intermediate Chemicals Company, and I was given the
4 assignment of Director of Environmental Operations
5 for that unit in Monsanto.
6 Q And what were intermediate chemicals?
7 A These are materials that are used by
8 our customers or within Monsanto to further process
9 to make a product that has a, either an obvious end
10 use or can be blended with other materials to make a
11 product that can be used in commerce that is
12 acceptable to somebody. So it's an intermediate
13 step in the evolution of a group of chemicals.
14 Q At the point in time when you became
15 the Director of Environmental Operations for the
16 Intermediate Chemical Company -
17 A At that point, is --
18 Q At that point in time, did any
19 Monsanto company make PCB containing fluids?
20 A Oh, yes.
21 Q Did the IntermediateChemicalCompany
22 make those fluids?
23 A No. That was over their --oh, the
24 Intermediate Chemicals?
25 Q Yes.
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063896
William Papageorge Protected Material
50
1 A No. That was over in the Industrial
2 Chemicals Group.
3 Q And you had no responsibilities for
4 the Industrial Chemicals at that time?
5 A At that time I entered, in the first
6 six months or so of that assignment, I was still
7 involved with PCBs, but in, let me think a bit. I'm
8 confusing the dates in my mind. Let me back off.
9 In February of 1976, I transferred my
10 PCB responsibilities to another person in Monsanto.
11 Q Who was that?
12 A J.C. Weber. I'm pretty sure it was
13 February, '76.
14 Q Is that with one B or two Bs?
15 A One B. So when I was appointed the
16 Director, Environmental Operations later that year,
17 I did not have the PCB responsibilities any longer.
18 Q Okay. That's really what I was
19 driving at. After February, 1976, did you have any
20 responsibilities at Monsanto for PCB fluids in any
21 sense ?
22 A Yes, I did. I still had some
23 responsibilities.
24 Q Okay. What responsibilities did you
25 retain?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063897
William Papageorge Protected Material
51
v
1 A I'm, of course, being Director,
2 Environmental Operations for this group, the plants
3 assigned to that group had to handle PCBs the way
4 we'd been telling everybody. So I wasn't completely
5 divorced from PCBs.
6 Q Okay. What were, what was the nature
7 of your responsibility with regard to PCBs when you
8 became the Director of Environmental Operations for
9 the Intermediate Chemical Company?
10 A In 1976, it was my responsibility to
11 see that all of the suggestions and regulations and
12 anything that related not only to PCBs but all
13 chemicals were being followed at the plants assigned
14 to this subgroup within Monsanto.
15 Q Okay.
16 A This had to do with more attention to
17 maintenance, incineration of PCBs in liquids, the
18 proper disposal of the solid wastes, the changeout
19 of fluids in the equipment where an alternate
20 material was available. You see, by 1976, a good
2 1 bit of that was in place. It was a way of
22 operating, become fairly routine.
23 Q Okay. Do you know whether after
24 February, 1976, when you came into this role,
25 whether Reynolds Metals Company was one of the
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063898
William Papageorge Protected Material
52
1 customers that you had continued involvement with
2 regard to PCBs over?
3 A In '76?
4 Q Yeah.
5 A I was notpersonally involved with
6 Reynolds at that point in time.
7 Q Do you know whether they fell into the
8 jurisdiction, as it were, of the Intermediate
9 Chemical Company, or do you know if that was with
10 the Industrial Chemicals Group?
11 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, vague,
12 ambiguous.
13 A It wouldhave to beIndustrial
14 Chemicals.
15 Q (By Mr. Hausman) So just to close
16 out, do you recall having any involvement after
17 February, 1976, with Reynolds Metals Company in any
18 way?
19 A That is true. I don't remember any.
20 Q You don't remember any, okay. Okay,
21 and how long were you in this position of Director
22 of Environmental Operations for the Intermediate
23 Chemical Company?
24 A 1983, '82? I retained the title of
25 Director, Environmental Operations, but then was
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063899
William Papageorge Protected Material
53
1 assigned to the Industrial Chemicals Company. There
2 was another reorganization where the Intermediate
3 Chemicals unit was dissolved.
4 Q Okay. And how long did you do this?
5 A Until 1985.
6 Q And at that period from '82 or '83 to
7 '85, do you have any recollection of being involved
8 in any way with the Reynolds Metals Company?
9 A No.
10 Q What did you do in 1985?
11 A Another reorganization took place and
12 I was made, I think the title was Manager of
13 Occupational Health for the Monsanto Company, which
14 was the new designation of a combination of all
15 these other subgroups that we talked about earlier.
16 Q Okay. Did this deal with occupational
17 health for Monsanto employees or for customers?
18 A Monsanto employees.
19 Q And how long did you do that?
20 A Until I retired at the end of 1986.
21 Q And you have been a consultant since
22 then?
23 A Yes.
24 Q Over the course of your employment
25 with Monsanto, were you a member of any trade
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063900
William Papageorge Protected Material
1 associations ?
54
2 A Can you help me with your expression
3 "trade association"?
4 Q Sure. Why don't I give you
5 categories. Were you a member of any organizations
6 that dealt with worker safety?
7 A No.
8 Q Were you a member of any organizations
9 that dealt with environmental matters?
10 A The reason I'm hesitating, I played
11 some role in these kinds of matters, but I didn't
12 picture myself as being a member. I was
13 representing Monsanto, which was the member.
14 Q Did you participate in any seminars of
15 any groups that dealt with environmental matters?
16 A Oh, yes. I wish I could remember them
17 all, but there were --
18 Q It's a large number?
19 A Yes. Yes.
20 Q Okay. Were you a member of any
21 chemical or chemical engineering societies?
22 A Yes.
23 Q Do you remember the names of those?
24 A I'm a member of the American Chemical
25 Society and the American Institute of Chemical
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063901
William Papageorge Protected Material
55
1 Engineers.
2 Q Okay. Have you ever been a member of
3 I think the American Industrial Hygiene Association?
4 A No.
5 Q Okay. When you were Manager of
6 Environmental Control and later Manager of
7 Environmental Protection and Manager of Product
8 Acceptability, those three positions, did you
9 receive trade publications on environmental issues?
10 MS. RUTTER: Objection to the
11 overbroad and vague form of the question.
12 A Yes, I did. I don't remember all
13 their titles now.
14 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Did you receive a
15 broad range of such publications?
16 A I have no way to measure the range.
17 MR. HARCKHAM: I'm just going to say,
18 I don't understand whether you're asking him whether
19 he received things throughout that period or at any
20 time during that period.
21 Q (By Mr. Hausman) My question was
22 broad enough to include both, I think.
23 A I would receive periodicals, some of
24 which I personally subscribed and some that were,
25 may have just arrived in the mail to me. I just
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063902
William Papageorge Protected Material
56
1 don't remember them all.
2 Q Did you receive similar periodicals
3 when you were the Plant Manager at Anniston,
4 Alabama?
5 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, vague and
6 ambiguous.
7 MS. RUTTER: I join.
8 A Any environmental periodicals when I
9 was Plant Manager?
10 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Yes. 11 A I don't remember any such thing
12 existing. I never saw anything then.
13 Q Okay. When you became the Manager, i
14 Environment al Control, did you take it upon yourself
15 to read the literature that dealt with health and
16 safety and PCBs ?
17 A That was a very important part of my
18 assignment, yes.
19 Q Okay. Do you recall reading 20 literature from as far back as the '40s and '50s on
21 PCB health and safety matters?
22 A Yes.
23 Q Okay. Let me ask to have marked as
24 Papageorge Exhibit No. la multipage document that
25 appears to be an excerpt of a larger document,
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063903
William Papageorge Protected Material
57 -
1 possibly a book, the first page has a page number o'f
2 1342 on it and Don D. Irish on the top, and it has a
3 Bates number of MONS 076165 through 170.
4 MR. HARCKHAM: Dale, was that all of
5 the document that was produced?
6 MR. HAUSMAN: Yes.
7 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
8 Papageorge 1 marked for identification by the court
9 reporter.)
10 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Mr. Papageorge, I
11 don't think you need to read the whole thing, I just
12 have a very few questions, and I'll point to one
13 passage.
14 First of all, do you recall ever
15 seeing a, a book or article by a Don D. Irish that
16 deals with, it appears to deal with cyclic
17 halogenated hydrocarbons?
18 A As I scan the document I see some
19 references to information here that I'm familiar
20 with. I don't at this point in time recall
2 1 specifically the name Irish, Don Irish. That
22 doesn't, I just don't remember that name.
23 Q Okay. So you don't recall seeing
24 either this passage or the book from which it's
25 taken before? That's what you have in front of you.
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063904
William Papageorge Protected Material
58
1 A It just doesn't look familiar to me.
2 Q Okay. If you look at the very first
3 page, the last paragraph which begins "Human
4 experience," do you see that paragraph?
5 A I see that.
6 Q Halfway through the paragraph there's
7 a sentence that reads, "Jones and Alden reported on
8 human cases working with chlorinated diphenyls.
9 They observed a typical acneform dermatitis among
10 workers handling this material." Do you see that
11 passage?
12 A I see that, yes.
13 Q Are chlorinated diphenyls the same as
14 chlorinated biphenyls?
15 A Yes.
16 Q Do you recall ever seeing a Jones and
17 Alden report on chlorinated diphenyls?
18 A I do not.
19 Q This condition that's described in
20 this document, the typical acne form dermatitis, are
21 you familiar with that condition being associated
22 with chlorinated diphenyls?
23 A I'm familiar with allegations made
24 that PCBs are associated with this skin condition.
25 Q Okay. Do you recall when you learned
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063905
William Papageorge Protected Material
59
1 of those allegations being made, what period in
2 time?
3 A As best I recall, it happened when I
4 was for sure at the Anniston Plant. For sure. I
5 believe I had heard some reference to this condition
6 because of another product that I was associated
7 with at the Krummrich Plant.
8 Q What was that product?
9 A That was chlorobenzenes. No, no.
10 It's nitrochlorobenzene. Wood treating chemicals.
11 And at that time there was some reference made to
12 the broad family of chlorinated hydrocarbons, and
13 there was a suggestion that the chlorinated
14 hydrocarbons Monsanto manufactured could fall into
15 that broad category. And that's the extent of my
16 memory, really. It was not a new subject, but I did
17 associate it with chlorinated hydrocarbons.
18 Q The Jones and Alden article report
19 that's referred to, if you see, there's a footnote
20 that appears to, it's a reference a date of 1936. 21 Were you aware, when you learned of these 22 allegations of acneform dermatitis, that they were
23 alleged as early as 1936?
24 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
25 foundation.
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063906
William Papageorge Protected Material
60
1 A I don't remember the exact year, but I
2 do remember being tutored by the Medical Department
3 about chloracne before World War II period. That's
4 as close as I can get date-wise.
5 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Okay. Just to be
6 clear, before the World War II refers to when the
7 allegations were made or when you were tutored?
8 A No, that was, I was tutored in 1970
9 about the past.
10 Q Okay.
11 A And the reference to this chloracne
12 situation was described to me as occurring in the
13 early '40s, late '30s, some, I don't remember the
14 dates, but it was before World War II. At least
15 that's my memory. That was my first exposure to
16 someone dating that information.
17 Q All right. Okay. You used the word
18 "allegations" in describing the acneform dermatitis
19 or chloracne condition.
20 A Yes.
21 Q Are you aware ofwhetherthose
22 allegations have been proven to be true with regard
23 to PCBs?
24 MS. RUTTERs Objection to the form of
25 the question to the extent it asks a non-medical
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063907
William Papageorge Protected Material
61
1 person to form a medical conclusion.
2 MR. HAUSMAN: Fair enough.
3 MS. RUTTER: You can certainly ask him
4 questions based on his personal -
5 MR. HARCKHAM: Same objection.
6 Q (By Mr. Hausman) I don't even want to
7 know your conclusions. Let me reask the question.
8 Are you aware of any studies -- well,
9 let me see how I can ask that. Okay.
10 Let me ask, in your opinion, given
11 your experience, have you seen any studies that in
12 your opinion establish that chloracne is caused by
13 PCB exposure?
14 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection.
15 MS. RUTTER: I object to the overbroad
16 and vague form of the question and also to the
17 extent that it's calling for a medical opinion from
18 a non-medical person.
19 Q (By Mr. Hausman) I don't want you to
20 give a medical opinion, but I do want to know
2 1 whether you've seen anything in which you personally
22 would have formed that opinion.
23 A When you say medical report, are you
24 talking about formal report, or are you just
25 information that is available?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063908
William Papageorge Protected Material
62
1 Q Any information, whether it be a
2 report or studies or anything like that.
3 A Any information? I was, during my
4 tutorial with the Medical Department in early 1970,
5 a reference was made to an incident that occurred at
6 the precursor company, before Monsanto bought that
7 facility, having an experience with chloracne
8 amongst its workers that were making PCBs and it was
9 traced to a poor quality benzene. That is the only
10 information I have regarding chloracne.
11 Q Okay. When you used the word
12 "allegation," do you have an opinion as to whether
13 those allegations are true or false?
14 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, vague and
15 ambiguous. Lack of foundation.
16 A I have an opinion.
17 Q (By Mr. Hausman) And what is that
18 opinion?
19 A There is an allegation, there was a, a
20 coating system for cable in which they used a
21 mixture of chemicals called Halowax, and I
22 understood, as a result of my tutorial, that the
23 allegations initially included reference to the
24 presence of PCBs as being a cause. I was informed
25 that the information later developed that it was
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063909
William Papageorge Protected Material
63 -
1 the, a different chemical, not PCBs, that was the '
2 cause of the skin condition.
3 Q And does that lead you to believe that
4 PCBs do not cause chloracne?
5 MS. RUTTER: Objection to the vague
6 and confusing form of the question to a non-medical
7 person.
8 A I have never seen symptoms amongst the
9 workers, I've never read anything to lead me to
10 believe otherwise, so I, I find it difficult to
11 associate chloracne with PCB exposure.
12 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Well, let me ask you
13 this. Have you read any -- let me strike that.
14 Have you read any reports in which the
15 medical community has concluded that PCBs do not
16 cause chloracne? I'm just asking if you've read any
17 reports.
18 A Medical community report, I have never
19 seen any such report.
20 Q Okay. All right. Let me ask you to
2 1 mark as Papageorge Exhibit No. 2 a multipage
22 document with the title General Information
23 Concerning the Handling of Aroclor 1254 by W.E.
24 Alexander, date, December 1, 1941, it has Bates
25 number MONS 060030 through 38.

2 Papageorge 2 marked for identification by the court

4 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Again, Mr.
5 Papageorge, if you could just briefly scan this
6 document, I'll have a very few questions, and I'll
7 point to, any passages to you that I have questions
8 about.
9 A I have scanned the report.
10 Q Okay. Do you recall ever seeing this
11 report before?
12 A I don't recall it.
13 Q All right. Do you know who W.E.
14 Alexander is or was?
15 A I think I remember Bill Alexander but
16 I have a hard time placing just under what
17 circumstances I met the man.
18 Q Do you recall him being employed by
19 Monsanto?
20 A Yes. As an engineer I think in
21 engineering, but I don't, I'm not certain.
22 Q Is Aroclor 1254 a PCB containing
23 fluid?
24 A Yes.
25 Q Okay. If you'd turn to the fifth page
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063911
William Papageorge Protected Material
65
1 of this document that has the number 2 on the top
2 with the heading Hazards, do you see that?
3 A I see that.
4 Q The first sentence reads, "The fumes
5 from Aroclor 1254 are quite obnoxious and are, when
6 inhaled excessively, dangerous and hazardous." Do
7 you see that?
8 A Yes.
9 Q Are you aware of what condition that
10 this refers to?
11
MR. HARCKHAM:
Objection.
I don't
12 understand your question.
13
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Do youunderstand
14 the question?
15 A Well, I'm puzzled because it does
16 refer to fumes and
17 Q Okay.
18 A Is that the condition you're -
19 Q Yes. To your knowledge are, to your 20 knowledge of Aroclor 1254, are its fumes quite 21 obnoxious ? 22 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection.
23
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
If you know.
24 A Of course that depends on the density
25 of the fumes, and it's subjective in terms of what
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063912
William Papageorge Protected Material
66
1 is obnoxious to me may not be to you.
2
Q
All right.
Let me ask you this.
Are
3 you aware of any hazards associated with the
4 breathing of Aroclor fumes?
5 A Yes .
6 Q And what are those hazards?
7 A The first symptom that would be
8 noticeable if an excess amount of these fumes are
9 inhaled would result in a coughing and chest pain
10
similar to a severe chest cold.
I call that an
11 early warning symptom that the individual is 12 overexposed. Now, that varies from person to person
13
also.
Some people can withstand it longer than
14 others.
15 Q I believe you used the term "excessive
16 exposure"?
17 A I'm sorry?
18 Q Did you use the term "excessive
19 exposure"?
20 A Yes. 21 Q Can you, is it possible to define what 22 you mean by that?
23 A One way to define it is to use the
24 ACGIH, which is the American Conference of

1 They have a published, an exposure level from years
2 back as to what is considered an acceptable maximum
3 level in the workplace.
4 Q Do you know when they published that
5 exposure level?
6 A As best I recall, it was in the '50s.
7 Q And when they published it, do you
8 recall what form they published it in? Was it a
9 pamphlet or a book or anything else?
10 A I recall seeing a pamphlet, and I also 11 know that it's listed in the booklet which lists 12 many, many chemicals and the exposure levels that
13 are recommended.
14 Q Are there any other definitions of
15 "excessive exposure" that you would use, or is that
16 the primary definition?
17
MS. RUTTER;
I would object to the
18 overbroad and vague form of the question.
19 MR. HARCKHAM; Same objection.
20
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
I think you said one
21 way of characterizing excessive exposure is by
22
referring to those levels.
Is there any other way
23 of characterizing -
24 A Yes, the other way would be the
25 employee developed this chest pain and discomfort.

1 That's a way to say, now, that's excessive for sure,
2 in spite of the numbers in this booklet.
3 Q Do you recall, again, when you first
4 learned of potential hazards from excessive
5 inhalation exposures of Aroclor 1254?
6 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, vague and
7 ambiguous.
8 A As best I recall it was during the
9 period that I was at the Anniston Plant, that's
10 starting in 1965.

William Papageorge Protected Material
69 -
1 A I recall it, yes.
2 Q Okay. What are the circumstances
3 under which you recall seeing this document?
4 A I believe as best I recall that this
5 was one of the documents shown to me when I had my
6 tutorial with the Medical Department in January and
7 February or so of 1970.
8 Q Is that when you became the Manager of
9 Environmental Control?
10 A Yes.
11 Q Do you recall any discussions about
12 this document or the matters described therein?
13 MS. RUTTER: Objection to the vague

18 A I do.
19 Q Who was that?
20 A Elmer Wheeler,w-h-e-e-l-e-r.
21 Q And what was his position in January
22 of 1970?
23 A At that time he was the Assistant
24 Director of Monsanto's Medical Department.
25 Q Did Mr. Wheeler -- let me start again.

William Papageorge Protected Material
70
1 Do you recall any discussions with Mr.
2 Wheeler about this document?
3 A I, of course, don't recall the
4 specific words used, but the overall impression was
5 that these suggestions on clothing, rubber gloves
6 and ventilation and all were quite appropriate.
7 Q You see the second paragraph, the
8 first sentence reads, "Dr. Newman and myself are of
9 the opinion that the greatest danger lies in the
10 inhalation of vapors at high temperatures," and that
11
appears to refer to Aroclors.
Do you recall
12 discussing dangers of inhalation of Aroclor vapors
13 with Mr. Wheeler? With Dr. Wheeler?
14 A Yes, it has to do along the lines with
15 this severe chest pain bit that I mentioned.
16
Q
Okay.
Do you know who W.H. Ritchie is
17 or was?
18 A I don't, no.
19 Q How about Dr. Newman?
20 A I had heard, I've never met Dr.
21
Newman.
He was the Medical Director of Monsanto's
22 European facilities.
23 Q And just referring to the top, to
24 these other names, do you know who N.G.H. Thomas is
25 or was?

2 Q How about J.W. Barrett?
3 A Dr. Barrett was a chemist involved
4 with the research in the European operation.
5 Q And do you know who J.A. Gardner was?
6 A I don't remember Mr. Gardner, Dr.
7 Gardner.
8 Q Do you know whether this is a document
9 that was prepared by a Monsanto person or employee?
10 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
11 foundation.

2
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Okay, Mr.
3 Papageorge, Exhibit 4 is a one page memorandum that
4 attaches either an excerpt or a whole article from a
5
chemist analyst.
Do you have a recollection of
6 seeing either the memorandum or its attachment
7 before?
8 A Yes, I have seen this.
9 Q And do you recall what circumstances,
10 under what circumstances you saw it?
11 A It's part of this Medical Department
12 tutorial I mentioned earlier.
13 Q And this was from Mr. Wheeler?
14 A Yes.
15 Q Do you know -- let me start again.
16 Did Mr. Wheeler tell you whether the
17 Medical Department kept any files of documents
18 pertaining to toxicity of Aroclors?
19 A Oh, certainly.
20 Q He told youthat?
21 A It was part of the medicallibrary.
22 Q Did you have occasion to go into the
23 medical library?
24 A I'm sorry?
25 Q Did you have occasion to go into the

1 medical library?
2 A Oh, yes.
3 Q When you were Director of
4 Environmental Control or earlier?
5 A Since I was assigned Environmental
6
Control.
Prior to that I had to request copies of
7 articles and so on by mail or phone.
8 Q And did you see a file of documents
9 such as Exhibit 4 in the medical library?
10 A Yes .
11 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection.
12 MS. RUTTER: You're talking about as
13 of 1970, Counsel?
14
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Yes, I am.
Yes.
15 A Yes .
16 Q
17 entitled?
Do you know what that file was
18 A As best as I recall, it was Aroclor
19 Toxicity Studies. That's my recollection.
20 Q And in the 1970 time frame, do you
21 know how big this file was? Was it several inches?
22 A I don't know how to describe, it was
23 several drawers of a metal four- or five-drawer
24 cabinet.
25 Q Do you know how long that file was
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063920
William Papageorge Protected Material
74
1 kept for? What the earliest date of that file was?
2 A No, I don't remember.
3 Q Did you have any responsibility when
4 you were Director of Environmental Control or in
5 your two other similar positions for sending
6 materials to that file?
7 A I would send any material that I felt
8 was relevant and of interest to the Medical
9 Department to either the Director or the Assistant
10 Director, and it was up to them to make a decision
11 what went into the file.
12 Q Who maintained this library in 1970?
13 A Who maintained it?
14 Q Yes .
15 A I don't understand.
16 Q Was that a Medical Department
17 function, or was it, was there a broad librarian?
18 A It's a Medical Department facility
19 manned by a librarian who reported to the Medical
20 Department.
21 Q And when you saw the document that's
22 Exhibit 4 in 1970, do you recall having any
23 discussions with Mr. Wheeler about its content?
24 A Yes .
25 Q Do you recall what those discussions
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063921
William Papageorge Protected Material
75
1 were?
'
2 A It's just shown to me as an example of
3 the kind of experiences that Monsanto had at its
4 plant, and also the interest shown by others in
5 exposure to the Aroclor vapors.
6 Q When you say, "interest shown by
7 others," who are you referring to?
8 A I'm particularly referring to this Mr.
9 Brown, who was with the City of St. Louis Department
10 of Public Welfare, that's an example. There are
11 others.
12 Q All right. Let me ask to have marked
13 as Exhibit No. 5 a one page document dated December
14 17/51 from E. Mather to Mr. P.J.C. Haywood, Bates
15 number MONS 095204.
16 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
17 Papageorge 5 marked for identification by the court
18 reporter.)
19 A I have read the memorandum.
20
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Okay.
Do you recall
21 ever seeing this document before?
22
A
I don't recall the document.
I
23 recognize some of the information in there.
24 Q What information do you recognize?
25 A Well, that first paragraph seems to be
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063922
William Papageorge Protected Material
76
1 referring to the incident I mentioned earlier about
2 Swan Chemical Company's experience that occurred in
3 1933 .
4 Q And where did you learn of that
5 incident, if you recall?
6
A
It was during this tutorial.
I don't
7 know if it came up with a document in front of me or
8 whether it was just passed on to me.
9 Q All right. The second paragraph
10 reads, "A little browsing into the literature
11 reveals quite a history of skin troubles and liver
12 troubles (including some fatal cases) attributed to
13 heavy exposure to chlorinated diphenyls."
14 Did you discuss in this tutorial
15 potential liver damages from PCBs?
16 A Yes. 17 Q Do you recall what those discussions
18 were?
19 A I was told that if exposure to PCBs
20 continued to be excessive, it is very possible that
21 the liver is affected, and if the exposure
22 continues, that liver reaches the point where it
23 cannot heal itself, and that could prove to be
24 fatal.
25 Q Do you recall learning of any studies
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063923
William Papageorge Protected Material
77
1 that were done of the potential liver damage from
2 PCBs ?
3 A I'm not aware of any studies.
4 Q Okay.
5
MS. RUTTER:
I'm going to belatedly
6 object, objection to the overbroad vague form of the
7 question.
8 Q (By Mr. Hausman) When you learned of
9 potential liver troubles from PCBs?
10 A Yes .
11 Q Do you recall learning whether those
12 liver troubles were the result of any one type of
13 exposure, be it breathing, skin contact, or
14 ingestion?
15
MR. HARCKHAM:
Objection.
16 A No distinction was made during our
17 discussion
18
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Do you recall
19 learning at any later point of any distinction?
20 A No.
21
Q
Okay.
Let me ask to have marked as'
22 Exhibit 6 a one page document dated February 12,
23 1954, from R. Emmet Kelly, M.D. to Dr. H.R. Newman,
24 Bates number MONS 095193.

2 reporter.)
3 A I've read the document.
4
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Okay.
Do you recall
5 seeing this document before?
6 A Yes.
7 Q Is this one of the documents that you
8 saw during the 1970 tutorial?
9 A Yes.
10 Q Would you tell me who R. Emmet Kelly
11 was ?
12 A He was at that time the Monsanto
13 Corporate Medical Director.
14 Q And when you're saying "at that time,"
15 do you mean 1970 or 1954?
16 A 1954, the date of this memorandum.
17
Q
The date ofthememo,
all right.
Was
18 he still at Monsanto in 1970?
19 A Yes.
20
Q
And what was hisposition
then? What
21 was his position then?
22 A Still Corporate Medical Director.
23 Q Okay, the first paragraph, the first
24 three sentence reads, "We do not know what the
25 maximum allowable concentration of Aroclor is. One
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063925
William Papageorge Protected Material
79
1 milligram per cubic meter has been set up. We have
2 run animals for about 60 days at 7 times this and
3 found some liver damage."
4 Do you recall in 1970 learning of
5 these studies that were done on or about 1954?
6 A Yes.
7 Q Earlier I showed you some documents
8 that discussed potential hazards from breathing
9 Aroclor fumes?
10 A I think I remember which.
11 Q Based on your understanding of that
12 potential hazard, is the concern there liver damage
13 or something else or both?
14 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
15 foundation.
16 MS. RUTTER: Object to the overbroad
17 and vague form of the question to a non-medical
18 person, but subject to those objections, Mr.
19 Papageorge, you may respond if you understand the
20 question.
21
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Did you understand
22 the question?
23 A I think I do. You mentioned a liver
24 damage as being the real concern, actually the
25 concern is for symptoms that appear before that
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063926
William Papageorge Protected Material
80
1 liver is damaged. The very fact of the individual
2 that breathed too many fumes is experiencing
3 discomfort, can't breathe, he's coughing, you don't
4 want that either.
5 Q Okay.
6 A So, and an individual who has the red
7 skin from getting too much on his skin, we don't
8 want that. And that's a long, a long way to go
9 before you get to the liver damage problem.
10 Q All right. Thank you.
11 Now, based on the documents that we've
12 seen so far, is it fair to say that in 1970 in this
13 tutorial, you learned of three alleged hazards from
14 PCBs, one being skin, either chloracne or problems;
15 two being this coughing that you talked about as far
16 as inhalation goes; and three being liver damage; is
17 that correct?
18 A I knew of those before, when I was
19 down in Anniston.
20 Q Okay. Were there any other hazards
21 besides those three that you either knew of at
22 Anniston or you either learned of in 1970 resulting
23 from PCB exposures?
24 A I can't think of any.
25 Q So those are the three main ones?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063927
William Papageorge Protected Material
81
1 A That's it.
2 Q Let me ask to be marked as Exhibit 7
3 an apparent excerpt of a book that was produced by
4 Monsanto, the title appears to be The Chemistry of
5 Industrial Toxicology, it has Bates numbers of MONS
6 076158 through 161.
7 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
8 Papageorge 7 marked for identification by the court
9 reporter.)
10 Q (By Mr. Hausman) And Mr. Papageorge,
11 I don't think you have to read this, very simply I
12 have one question, maybe two questions. Are you
13 familiar with a book entitled The Chemistry of
14 Industrial Toxicology?
15 A This is, can you help me, sir, is this
16 the Sax manual? Dr. Sax?
17 Q That I don't know, because this is how
18 it was produced, and actually, I don't believe it
19 is .
20 A I'm not familiar with a book by the
21 title you just mentioned.
22 Q Okay.
23 A But I am familiar with the Sax
24 reference book on toxicology.
25 Q Okay. Let me show you that. Let me

William Papageorge Protected Material
82
1 ask that marked as Exhibit No. 8, certain pages from
2 a book entitled Dangerous Properties of Industrial
3 Materials by N. Irving Sax, including the cover page
4
and certain other pages.
It does not have a Bates
5 number because it was not produced by Monsanto.
6 It's from a, from a third source.
7 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
8 Papageorge 8 marked for identification by the court
9 reporter.)
10
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Mr. Papageorge, does
11 this appear to be an excerpt of the Sax manual that
12 you just mentioned?
13 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
14 foundation, and I further object to you using a,
15 bits and pieces of a document like this and asking
16 the witness if it's an excerpt.
17
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Okay.
Well, if you
18 look at the first page, then, let's go through it
19 from that. Are you familiar with a book entitled
20 Dangerous Properties of Industrial Materials by N.
21 Irving Sax?
22 A I am.
23 Q And is that the book that you were
24 referring to in your prior testimony?
25 A Yes.
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063929
William Papageorge Protected Material
83
1 Q How are you familiar with that book?
2 A In my involvement with many Monsanto
3 chemicals, I found this to be quite helpful as a
4 reference book. At least as a starting point.
5 Q Do you recall when your earliest
6 reference to the Sax book was? What year?
7 A About, during the tutorial we talked
8 about, 1970.
9 Q So not before 1970?
10 A That's true.
11
Q
All right.
Do you know whether this
12 book is kept in the Monsanto medical library? 13 MR. HARCKHAM: Are you asking him now,
14 if it's kept there now?
15
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
I'll ask in 1970
16 when you first saw it.
17 A 1970, at least one volume was there.
18 There were many around.
19 Q Many around, all through Monsanto?
20 A All the desks, medical personnel, they
21 all had copies.
22 Q Do you have any knowledge of when the
23 earliest time it was that employees of Monsanto had
24 copies of this?
25 A Oh, I don't know that.

84
1 Q Okay. Let me ask to have marked as
2 Exhibit No. 8, No. 9, excuse me, a one page document
3 produced by Reynolds, not by Monsanto, it's on
4 Monsanto Chemical Company letterhead, it is a single
5 page, appears to be an incomplete document dated
6 January 30, 1959. The author, or the recipient is
7 illegible, it appears to be Mr. D.A., the last name
8 is illegible, and it refers to that person as
9 Purchasing Agent, and it has a Bates number of RLD
10 0770380 .
11 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
12 Papageorge 9 marked for identification by the court
13 reporter.)
14
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Mr. Papageorge, I'll
15 represent to you that this is the only page of this
16 document that's been produced. The first page, in
17 the first paragraph refers to a shipment of Aroclor
18
1248.
Do you see that?
19 A I see that.
20 Q Okay. Now, if you look at the bottom
21 of the page, the very last sentence at least begins,
22 "I am sure that your people will be interested in
23 the attached information covering dermatological and
24 toxicological characteristics of handling," and then
25 it ends.

85
1 I want to be very clear, I want you to
2 be very clear on what I'm asking here, and by that I
3 want to know what your knowledge is, and if your
4 answer is I don't know, then that's a fair answer,
5 okay?
6 On or about January 30, 1959, did
7 Monsanto have a general practice of advising its
8 customers of dermatological and toxicological
9 characteristics of Aroclors?
10 A As a general rule, yes.
11 Q And how do you know that?
12 A Well, a good example is the brochures
13 that were in print at the time.
14 Q Around 1959?
15 A '59, there are sections with various
16 titles, but the reference was to the proper way to
17 handle the material and respect it.
18 Q Okay.
19 A We cannot forget that thelabels on
20 the products referred to don't expose to, don't have
21 prolonged exposure to fumes, don't get it on your
22 skin, these kinds of warnings.
23 Q If you know, again, in this 1959
24 period, did Monsanto as a general practice advise
25 purchasers of Aroclors of potential skin hazards
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063932
William Papageorge Protected Material
86
1 from, from Aroclors?
2 A Can you help me with your expression
3 "skin hazards"? You mean --
4 Q Sure. We talked earlier about
5
allegations of chloracne from PCBs.
Do you know
6 whether Monsanto, in the 1959 time frame, as a
7 practice advised its customers of those allegations?
8 A I don't recall any specifics of that
9 type. The advice was always one of preventing the
10 exposure in the first place.
11 Q If you know, in 1959, did Monsanto
12 provide its customers of Aroclors with any reports
13 or analyses of the toxicology or dermatological
14 effects of Aroclors?
15 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection.
16 A As I understood it, and understand to
17 this day, if a request was made to Monsanto for that
18 kind of information, it would be relayed to
19 Monsanto's Medical Department, and it was a
20 situation where either a medical doctor was talking
21 to a medical doctor or industrial hygienist was
22 talking to industrial hygienist and the appropriate
23 documents would be forwarded if requested.
24 So it was on a case by case basis that
25 that happened.

Could you

Do you have any knowledge
6 of whether this document is the type of document

9 Q Do you have any knowledge of whether
10 this document is the type of document that Monsanto
11 would send on to its customers?
12 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection. Let me just
13
expand on my objection for a minute, please.
I
14 think in fairness you ought to point him to the
15 distribution page on this, just, the second page of
16 the document.

Sure.

18 the people that are indicated as distributees on the
19 second page, do you have any knowledge of whether
20 Monsanto had a practice of distributing reports like
21 this to its customers at any time?
22 MS. RUTTER: At any time, Counsel?
23 That's your question?
24
MR. HARCKHAM:
I still object.

Okay.
Let's talk

1 about in the time period of 1940 to 1960. Again,
2 I'm asking for your knowledge, that's all I'm asking
3 for.
4
MS. RUTTER:
I'll object to the
5 overbroad and vague form of the question, lack of
6 foundation.
'
7 MR. HARCKHAM: Right. That's mine,
8 too, as well.
9 A My understanding, not because I was
10 there at that point in time, but the kinds of
11 information that we are looking at now in this
12 exhibit were very commonly included in other
13 informational pamphlets, brochures and the like.
14 Marketing people were given a supply of those and
15 they would drop them off as they visit their
16
customers or mail it to them when requested.
So
17 that information was very freely distributed.
18
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Okay.
Thank you.
19 Let me ask to have marked as Exhibit No. 10 a
20 multipage document entitled Physical Properties of
2 1 the Aroclors, appears to be prepared by Monsanto
22 Chemicals of Quality, St. Louis. And it does not
23 appear to have a date on it.

2 A I have scanned the document.

Do you recall seeing
4 this document before?
5 A Yes.
6 Q Under what circumstances?
7 A I don't recall the specific
8
circumstances
This is --
9 Q Is this a brochure?
10 A It's an early brochure, yes.
11 Q And when you say "early," can you give
12 an estimate of what time period this was prepared?
13 A Oh, golly, I was looking for the date 14
15
MR. HARCKHAM;
I'm just going to
16 object, lack of foundation.
17 A I would suggest the '40s.
18 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Why do you say that?
19 A From the Monsanto logo that existed at 20 that point in time.
21 Q Do you know when that logo was
22 discontinued?
23 A I'm sorry?
24 Q Was that logo discontinued?
25 A It's, it's changed in appearance

WATER PCB-SD0000063936
William Papageorge Protected Material
90
1 through the years.
2 Q All right.
3 A And it wentthroughvarious changes.
4 Q And just for the, so the record is
5 clear, you're referring to the oval logo with
6 "Monsanto" in the center of it; is that correct?
7 About two-thirds of the way down the page?
8 A It's the oval as well as the line
9 below that says, "Manufactured by" with "Monsanto"
10 with those bars across "Monsanto Chemical Company."
11 Q Okay.
12 A That was typical in the '30s and '40s.
13
Q
Okay.
Let me ask to havemarked
as
14 Exhibit No. 11 -
15 MR. HARCKHAM: Let me interrupt you
16
for a second.
It's 12:35, you want to think about
17 breaking for lunch?
18 MR. HAUSMAN: Yeah, actually once I
19 get past this document, that'll pretty much be a
20 good breaking point.
21 MR. HARCKHAM: All right.
22
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Exhibit 11 is a
23 multipage document with a front page stating
24 Monsanto Aroclor 1248, and it does not appear to
25 have a date on it, and that's Bates numbers from

2 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
3 Papageorge 11 marked for identification by the court

5 A I have scanned the document.
6
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Thank you.
Do you
7 recognize this document, Mr. Papageorge?
8 A Yes.
9 Q And is this also a brochure that
10 Monsanto provided to its customers?
11 A This is a brochure, yes.
12
Q
Is this the type of brochurethat
as a
13 general practice Monsanto would give to its
14 customers ?
15 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
16 foundation.
17
A
Oh, I wouldn't call it general.
This
18 is pretty specific to this particular product.
19
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Do you know whether
20 Monsanto as a general practice would provide this
21 brochure to its customers of Aroclor 1248?
22 A Yes. 23 Q Again, this document does not appear
24
to have a date on it.
Is there anything in the
25 document from which you can make an estimation of
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063938
William Papageorge Protected Material
92
1 the date that this was prepared?
2
MR. HARCKHAM;
If you look there's a
3 bibliography, just to speed things up.
4 MR. HAUSMAN: On page 995.
5 MR. HARCKHAMs Right.
6
MR. HAUSMANj
Yeah.
It's the third
7 from the last page, I believe, there's a
8 bibliography which provides some dates.
9 A I see that, yeah.
10
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
From, from that or
11 any other indications, possibly the logo, is there
12 any way of telling from this document what the
13 approximate date was?
14 A Yeah, the middle '50s is what I would
15 say, yes.
16 Q And why do you say that?
17 A Well, first of all, this logo now
18 reflects the '50s.
19 Q That's the logo on the first page?
20 A And then this page 079995 where the
2 1 literature is cited, the first citation there is a
22
Applications Bulletin dated 1954.
So this document
23 has to be at least that vintage, 1954 or later.
24 Q Thank you. Why don't we go off the
25 record.

Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Okay.
Let me ask to
4 have marked as Exhibit No. 12 a one page document,
5 in larger print entitled Therminol FR, Safety of
6 Handling, Bates number MONS 076584.
7 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit

10 A I have read the document.
11
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Mr. Papageorge, do
12 you recognize this document?
13 A I believe I do.
14 Q Do you recall what circumstances,
15 under what circumstances you've seen this document
16 before?
17 A It appears to me to be a page out of a
18 Monsanto brochure relating to Therminols.
19
Q
Okay.
Is there a difference between
20 Therminols and Aroclors?
21 A You mean chemically or title-wise?
22 Q Chemically.
23
A
Chemically,
some of the Aroclors are
24 also called Therminols.
25 Q All right.Are Therminols used for
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063940
William Papageorge Protected Material
1 heat transfer media?
94 -
`
2 A Yes.
3 Q I've seen numbers on Aroclors such as
4 1248 and 1252, is there a name for those numbers? I
5 just want to make sure we're talking about the same
6 thing.
7 A Well, there is no name for the numbers
8 except that the numbers do indicate what type of
9 mixture is in that particular Aroclor product.
10
Q
All right.
Is it correct that the
11 last two digits of those numbers indicates the
12 percentage of chlorine? Is that correct?
13 A Yes.
14 Q So 1252 would be 52 percent chlorine?
15
A
If there were a 52.
It's actually 54.
16 Q 54.
17 A That means 54 percent by weight is
18 chlorine.
19 Q Do the Therminols have a specific
20 weight by chlorine?
21 A Well, the particular Aroclor used in
22 that particular Therminol is designated by that four
23 digit number we talked about.
24 Q So the Therminols have different
25 percentage weights?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063941
William Papageorge Protected Material
95
1
A
Yes.
Just like the Aroclors.
2
Q
All right.
I guess what I'm trying to
3 understand is, is this. Well, let me ask a
4 question.
5 Did Monsanto sell products called both
6 Aroclors and Therminols?
7 A Yes.
8 Q Okay. Is there a reason for those
9 difference in names between Aroclor and Therminols?
10 A I think there's a reason, yes. The
11 use of the word "Therminol" is used to imply that
12 this particular liquid is used in thermal systems.
13 As distinguished from the word "Aroclor," which is a
14 product that can be used in many, many different
15 ways.
16 Q Okay. Is "Aroclor" a broader term for
17 a broader category of substances?
18
A
Oh, yes.
It covers many, many
19 different products.
20 Q Okay. Back to Exhibit 12, are there
21 any indications on this document that would enable
22 you to make an estimate of when it was written?
23 A No, there are no indications.
24 Q Okay. Let me ask to have marked as
25 Exhibit 13 a two page document, Monsanto Company

4 1966 .
5 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit

8 A I have read the document.
9
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Do you recognize
10 this document?
11 A Yes.
12 Q And under what circumstances have you
13 seen this document before?
14
A
I don't remember the specifics.
This
15 is typical of the kinds of statements that the
16 Medical Department would issue on Monsanto products.
17
Q
Do youknow whether
this statement as
18 a practice would be distributed to customers?
19
MR. HARCKHAM:
Objection.
I don't
20 understand, for one thing, I don't know what time
21 period you're talking about.
22 Q (By Mr. Hausman) At any time after
23 its preparation.
24 A Yes.
25
Q
And why doyou
saythat?
'
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063943
William Papageorge Protected Material
97
1 A That was the intent of preparing it in
2 the first place.
3 Q To distribute to customers?
4 A Yes, for in, Monsanto's personal or in
5 house use and to distribute to any interested
6 parties, whether they be current customers, future
7 customers, or regulatory agents, whoever.
8
Q
Okay.
Does the fact that it includes
9 a Monsanto Company legend with an address indicate
10 that it's intended for outside distribution?
11 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
12 foundation.
13
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
If you know.
14
A
Not necessarily.
It could be internal
15 also.
16 Q If you could look at the last
17 paragraph of the first page, the last two sentences,
18 it reads, "In heat transfer installations, the fluid
19 must be used in a closed system free from leaks with
20 the expansion tank vented to the outdoors.
21 Accordingly, there should be little or no
22 opportunity for workers to come in contact with the
23 vapors."
24 To your knowledge did Monsanto -- let
25 me start this over, let's put this in a time period.
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063944
William Papageorge Protected Material
98
1 Before the date of this document,
2 August 17, 1966, do you know whether Monsanto had a 3 practice of advising its customers that heat
4 transfer installations had to have closed systems
5 free from leaks?
6 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
7 foundation.
8
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Again, if you have
9 that knowledge.
10 A Yes, that was the intent, to inform
11 customers on the need to have a leakproof system.
12 Q Okay. And under that intent, do you
13 know what hazards or dangers were anticipated, if
14 any?
15 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
16 foundation.
17 A Well, the degree of hazard and danger, 18 of course, is related to the amount of material, to
19 the time of exposure, the number of people that
20 could be exposed, and that certainly was an
21
intention to minimize all that.
In fact, not only
22 minimize, completely eliminate. The other intent,
23 of course, was to keep it from getting into the
24 sewer and leaving the premises.
25 Q (By Mr. Hausman) When you say the
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063945
William Papageorge Protected Material
99
1 amount of material was a factor, does that mean if a
2 system used more, or a large degree of HTM fluid,
3 that ought to be more important to prevent leaks?
4
MR. HARCKHAM;
Objection, vague and
5 ambiguous.
6 A Well, I don't think it has anything so
7 much to do with the amount of liquid in a system,
8 it's the amount that is leaving the system
9 unintentionally that's critical.
10
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Okay.
When you say
11 that, I believe you said it's the intent to advise
12 customers to prevent against leaks; that a fair
13 characterization?
14 A Yes.
15 Q Where did you learn of that intent?
16 Or in other words, what's the basis of your saying
17 that that's the intent?
18 A Gee, I don't know whether I can
19 describe it. This is, this is so common to all
20 Monsanto products, it's just not unique just to
21 Therminols, it's based just on the need to operate
22 in what I'm going to call a professional kind of
23 manner and maintain the equipment, keep the place
24 clean, I don't know how else to describe it.
25 Q Let me ask to have marked as Exhibit

16 A I don't recall a specific incident. 17 This is another example of the kind of information
18 put out by the Medical Director of Monsanto
19 referring to, in this case, a specific Therminol. 20 Q Okay. And would this document also be
21 intended for distribution to others, including
22 customers ?
23 A Right.

1
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Is there a
2 difference between a Therminol FR-0 that's referred
3 to in Exhibit 13 and Therminol FR-1 that's referred
4 to in Exhibit 14?
5 A Different Aroclors are involved in
6 making each of these Therminols.
7 Q Do each of those correspond with a
8 1200 number?
9 A Well, the Therminol FR-1 is Aroclor
10 1242 if my memory serves me right.
11 Q Okay.
12 A FR-0, as I remember, is a blend, I
13 hope I remember this correctly, it's Aroclor 1254
14
plus tri- and tetrachlorobenzene.
It's a, benzene
15 is added to thin it out a bit.
16 Q Is it correct that tri- and 17 tetrachlorobenzene are not PCBs? 18 A That's correct. That's a chlorinated
19 benzene, not a PCB.
20
Q
Okay.
So your recollection is that
21 Therminol FR-0 had a higher chlorine percentage than
22 FR-1; is that right?
23 A The Aroclor ingredient had a higher,
24
but I have not calculated the total chlorine.
That
25 one associated with the benzene and the chlorine
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063948
William Papageorge Protected Material
102
1 associated with the biphenyl, I have not calculated
2 the total chlorine.
3 Q When you say you haven't calculated
4 the total chlorine, what are you referring to there?
5 A Well, one can sit down, if you're
6 interested in a number, and by the molecular weight
7 or atomic weight of each of the carbons and
8 hydrogens and chlorine, you can calculate what
9 percent by weight a mixture of these would show.
10
Q
Okay.
You can set that aside.

5
Q
Okay.
Do you know who W.B. Brown is
6 or was?
7 A I, I don't recognize him.
8
Q
Okay.
In paragraph 3 of page 2 refers
9 to a Dr. Benignus or Benignus?
10 A Yeah, I see that.
11 Q Do you know him?
12 A I know Paul, yes.
13 Q Do you know if he's still alive?
14 A I believe he is.
15 Q What was his position in 1954?
16 A In 1954 Paul Benignus was a member of
17 Monsanto's Research Department studying PCBs and
18 applications of PCBs.
19 Q To your awareness is he retired today?
20 A I'm sorry?
21 Q Is he retired at this point in time?
22 A Oh, yes. Yes.
23 Q Do you know how old he is?
24 A In his 80s.
25 Q The last sentence read, "Dr. Benignus

WATER PCB-SD0000063950
William Papageorge Protected Material
104
1 keeps a careful check on sales of Aroclor and if the
2 replacement rate is high he has the situation
3 investigated."
4 Have you been aware of any such
5 practice, to monitor the amount of replacement of
6 Aroclors ?
7 A Yes.
8 Q Is that something that Monsanto did as
9 a general practice?
10 A That is a general practice, yes.
11 Q Including in 1954?
12 A Yes. 13 MR. HARCKHAM: Let me belatedly object
14 on foundation grounds.
15
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
That was actually my
16 next question. And how do you know that to be a
17 fact?
18 A I, what I'm going to call normal
19 communications with marketing people, shipping
20 people, and we had meetings where they discussed,
21 "Boy, the sales to company ABC are skyrocketing, we
22 got to look into that," and then they come back
23 later and say, "They've got a new system going," or,
24 "They drained their system," or, "They had an
25 accident," depending on what they find out.

Q
Okay.
Do you know what was done as a
2 practice if it was determined that a company had a
3 leaking HTM system? Heat transfer system?
4 MS. RUTTER: Objection to the
5 overbroad and vague form of the question.
6 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection.
7
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Okay, let me, let me
8 restate it.
9 Did Monsanto have any practices of
10 following up if, following up with a customer if the
11 replacement rate was determined to be high?
12 A Yes, they had a practice.
13 Q And what did that practice entail?
14 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
15 foundation, and also object because there's no time
16 frame.
17
MS. RUTTER:
I join.
18
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Why don't we start
19
in 1954, and that's if you know.
Let's be clear.
20 A It was a practice where an unusual
21 amount of material was being delivered, shipped, the
22 field salesman would be asked to drop by and discuss
23
the matter.
Sometimes those visits would result in
24 some information relating to, like I said earlier,
25 either a new system or a drain and fill of a system
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063952
William Papageorge Protected Material
106
1 or an accident, I can't think of any other examples'.
2 And the salesman would report that
3 back to his supervisor, in turn it would get back to
4
the Director of the Business Group.
If he felt that
5 the customer wasn't going to take corrective action,
6 he'd get involved and call somebody, the customer's
7 home office, for example. That kind of dialogue
8 would take place on occasion.
9
MR. HARCKHAM;
I didn't mean to
10 interrupt you, I'm sorry. Are you done?
11
THE WITNESS;
I'm done.
12
MR. HARCKHAM:
I just want to make
13 clear for the record that I have a continuing
14 objection on the record on a foundation basis to
15 this line of questions.
16
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Yeah, and the
17 process you just described, how do you know that, or
18 how did you obtain that knowledge?
19 A It would come up in discussions with
20 the marketing people. We would have, marketing
21 salesmen would come in and we'd have seminars and
22 meetings, this would come up as a way that they
23 functioned out in the field. Some of them would
24 describe their successes and some would describe
25 their, their failures, the customer wouldn't let
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063953
William Papageorge Protected Material
107
1 them in the plant, they wouldn't share any
2 information with them, so I couldn't help but pick
3 it up.
4 Q And you were present at these
5 discussions and seminars?
6 A I would be, well, because I was part
7 of the program. And I had my information to give to
8 them and they in turn would give me theirs.
9 Q You say you were part of the program,
10 what program were you referring to?
11 A I was involved predominantly with
12 marketing people after 1970. Prior to that, the
13 meeting with groups of marketing people was not as
14 frequent. We would have meetings, say, at the
15
Anniston Plant.
I would be the host and we'd have
16 30 salesmen show up and we'd have a two or three day
17
meeting.
Then I would be involved.
But that
18 wouldn't happen too often.
19 Q And just to be clear, as you learned
20 of these procedures to let's say monitor these
21 heated exchange systems, did you learn that those
22 procedures were in place as early as 1954?
23 A Yes.
24 Q And did you also learn that those
25 procedures continued from 1954, say, to 1970?

Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Thank you.
Do you
13 recognize this document?
14 A Yes, I do.
15 Q Okay. And under what circumstances
16 have you seen this before?
17 A In my assignment as Manager of
18 Environmental Control, Environmental Protection, I
19 was in a position where I was consulted on attempts
20 to put in writing the proper handling of PCB
21
containing materials.
This was prepared by the,
22 this was prepared by Monsanto people in the group
23 responsible for the marketing of dielectric fluids.
24 Q And dielectric fluids are different
25 from heat exchange fluids?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063955
William Papageorge Protected Material
109
1
A
Chemically not necessarily.
Some of
2
them are identical chemically.
Some of the
3 dielectric fluids are blends with other ingredients
4 present.
5 Q Is "askarel" a term that Monsanto used
6 to label these dielectric fluids?
7 A No, "askarel" is a term used by the 8 electrical equipment manufacturers who used fire
9
resistant fluids in their equipment.
So in a way,
10 "askarel" is a generic expression for fire resistant
11 dielectric fluids.
12 Q Did Monsanto have brand names for
13 askarels ?
14 A No.
15 Q So did Monsanto also refer to them as
16 askarels as they sold them?
17
A
On
occasion, yes. Butgenerally we
18 would refer to them under the trademark which
19 reflected the particular recipe as ordered by the
20 customer. Like Pyranol was a General Electric name.
21 Inerteen was a Westinghouse name, and there were
22 several others.
23 Q Did Monsanto itself have any
24 trademarks for any askarels?
25 A No.

1 Q Did Monsanto sell dielectric fluids
2 that had PCBs?
3 A Yes.
4 Q Was Exhibit 16 something that was
5 intended to be distributed to customers?
6 A I'm sorry?
7
Q
Sure.
Let me restate that.
Was
8 Exhibit 16, this document, something that was
9 intended by Monsanto to be distributed to customers?
10 A It was intended to be so, yes.
11 Q Okay. And can you give me an
12 estimate, if possible, as to the approximate time
13 frame in which this document was generated?
14 A It refers to a document available from
15 the American National Standards Institute, and that
16
document went into print in 1974.
So it would have
17 to be shortly thereafter.
18
Q
Thank you.
I'm going to ask to have
19 marked as Exhibit 17, I believe, a multipage
20 document entitled Presentation to Field Sales,
21 Personal and Confidential, has a Bates number of

Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Do you recognize
4 this document, sir?
'
5 A Yes, I do.
6 Q And under what circumstances do you
7 recall seeing this document before?
8 A I saw this document, as best I
9 remember, belatedly, after a letter to the customers
10
was sent.
I forget the exact circumstances, but I
11 saw a copy of this presentation after the fact,
12
after the presentation was made.
I would suggest
13 that this happened about March or April of 1970.

15 Manager of Environmental Control?
16 A Yes.
17 Q Did you have any role in the
18 preparation of this document?
19 A 20 earlier.
No. Otherwise I would have seen it

Sure.
Do you know who prepared the

1 A I have it.
2 Q The second paragraph reads, "Let me
3 summarize what Monsanto's letter says; No. 1, Its
4 primary function is to alert customers to a
5 potential environmental pollution problem."
6 Do you know what the phrase "potential
7 environmental pollution problem" refers to?
8 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
9 foundation.
10
MS. RUTTER:
I join.
11 MR. HARCKHAM: We have the letter, you
12 might want to show him the letter.
13
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
All right.
Do you
14 know what that phrase refers to?
15 A The reference to "potential" had to do
16 with effect on the environment as distinguished from
17 presence in the environment, and it was potential at
18 the time because there was no information to clearly
19 define what is going on out in the environment with
20 PCBs present.
21 Q Is there any specific event that led
22 Monsanto to take the action of advising its
23 customers of a potential environmental pollution
24 problem?
25 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, because I
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063959
William Papageorge Protected Material
113
1 don't know what you're referring to.
2
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Do you understand
3 the question?
4 A I didn't hear a key word at the
5 beginning.
6 Q Was there a particular event that
7 caused Monsanto to take the action of advising its
8 customers of potential environmental pollution
9 problems of Aroclor?
10 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, vague and
11 ambiguous.
12 A I would suggest that it was a series
13
of situations that led to that.
It was not any
14
single event, no.
It was the accumulation of
15 information from several sources regarding the
16 identity of this material and the samples taken and
17 the unusualness of the sample in that it's, it was
18 hard for Monsanto representatives to understand how
19 PCBs got into pine needles in Sweden, which is not
20 perceived to be a heavy industrial area. Or in the
21 hair from an infant, or even the fish up there near
22 Sweden.
23 So it was the strangeness of these,
24 strange to Monsanto with industrial perspective, to
25 associate PCBs with those presences. Even here in
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063960
William Papageorge Protected Material
114
1 the states we had reports, the pelican off south
2 California wasn't hatching its eggs, and the
3 peregrine falcon out of Cornell University study,
4 this kind of information all kind of was building up
5 to the point where Monsanto decided that we better
6 be responsible and do what we can within reason,
7 without creating explosions in transformers and what
8 not.
9
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Is there any further
10 information that Monsanto gained from what you just
11 described that led it ultimately to withdraw certain
12 PCB products?
13 A Certainly we, we kept learning as we
14
went.
Some of the early information proved to be
15
erroneous.
I mentioned the peregrine falcon and
16 then the pelicans, those situations were determined,
17 finally, to be due to DDT, although PCBs were found
18 there. The, the availability of alternative
19 materials helped a lot.
20 For example, the availability of a
21 fire resistant dielectric fluid was a real
22
challenge.
It just could not be found easily to the
23 point where even the government, if, those of you
24 that have read the Interagency Task Force Report
25 that came out in '72 strongly emphasized that we
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063961
William Papageorge Protected Material
115
1 better not get out of the electrical applications.
2 It's too important. And I think you can visualize 3 what the World Trade Center would be like with a
4 fire up there on different levels where the
5 transformers are located.
6 Nevertheless, the idea was to withdraw
7 from those uses where a reasonable alternative was
8 available with some slight compromise in safety and
9 what have you. And when that was determined to be
10
possible, Monsanto moved.
They didn't wait for the
11 government to dictate when to get out.
12 Q And just to place a time period on
13 that decision, was that in the early '70s?
14 A The decision to phase out, the first
15 step I want to call it was really arrived at, that's
16 a poor choice of words, in about April or May of
17 1970, and the recommendation was made to the top
18 executives in Monsanto and the program was approved
19 and the, what we call open uses, that's use in
20 paint, caulking materials, carbonless copy paper,
21 those uses were terminated starting on August of
22 1970 . 23
The heat transfer and hydraulic fluid
24 applications were perceived to be closed systems.
25 Nobody designs a leaking system deliberately, so we
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063962
William Papageorge Protected Material
116
1 said, well, wait a minute. We can tell our
2 customers, don't let it get away from you, and they
3 can still enjoy what we perceive to be important
4 characteristics. Fire and explosion-proof
5 properties.
6 The dielectric business, there was no
7 choice at the time. We just could not come up with
8 any alternative, and we felt quite comfortable that
9 since they were closed, steel boxes in essence with
10 no circulation, no pressure to leak out, if they did
11 leak it was more of an ooze that could be caught
12 quickly, and you could still enjoy the
13 explosion-proof transformer sitting outside your
14 Holiday Inn room. Some of you may have seen those
15 boxes out there.
16 Well, I'm talking more than I should,
17 perhaps, but nevertheless, it was an evolving
18 concept so that once we got rid of the open uses
19 with a lot of unhappy customers, very unhappy, then
20 we moved into the hydraulic fluids, because we had
21 an idea that phosphate esthers might be the
22 alternative.
23 But before that we got into the heat
24 transfer because of the applications in the food
25 business and there was some concern about the PCBs
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063963
William Papageorge Protected Material
117
1
finding their way into the food products.
So that
2 program took off even before the hydraulic fluids
3 program.
4 I don't know if I answered your
5 question, it's just an evolutionary kind of phasing
6 out.
7
Q
Yes.
Thank you.
In this time period
8 of the late '60s and early '70s, did Monsanto make
9 any let me start that over.
10 From the time period of 1968 to the
11 early 1970s, was there any information learned by
12 Monsanto indicating additional possible toxicity
13 from what was already known?
14 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection.
15
A
Early '70s? No.
Tests were under way
16 sponsored by Monsanto, but they were not anywhere
17
near completion.
It would take a couple more years
18 before we would get the end results.
19
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
Okay, then, after
20 the early 1970s, did Monsanto learn of any
21 additional toxic effects, potential toxic effects,
22 let's say that, of PCBs from what we discussed
23 earlier today?
24 A Well, we, our studies showed that
25 chickens were affected, the hatchability of their
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063964
William Papageorge Protected Material
118 -
1 eggs, they also showed that the higher chlorinated '
2 types of PCBs affected the weight gain of the test
3 animals, and it affected some of their livers, which
4 was not a surprise, it confirmed what was known
5 before.
6 Q And that's what we discussed earlier,
7 the potential liver damage to animals?
8 A Yes, the liver damage was obvious, but
9 this was the first time that the animals were tested
10 in a multiyear test program, the kind that's used
11 for Food and Drug Administration approvals. The
12 first time to our knowledge it was done on
13 industrial chemical as distinguished from a
14 pharmaceutical or a food or cosmetic application.
15 Q Let me ask to have marked as Exhibit
16 18 a two page document with the date of June 17,
17

1 A I do.
2 Q And under what circumstances do you
3 recall seeing this document before?
4 A Under what circumstances did I see it?
5 Q Yes .
6 A Well, I was involved in the
7 preparation of the earlier drafts, so I got to see
8 it fairly early, and made my comments, I forgot the
9 specifics of what I said then. Anyway, this is a

Q
Okay.
Did this, was this reprinted in
15 some more formal form?
16 A Yes, they had the logo and the colored 17 inks and so on.

1 Q At that time in 1970 did Monsanto
2 institute a procedure of advising its customers to
3 prevent leakage from their heat exchange systems?
4 A Yes.
5 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection.
6 Q (By Mr. Hausman) And why was that?
7 A I'm sorry?

9 A It's part of our program of informing
10 the customer to do whatever it could to avoid it
11 getting into the environment.

1 Q Do you recall preparing it?
2 A Now that I read it I recall it, yes.
3
Q
Okay.
Do you recall why you prepared
4 it?
5 A Yes, I was trying to really educate
6 myself a little bit more on what we at Monsanto had
7 learned about leak-proof systems and whether they,
8 what we were doing was comparable to what I
9 understood our customers were doing, or if
10 necessary, share what we were doing with our
11 customers.
12 Q Okay. Who is Mr. Canham?
13 A Mr. Canham was a, one of the Monsanto
14 engineers in the Central Engineering Department.
15
Q
Okay.
Second paragraph reads,
16 "Monsanto's Therminols (FR Series) contain Aroclors.
17 In order to stay in this business, we are insisting
18 that heat transfer systems be designed to assure
19 minimum loss by leakage or vaporization."
20 Subsequent to this letter, did
21 Monsanto communicate to its customers that heat
22 transfer systems needed to be designed to assure
23 minimum loss by leakage or vaporization?
24 A That was our understanding and that's
25 what we believed in.

18 same date as Exhibit 19; is that correct?
19 A I'm sorry? 20 Q I will withdraw that question, the
2 1 document speaks for itself.
22 Who is B.W. Corlew?

12
Q
(By Mr. Hausman)
And do you
recognize
13 this document?
14 A Yes, I do.
15 Q And do you recall why youprepared
16 this document?
17 A It' s a result of a visit I made to the
18 plant to observe the kinds of things they were doing
19 to reduce or eliminate PCBs entering into their
20 facilities and on out beyond the plant gate into the 21 environment. And this was my expression of the 22 kinds of things I saw that weren't quite as good as
23 I would have liked to have seen them.
24 Q At your, at that time, 1970, did you
25 consider the use of sand to pick up PCB liquid to
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063971
William Papageorge Protected Material
125
1 be, as you say, a practice that you would prefer
2 didn't happen?
3 A Yes.
4 Q And why is that?
5
A
I'd prefer stoppingthe leakage
or
6 loss in the first place. Using sand to absorb it is
7 one way to keep it from entering a water system, but
8 it creates a disposal problem of that contaminated
9 sand, and I was trying to reduce the problems as
10 much as I could in every direction, whether it be 11 the atmosphere, the water, or the landfill. 12 Q Who is Mr. Jessee?
13 A He was the PlantManager atAnniston,
14
Alabama at that time.
He succeeded me.
15 Q Okay. This is the Monsanto plant?
16 A Yes.
17 Q Do you recall whether Monsanto, after
18 August 1970, communicated to any of its customers
19 that they should not use sand to pick up leaked
20 PCBs ? 21 A That was one of thestrong 22 recommendations we made to our marketing people and
23 to our home office people who might be contacting
24 the customers.

6 unfortunately isn't the most legible document, so
7 let me read the first several sentences into the
8 record just so we're clear.
9 "Because of increasing PCB
10 environmental pressures and questions as to whether 11 we can effectively 'close the loop' and eliminate 12 leaks in heat transfer systems, we have decided in
13 the United States to initiate a policy of no new
14 systems on Therminol FR fluids. We intend that
15 there will be no exceptions to this policy."
16 Also I note that there appears to be a
17 handwritten CC with the first name indicated as
18
Papageorge.
Do you recognize this document?
19 A As I read it I recall it, yes.
20 Q Did Monsanto make a decision in 1971 21 to initiate a policy of no new systems of Therminol 22 FR fluids?
23 A Yes. 24 Q Okay. Why did it do that?
25 A It was primarily based on some
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063975
William Papageorge Protected Material
129
1 incidences that involved PCBs used as heat transfer
2 fluids getting into food and animal feed products.
3 In order to avoid future incidences of that type,
4 alternative fluids were developed but sacrificing
5 the fire resistance.
6 Those changeovers appeared to be
7 successful, and with that success and with the
8 continual leakage of the industrial type heat
9 transfer systems, it was decided that Monsanto would
10 not sell the PCB type fluids to the new systems, and
11 eventually it decided to promote the drainage of the
12 old systems and replacing with these alternative
13 materials.
14 Q Okay. Was the decision to promote
15 changeouts of those systems, was that in 1972, to
16 your recollection?
17 A The decision, did you ask me was it
18 made in '72 or --
19 Q Yes. Or earlier.
20 A It was made about the time of this
21 memorandum, September '71, and evolved, by '72 we
22 were pretty far along, as I remember.
23 Q Okay. That's all with that document.
24 Let me ask to have marked as Exhibit 24 a multipage
25 document indicated as Copy on the front page, says

7 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Mr. Papageorge, I'm
8 not going to have any specific questions on this
9 document, I just want to ask you if you recognize
10 this document.
11 A I recognize this as a draft, not a
12 final version, of an attempt to put in brochure form
13 a conversion program.
14 Q And that was a brochure form for, at
15 least to your customers?
16 A Yes.
17 Q Do you recognize the handwriting
18 throughout the document? I guess the real question
19 is is that your handwriting?
20 A It's not my handwriting. I don't know
21 whose it is.
22 Q Okay. Do you know whether the
23 information in this document was ultimately
24 converted into a final brochure?
25 A Yes.

1 Q And was that in 1971, 1972?
2 A Early '72 was the final version.
3 Q Okay. Thank you. Okay.
4 Let me ask to have marked as Exhibit
5 25 a multipage document entitled Monsanto's PCB
6 Program, apparently prepared by W.B. Papageorge for
7 a meeting date September 14, 1971, and has Bates
8 range of MONS 041633 through 648.
9 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
10 Papageorge 25 marked for identification by the court
11 reporter.)
12 A I have scanned the document.
13 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Do you recognize
14 this document?
15 A Yes, I do.
16 Q And do you recall why you prepared
17 this document?
18 A Yes.
19 Q Why is that?
20 A I was appointed to be Chairman of a
21 American National Standards Institute committee to
22 address the issue of control of entry of dielectric
23 PCB containing fluids into the environment.
24 At the first meeting of the, I'm going
25 to call it a working meeting where the committee was
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063978
William Papageorge Protected Material
132
1 to get serious about which, what it was going to
2 produce, I prepared this presentation to bring
3 everyone in the room up to date. Several of the
4 people there had already heard this or these kinds
5 of thoughts; there were others that were totally new
6 to the issue, so my intent was to bring them up to
7 date.
8 Q Was the information in this
9 preparation put into any type of publication by this
10 group?
11 A No.
12 Q Do you recall whether any customers of
13 Monsanto attended this meeting?
14 A Oh, yes.
15 Q Do you know whether Reynolds sent
16 anybody to this meeting?
17 A I don't recall Reynolds being present,
18 no.
19 Q Let me ask to have marked as Exhibit
20 26 a multipage document entitled Discontinuation of
21 Therminol FR Sales, no apparent date indicated, has
22 Bates number of MONS 043488 through 496.

1 A I have scanned the exhibit.
2 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Thank you. Do you
3 recognize this document, Mr. Papageorge?
4 A I have seen it before, yes, sir.
5 Q And under what circumstances have you
6 seen it before?
7 A As best I recall, Mr. Gossage's
8 secretary brought a draft by the office for me to
9 review. That was my first exposure to this.
10 Q And who is Mr. Gossage?
11 A Mr. Gossage at the time was the Sales
12 Director of the group that marketed Therminols.
13 Q Did you provide comments for this,
14 this draft?
15 A I did, but I frankly don't remember
16 the details. I don't remember the very first draft
17 I saw.
18 Q Was a document prepared for
19 distribution to customers pursuant to this?
20 A This document was really prepared for
21 the upper management, as you'll note, and on, also
22 the field salesmen.
23 Q All right.
24 A To help them respond to any questions
25 that they might be asked by the customers.
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490

134
1 Q So when you say "upper management,"
2 you mean upper management of Monsanto?
3 A Yes.
4 Q All right. When you were the Manager
5 of Environmental Control or Environmental
6 Protection, did you receive any reports on the
7 status in progress of any changeouts at Reynolds'
8 Massena facility?
9 A Yes.
10 Q From whom did you receive those
11 reports ?
12 A Coordinator of the Therminol program,
13 Paul Gann, G-a-n-n, would either tell me personally,
14 verbally, orally, or he would also prepare, as I
15 recall, a status report in which he listed customers
16 and the last contacts made and the progress they
17 were making. Mr. Gann was my principal source of
18 information.
19 Q Okay. Do you know whether he visited
20 the Massena Reynolds plant at any time?
21 A I don't know that.
22 Q Did you ever have any interaction with
23 a Monsanto employee named Dean Danzer?
24 A Yes.
25 Q What kind of contacts did you have
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063981
William Papageorge Protected Material
135
1 with Mr. Danzer?
2 A At what point in time?
3 Q Fair enough. At the point in time
4 when Reynolds was changing out its heat transfer
5 system.
6 A Mr. Danzer was assigned to assist Mr.
7 Gann's efforts in these Therminol changeovers. He
8 had located temporarily in the building that the
9 rest of us were located, so I would meet him in the
10 hallways or he'd drop by the office, because we had
11 known each other previously, so he felt he could
12 drop in any time and tell me how things were going
13 and what, what had transpired. And that's how I
14 kept in touch, really, with the kinds of activities
15 that he was personally involved with.
16 Q Let me ask to be marked as Exhibit No.
17 27 a two page document with the heading Sales
18 Meeting, Tuesday, April 27, 1971, has a Bates number
19 of REY 000359 through 360.

20 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
2 1 Papageorge 27 marked for identification by the court
22 reporter.)
23 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Mr. Papageorge, the
24 reason I show you this document is I see the
25 initials W.P. about two-thirds of the way down the
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490

1 first page after Environment and Pollution.
'
2 A I see that W.P.
3 Q Do you recall attending a sales
4 meeting on April 27, 1971?
5 A I've attended so many sales meetings,
6 this seems very typical.
7 Q Okay.
8 A Nothing stands out as being unique. 9 Q On the second page Reynolds Metals is
10 indicated, the name Reynolds Metals is indicated.
11 Do you recall -~
12 MR. HARCKHAM: Can I just, for the
13 record, I take it this page is redacted, Carol?
14 MS. RUTTER: Yes. 15 MR. HARCKHAM: So there was actually
16 seven that were on the original list, the original?
17 MS. RUTTER: It's been a few months,
18 but it certainly appears so.
19 MR. HAUSMAN: And I think, from the 20 production, I take it that you redacted names of
21 other customers?
22 MS. RUTTER: Yes.
23 (An off the record discussion was held
24 at this time.)
25 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Okay, back on the
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063983
William Papageorge Protected Material
137
1 record. Mr. Papageorge, do you recall discussions
2 of Reynolds Metals at sales meetings in 1971?
3 A Yes.
4 Q Do you recall what was discussed?
5 A I'm sorry?
6 Q Do you recall what was discussed?
7 A I recall in general that PCBs were
8 present at the sites, that communications were good,
9 that once the message was understood, that the
10 response was very sophisticated. They're right up,
11 up to it.
12 Q Do you recall seeing any report -
13 MR. HARCKHAM: Had you finished your
14 answer?
15 MR. HAUSMAN: I'm sorry. Please.
16 A The net result is that I felt, from
17 what I heard and gathered, that things were going
18 well and it didn't need my personal visit or
19 involvement or telephone calls. In other words, I
20 felt comfortable with what I heard, and I used my
21 time on the other problem customers that we were
22 facing.
23 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Do you recall what
24 measures Reynolds took in the early '70s in response
25 to the communications that were sent to it from
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063984
William Papageorge Protected Material
138
1 Monsanto?
2 MS. RUTTER: I would object to the
3 overbroad and vague form of the question.
4 A I don't remember details. I do
5 remember the general impression that I was left with
6 that they were aware of the environmental issue,
7 that leakage was and could be a problem unless
8 attention was paid to maintenance and the like and a
9 conversion did take place, there was some return of
10 old material to be destroyed, I remember that.
11 There was nothing in a, in a negative way that
12 stands out as being a real problem. So everything
13 appeared to be to me kind of impression.
14 Q (By Mr. Hausman) All right. Do you
15 recall receiving any reports of leaking heat
16 transfer medium system at the Reynolds Massena
17 plant?
18 MS. RUTTER: Objection to the
19 overbroad and vague form of the question.
20 A I just, no, nothing stands out in that
21 area.
22 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Do you recall
23 receiving any reports of a, an explosion of the HTM
24 system that took place in the 1950s at the Reynolds
25 Massena plant?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063985
William Papageorge Protected Material
139
1 A Explosion in the '50s. Reynolds
2 plant, no, I don't recall that.
3 Q Okay, let me ask to have marked as
4 Exhibit 28 a one page letter dated August 16, 1972
5 from W.B. Papageorge to Mr. B.P. Collins, Bates
6 number REY 000403.
7 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
8 Papageorge 28 marked for identification by the court
9 reporter.)
10 A I have read the exhibit.
11 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Do you recall
12 preparing this letter?
13 A Hmm?
14 Q Do you recall preparing this letter?
15 A Yes.
16 Q It states that, "In response to your
17 telephone request I am forwarding under separate
18 cover samples of Aroclor 1242 and Aroclor 1254." Do
19 you recall why you sent these Aroclor samples to
20 Reynolds?
21 A He asked for them.
22 Q Did he say why?
23 A Oh, you mean what hewanted them for?
24 Q Yes.
25 A I understood that his, he was going to
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063986
William Papageorge Protected Material
140
1 go to some laboratory somewhere and set up a program
2 for analyzing PCBs and he needed the, these samples,
3 virgin material as a standard to compare the unknown
4 against, and the 1242 and 1254 gave him the right
5 range of types that his analyst might want to look
6 at.
7 Q Did you talk to -- I'm sorry. You
8 didn't finish.
9 A I do not know the specifics regarding 10 exactly what he was looking and where.
11 Q Did you talk to Mr. Collins or did he
12 send a letter?
13 A Oh, he, he called me on the phone.
14 Well, actually he called Monsanto and it eventually
15 got transferred to my phone.
16 Q I see. Are you familiar with the name
17 Larry Tropea from Reynolds?
18 A Larry, how do you spell his last name?
19 Q Tropea, T-r-o-p-e-a?
20 A I've seen it in print. I don't know
21 the man personally.
22 Q You don't recall talking to him?
23 A No. 24 Q Let me ask to have marked as Exhibit
25 29 a four page document from W.B. Papageorge with no
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490

2 Bates number REY 000062 through 065.
3 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
4 Papageorge 29 marked for identification by the court
5 reporter.)
6 A I have scanned the exhibit.
7 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Do you recognize
8 this document?
9 A I do.
10 Q Is this a form letter?
11 A In a way, yes. We just type in the
12 addressee.
13 Q Okay. And I refer to the third and
14 fourth pages?
15 A I'm sorry?
16 Q The third and fourth pages of this
17 exhibit, there are various addresses, do you know
18 whether that indicates that Reynolds was sent copies
19 of these?
20 A Yes, it does. This is a copy of the
21 labels that were typed, and before they were affixed
22 either to the letter or to the envelope, they were
23 photographed to give us a record.
24 Q And why did you prepare this letter?
25 A Well, as it says in the letter, I got
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063988
William Papageorge Protected Material
142 -
1 a call, one of many calls from EPA representatives '
2 wanting to know names of our customers, the types of
3 PCBs they bought, how much they purchased, when, all
4 those details, and Monsanto resisted that, but the,
5 I sensed that the pressure was building and I wanted
6 the customers to know that we were trying to avoid
7 disclosing a customer list, for many reasons that
8 are understood by industry. Anyway, I just wanted
9 them to know that the day may come when we would be
10 forced to divulge such a list, and that was the
11 purpose of this, as well as I took advantage of the
12 opportunity to again say don't get it in food feed
13 and so on. Next to last paragraph. 14 Q Okay. That was my next question. 15 Thank you.
16 Was there a point in time after 1972 17 where Monsanto -- let me start over. 18 Was there a point in time after 1972 19 where you became aware that a single changeout of a 20 heat exchange system would not eliminate all PCBs in 21 that system?
22 MS. HUTTERs Objection to the vague
23 form of the question.
24 MR. HARCKHAM: Join.
25 MS. RUTTERs If you understand it, you
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063989
William Papageorge Protected Material
143
1 may answer.
2 A I'm having difficulty understanding,
3 the degree of success in changeout to totally
4 eliminate the presence of PCBs will vary with the
5 care and attention given to the changeout. Just
6 opening a spigot and draining doesn't do it. You
7 got to change gaskets, you got to clean out and
8 flush the system, if there's any residue in it it's
9 going to retain the PCBs, which will be loosened or
10 freed by the new fluid. Is that the, is that the
11 answer? I don't know that I understand your
12 question.
13 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Let me show you a
14 document. Let me have marked as Exhibit No. 30 a
15 three page document from D. Wood, no addressee
16 indicated on the front, August 7, 1978, Bates number
17 REY 000073 through 75.
18 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
19 Papageorge 30 marked for identification by the court
20 reporter.)
21 A I have read the exhibit.
22 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Do you recognize 23 this document?
2 4 A I have not seen it before.
25 Q Are you aware of whether Monsanto
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063990
William Papageorge Protected Material
144
1 instituted a program of advising its customers that
2 they may have to further change out systems to
3 eliminate or reduce residual PCBs?
4 MS. RUTTER: Object to the form of the
5 question.
6 A I'm aware of communications to
7 customers undergoing these changes in the Therminol
8 systems that covered the need for a thorough
9 flushing, circulating, running the system for weeks
10 before you drain the flush, sometimes it took a
11 second flush. I'm aware that they talked about the
12 degree of contamination in the vent tank they called
13 it, the storage tank, the degree of material that
14 deposited on the walls of the tank as well as within
15 the pipelines and how they could be loosened by the
16 new fluid. I'm aware of the pump packing, that's
17 the soft material that keeps the liquid from gushing
18 out off the, away from the pump, how that has to be
19 changed and the proper type selected for the future.
20 All these things are just very necessary, and they
21 were communicated, to the best of my knowledge.
22 Q (By Mr. Hausman) And let me ask to
23 have marked as Exhibit 31, stepping back a little
24 bit in time, a letter dated August 31, 1970, from

2 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
3 Papageorge 31 marked for identification by the court

5 A I have read the document.
6 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Do you recognize
7 this document?
8 A Yes, I do.
9 Q Do you know why you prepared it?
10 A I'm sorry?
11 Q Do you know why you prepared it,
12 excuse me.
13 A I think it's Dr. Hulcher?
14 Q Yes.
15 A He wrote to the Marketing Director,
16 Don Olson at that time, in which he asked questions.
17 Mr. Olson asked me to respond, and this is my
18 attempt to respond to those areas of interest.
19
Q
Okay.
And what is Pydraul usedfor?
20 A Pydraul is the PCB containing
21 hydraulic fluid.
22
Q
Okay.
Let me ask to have marked as
23 Exhibit 32 a series of consecutive documents with a
24 Bates range from REY 000001 through 036. I
25 represent that I put these together one, because

William Papageorge Protected Material
146
1 they're consecutive, and two, they're similar
2 documents for easy reference. I'm introducing them
3 in one exhibit so we don't have 36 different ones.
4 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
5 Papageorge 32 marked for identification by the court
6 reporter.)
7 A I have scanned through the exhibit.
8 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Thank you. While
9 you were employed by Monsanto, did you have occasion
10 to see sales summaries such as these?
11 A Oh, yes.
12 Q Is this somethingthatMonsanto
13 prepared in the normal course of business?
14 A Yes.
15 Q In what department were those
16 prepared?
17 A It was a service provided by accounts
18 receivable, I believe, department for the marketing
19 group.
20 Q And is that in St. Louis or elsewhere?
21 A St. Louis headquarters.
22 Q Let's look at the first page. Let me
23 again give the proviso, if you don't know the answer
24 to this, please let me know. I don't want you to
25 guess or anything, but only if you if you have

147 .
1 specific knowledge.
'
2 Note that the date is, in the upper
3 right hand corner is indicated as December '59?
4 A Yes.
5 Q Do you know whether the numbers
6 indicated as Sales This Year to Date, whether those
7 indicate total sales of that product to that company
8 for the full year?
9 A For the year '59.
10 Q So it wouldn't be an individual
11 shipment, it would be a total of all the shipments;
12 is that correct?
13 A Correct.
14 Q All right. Okay. I'd like to go
15 through the various products that are indicated
16 here. The first page reflects Pydraul F-9, is that
17 a hydraulic fluid?
18 A Yes.
19 Q And does that contain PCBs?
20 A Does it what? I'm sorry.
21 Q In 1959,did that material contain
22 PCBs?
23 A Yes.
24 Q Okay. Do you know what type of PCB it
25 contains in terms of, again, the four digit number?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063994
William Papageorge Protected Material
148
1 A One of the 40s, but I, I'm not
2 certain.
3 Q Okay. What is the appearance of
4 Pydraul F-9 at room temperature?
5 A I would say, as I remember, it's a
6 purple colored liquid that looks like about the
7 consistency of, let me say, mineral oil, baby oil.
8 Q Was it soluble in water?
9 A No. Well, I, everything is soluble to
10 a degree, but it's not like salt is soluble in
11 water.
12 Q Okay.
13 A It will, some components will
14 dissolve, some components might sink if agitated and
15 all, and the PCBs would sink if they're separated,
16 and some would float. So depending on the, the
17 conditions that it finds itself in, it could react
18 with water in any of those ways.
19 Q All right. If any Pydraul F-9 were
20 exposed to the air, would any PCBs volatilize?
21 A No. Very few. You could probably
22 measure with the sophisticated instruments today,
23 but for all practical purposes, no.
24 Q And did the PCBs in Pydraul F-9 have a
25 tendency to bond to soils?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490

William Papageorge Protected Material
149
1 A Yes.
2 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
3 foundation.
4 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Okay, let's turn to
5 the second page, Bates number I think 2? Is Pydraul
6 A-200 also a hydraulic fluid?
7 A Yes.
8 Q And how did that differ from Pydraul
9 F-9?
10 A It depends on the type of PCB used as
11 well as other ingredients. They're a little,
12 slightly different.
13 Q Do you recall what type of PCB was
14 used on that Pydraul?
15 A No, I'd have to see the recipes again
16 to refresh my memory.
17 Q Was that also a purple, oily liquid?
18 A Yes.
19 Q Same solubilitycharacteristics that
20 you described for F-9?
21 A Well, the solubility varies with the
22 type of ingredients, so since they're not identical,
23 there, there will be a difference.
24 Q Do you knowwhether it was more
25 soluble or less than F-9?

150
1 A No, I wouldn't. I'd have to see the
2 ingredients again.
3 Q Okay. Referring to the third page,
4 Aroclor DIST 1248, I take that to mean that's a 1248
5 PCB; is that correct?
6 A That's right.
7 Q Is that a heat exchange fluid?
8 A Yes.
9 Q What were the characteristics, what
10 was the appearance of Aroclor 1248?
11 A Well, it's a little bit heavier than
12 baby oil that I used the reference earlier. In its
13 pure condition it's clear as water. It may have a
14 tinge of yellow occasionally. In use it could
15 darken after years of use, it could have a deeper
16 tinge of yellow.
17 Q And what are the solubility
18 characteristics of Aroclor 1248?
19 MR. HARCKHAM.* Objection, lack of
20 foundation.
21 A As I remember, the solubility of 1248
22 is less than 200 parts per billion in water at room
23 temperature. Less than that.
24 Q (By Mr. Hausman) If water and Aroclor
25 1248 were in contact, would those two substances
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063997
William Papageorge Protected Material
151
1 separate?
2 A Yes.
3 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection.
4 Q (By Mr. Hausman) And which is denser,
5 water or 1248?
6 A Sorry?
7 Q Which is denser, water or Aroclor
8 1248?
9 A 1248 would sink to the bottom.
10 Q So there would be water on top?
11 A Water on top.
12 Q Okay. Turning to the document in this
13 set with the Bates number ending 10? Therminol FR-2
14 I believe we spoke about, could you remind me, what
15 was the Aroclor number for FR-2?
16 A 1248.
17 Q Is the appearance of Therminol FR-2
18 the same as Aroclor 1248?
19 A Yes.
20 Q And the characteristics that we
21 described are the same?
22 A Identical.
23 Q Turn to the page with the Bates number
24 ending 18, it's somewhat difficult to read but it
25 seems to indicate Pydraul 135? I'll let you get to
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063998
William Papageorge Protected Material
152
1 that page.
2 A That's what I, that's what I read.
3 Q Is Pydraul 135 a product that Monsanto
4 sold?
5 A Yes.
6 Q And for what use?
7 A Hydraulic fluid.
8 Q And what was the correspondingAroclor
9 number with Pydraul 135?
10 A I don't remember all those Pydraul
11 recipes.
12 Q Okay. So you don't know off the top
13 of your head?
14 A I don't recall it, no.
15 Q Let's have marked as Exhibit 33 a
16 multipage document with the legend New York PCB
17 content, 1968 to 1969, Bates range REY 000262
18 through 278.
19 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
20 Papageorge 33 marked for identification by the court
21 reporter.)
22 Q (By Mr. Hausman) That's I believe to
23 be another document with customer names redacted
24 except for Reynolds.
25 A I have scanned the exhibit.
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000063999
William Papageorge Protected Material
153
1 Q Okay. Mr. Papageorge, understanding 1
2 that the names of customers have been redacted out
3 of this document, have you seen documents in this
4 form before when you were at Monsanto?
5 A This is the first I've seen.
6 Q Okay. So you don't, you can't tell me
7 what the numbers refer to?
8 A I don't even understand it.
9 Q All right. Fair enough. Let me ask
10 to have marked as Papageorge Exhibit No. 34 a
11 multipage document, the first page reads, "Exhibit L
12 (Revised)," second page reads "PCB Waste Returns,"
13 Bates number REY 000279 through 285.
14 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
15 Papageorge 34 marked for identification by the court
16 reporter.)
17 A I have scanned the exhibit.
18 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Okay. Again with
19 the proviso that customer names appear to have been
20 redacted, do you recognize this form of document?
21 A I have seen similar documents. I
22 don't remember whether I saw this specific version.
23 Q I understand. Under what
24 circumstances have you seen similar documents?
25 A That was part of my attempt to keep up
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064000
William Papageorge Protected Material
154
1 to date on what was going on regarding return
2 material for incineration.
3 Q All right. Let me show you another
4 similar document I'm going to ask to have marked as
5 Exhibit 35, a document titled Item 5, Attachment B,
6 PCB Returns, Bates number REY 000286 through 291.
7 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
8 Papageorge 35 marked for identification by the court
9 reporter.)
10 A I have scanned the exhibit.
11 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Okay. And again, do
12 you recognize this form of document?
13 A Yes.
14 Q Is this something that Monsanto kept
15 in the normal course of business?
16 A Yes.
17 Q For both of these documents, Exhibits
18 55 and, or 35 and 36, who was responsible for
19 preparing these documents?
20 A I don't know.
21 Q The heading of 35 is PCB Waste Returns
22 and 36 is PCB Returns, you see that?
23 A I see that, yes.
24 Q To your knowledge is there a
25 distinction between those two items, a PCB return
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064001
William Papageorge Protected Material
155
1 and a PCB waste return?
2 A I interpret both of those as being
3 material return for incineration. There's nothing
4 to tell me that these are PCBs unused, still in the
5 original container being returned for other reasons
6 other than incineration.
7 Q Based on your knowledge of how these
8 charts were set up, if a company were to return
9 unused PCB fluid pursuant to the program in 1971,
10 would that amount be reflected on either one of
11 these charts?
12 A It would be reflected in this summary,
13 yes. As return material for dispose, for
14 incineration.
15 Q Okay. If a company also returned used
16 material that was taken out of its system, such as a
17 heat transfer system, would that amount be reflected
18 in these reports?
19 A Yes. Yes.
20 Q So there would be no distinction
21 between the two?
22 A That is true. At that year, 1971 and
23 on.
24 Q Okay if you refer to, yeah. Exhibit 34 25
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064002
William Papageorge Protected Material
156
1 (An off the record discussion was held
2 at this time.)
3 Q (By Mr. Hausman) Okay. Exhibit 34,
4 which is the first one that starts Exhibit L, if you
5 look on the page 283?
6 A 282?
7 Q 283. You see the quantityindicated
8 for Reynolds Metal, Massena, New York, indicated at
9 7,655?
10 A For Massena, yes.
11 Q Okay. And if you refer to Exhibit 35,
12 page 289, that same number, 7,655 is indicated. Do
13 you see that?
14 A Yes.
15
Q
Do you understand thosenumbers
to be
16 referring to the same returned PCB material?
17 A Yes, sir.
18
Q
Okay.
The customer-returnedmaterial
19 that was used for flushing out a system as opposed
20 to the PCB material itself?
21 A Yes.
22 Q Would that quantity bereflected in
23 either one of these charts?
24 A Yes. It would be part, it would be
25 considered a waste PCB, or incineration material.
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064003
William Papageorge Protected Material
157
1 Q So that as well would be included in
2 this 7,655 number?
3 A That's right.
4 Q Are you familiar with a process of
5 biodegradation of PCBs?
6 A I'm sorry, the bio what?
7 Q Biodegradation?
8 A Yes, sir. To a degree. I'm not a
9 biologist.
10 Q Okay. Is that something you ever
11 studied when you were at Monsanto, how PCBs
12 biodegrade?
13 A Yes, I was involved in monitoring,
14 staying close to Monsanto studies, both in Wales,
15 England, United Kingdom and in the United States,
16 St. Louis.
17 Q And based on your monitoring, what is
18 biodegradation of PCBs?
19 A Biodegradation refers to the situation
20 where bacteria that are acclimated to a PCB type
21 environment start to consume the PCBs as a food
22 source, and in so doing, they break up the PCB
23 configuration to the point where an analyst looking
24 for PCBs doesn't see PCBs any more. It's some other
25 material now.
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064004
William Papageorge Protected Material
158
1 Now, the rate at which this change in
2 PCBs takes place depends on how many chlorines are
3 associated with each PCB. The more chlorines
4 involved, the more difficult it is for the bacteria
5 to get into the, to get to the carbon.
6 So we find that the lower chlorinated
7 PCBs are more apt to disappear in such a situation
8 than the higher chlorinated.
9 Q Okay.
10 A So the residual that the analyst sees
11 is a distortion of the virgin material. All the
12 analyst sees is the higher chlorinated types, and by
13 the protocol set up by the analytical community, he
14 has to identify that as one of the Aroclors. And so
15 he takes a standard and says, well, it more matches,
16 it looks more like 1260. It may well have started
17 out as 1242. And that match that he's describing is
18 not a perfect match. It's the closest he can get to
19 it. The analyst on the next bench may decide to
20 call it 1254 because that's the way it looks to him.
21 Q Based on your knowledge in reading
22 information and also your knowledge as a chemist,
23 does this change in detection go in the other
24 direction? You just described the possibility of a
25 lower Aroclor being identified as a higher number.
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064005
William Papageorge Protected Material
159
1 Does it go in the other direction? For example,
2 could a 1260 be misidentified, that start -- let me
3 start again.
4 Could an Aroclor that started as 1260
5 over time be misidentified as a 1242?
6 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
7 foundation.
8 MS. RUTTER: I object to the vague
9 form of the guestion.
10 MR. HARCKHAM: I join in that
11 objection.
12 THE WITNESS: I'm not aware of any
13 studies that demonstrated that that could happen.
14 Nothing has been found where bacteria will take a
15 PCB and remove chlorine from it to get it to look
16 more like the lower chlorinated. I know, I've heard
17 nothing along those lines. The opposite has been
18 demonstrated.
19 MR. HAUSMAN: Let's go off the record
20 for about two minutes.
21 (A brief recess was held at this
22 time.
23 MR. HAUSMAN: Mr. Papageorge, I don't
24 have any more guestions. I thank you very much for
25 your patience.

2 EXAMINATION BY
3 MS. REIMER:
4 Q Good afternoon, Mr.Papageorge.
5 A Good afternoon.
6 Q As you know, my name's Nancy Reimer
7 and I'm from Mintz Levin and I represent Liberty
8 Mutual in this case. I just have a couple follow up
9 questions for you.
10 My first question is during the course
11 of your tenure at Monsanto, did you ever visit the
12 Reynolds corporate headquarters in Richmond,
13 Virginia?
14 A No.
15 Q Did you ever have any communications
16 with anyone from Reynolds corporate headquarters in
17 Richmond, Virginia, while you were at Monsanto?
18 A Yes, Dr. Hulcher and Mr. Collins, this
19 was over the telephone, and Dr. Hulcher was both
20 telephone and letter communications.
21 Q You testified this afternoon about
22 certain communications you had with Dr. Hulcher,
23 correct?
24 A Yes.
25 Q I don't want to revisit that, so my
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064007
William Papageorge Protected Material
161
1 question is in addition to that topic which you had
2 conversations with with Dr. Hulcher, did you have
3 any other discussions with Dr. Hulcher?
4 A Oh, I had several. Today I don't
5 remember the specific topics discussed, but it was
6 certainly more than just one contact.
7 Q Do you recall in general what you
8 discussed with Dr. Hulcher and can you put it into
9 the context of a time frame?
10 A In general? In general of course it
11 had to do with heat transfer alternatives and what
12 our experience had been. The topic was so, so
13 common amongst many calls that I got that nothing
14 stands out as being distinct to Reynolds.
15 Q Were the discussions with Dr. Hulcher
16 during the 1970s?
17 A No.
18 Q Did they predate the 19 -
19 A They were, no. It seems to me they
20 were in '72? As best I recall, it wasn't in early
21 '70s, it was either late '71 or early '72.
22 Q Do you recall if in that time frame in
23 1972 you had any discussions with Dr. Hulcher
24 concerning the changeover to the HTM system at the
25 Massena plant at Reynolds?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064008
William Papageorge Protected Material
162
1 A Would you repeat that little part? My
2 hearing is going on me.
3 Q Let me have the reporter read it back.
4 (Last question read back by the court
5 reporter.)
6 A HTM?
7 Q (By Ms. Reimer) I mean the heat
8 transfer medium fluid system.
9 A Oh, I thought it was a special fluid.
10 Yes, that was part of our general discussion. As I
11 remember, Dr. Hulcher was really trying to assure
12 himself that the information he was getting from
13 others in Monsanto kind of all fit together.
14 Confirming that he, what he had heard from others.
15 That's the impression I got, and I also got the
16 impression he felt that since I was the guy that was
17 flying into Washington and all, whether I heard
18 anything new that was coming down the pike at him,
19 and he wanted to be tuned in on that.
20 Q Did you have any discussions with Dr.
21 Hulcher concerning the specific system up in the
22 Massena plant that used the H -- the heat transfer
23 medium fluid, the specific process that was used up
24 in Massena?
25 A I remember the reference to the pitch
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064009
William Papageorge Protected Material
163
1 and the carbon. But I did not get details as to
2 exactly how the system was designed and so on.
3 Q What do you remember about the
4 conversation you had with him about the pitch?
5 A Other than he described what they used
6 the heat transfer medium for, to soften or fluidize
7 the pitch and, so that they could process it and go
8 about their business of making anodes.
9 Q Did you have any discussions with him
10 concerning whether there were any leaks in the
11 system that was used at Massena?
12 A Leaks. I don't remember specific
13 mention of leaks.
14 Q Do you remember any general
15 discussion?
16 A In general we talked about the need to
17 prevent leakage, maintain the equipment, as soon as
18 a leak occurred, to address it immediately, take
19 care of it, either put a pan under it or put a
20 wrench through the pipe or whatever it takes to stop
21 it. We talked about those kinds of things in
22 general.
23 Q Did Dr. Hulcher ever convey to you
24 that the Massena plant had a problem with leaks or
25 the, with the wear in the system or anything of that
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064010
William Papageorge Protected Material
164
1 nature?
2 A No, I did not get that impression, no.
3 Q And this was in 1971, '72, right? 4 A Late '71, '12, as best I can place it.
5 Q Did you discuss any other part of the 6 Massena plant with Dr. Hulcher?
7 A No.
8 Q Did you have any discussions with him
9 about whether the pitch ever interacted with the
10 material containing PCBs at any point in time in the
11 process?
12 A I don't remember that at all, no.
13 Q Now, I believe you stated you also had
14 conversations with Mr. Collins? Did I get that
15 right?
16 A I remember Mr. Collins' telephone call
17 where he asked for the samples.
18 Q Which, that's what you talked about
19 this afternoon with Mr. Hausman, right?
20 A Yes.
21 Q Right. Did you have any other
22 conversations with Mr. Collins?
23 A I don't recall any other.
24 Q Okay. Who was Mr. Collins?
25 A He was with Reynolds, of course, and
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064011
William Papageorge Protected Material
165 .
1 I, I jumped into a conclusion, assuming that he was'
2 a chemist, asking for samples to work in his
3 laboratory. I didn't feel I had to ask him, "Are
4 you the President," or anything like that.
5 Q Do you recall what the time frame was?
6 A The time frame?
7 Q Yeah, that he asked you for the
8 samples ?
9 A I don't remember right now, no. The
10 letter that I wrote to him responding to his request
11 ought to place the timing.
12 Q Contemporaneous with the letter, it
13 would be -
14 A Oh, yes, within 24 hours.
15 Q Okay. When you were testifying this
16 afternoon, and I believe you were talking about
17 Exhibit 27, which was a sales meeting on April 27 of
18 1971, and you were asked how Reynolds, and I don't
19 want to put words into anyone's mouth, so I'll just
20 paraphrase the background question, how Reynolds
21 reacted when they were told that there were the
22 problems with the use of PCBs and they were being
23 phased out, and you responded by saying once the
24 problem was understood, it was resolved in a prompt
25 manner. Do you recall that?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064012
William Papageorge Protected Material
166
1 A Yes.
2 Q What do you mean by "once the problem
3 was understood," and understood by whom?
4 A Well, by the people within the
5 Reynolds organization who were approached and
6 informed by Monsanto, either by mail or personal
7 contacts.
8 Q Did youknow who those people are
9 specifically? In other words, was it Dr. Hulcher or
10 was it Larry Tropea or was it somebody else, if you
11 know?
12 A Oh, gee, I don't know the names of the
13 people, no.
14 Q And when you said "once the problem
15 was understood," do you know how long it took
16 Reynolds to understand the problem? Was this
17 something that went on for a few months or -
18 A Oh, I have no feel for the timing.
19 Q Okay. Do you know if Reynolds
20 challenged Monsanto's directives in any way? Did
21 they say, well, you know, maybe this isn't exactly
22 right and there's not a problem with these, or -
23 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection.
24 A I've never been, I have no feel for
25 that. Never heard anything along those lines.
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064013
William Papageorge Protected Material
167
1 Q (By Ms. Reimer) Is that something we
2 should ask Mr. Danzer?
3 A Oh, I don't know. Of course you can,
4 I just
5 Q Did I understand you correctly when
6 you said that Mr. Danzer assisted in this, in the,
7 with the customers and the process of discontinuing
8 the use of PCBs?
9 A I think we're, at least I see two
10 different issues here. One is the awareness that
11 PCBs are an environmental problem and the need to
12 prevent it from getting to the environment. The
13 other program is the notice that said starting as of
14 this day, we will no longer be able or were willing
15 to supply these PCB type heat transfer fluid. Two
16 different things.
17 Q Which one was Mr. Danzer involved in,
18 to your knowledge?
19 A He was involved with the conversion
20 program.
21 Q Thank you for clearing that up for me.
22 I'm just going to ask you a simple
23 background question. You testified that you've
24 earned a Bachelor's Degree and a Master's Degree,
25 have you also earned any type of certificates,
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064014
William Papageorge Protected Material
168
1 professional certificates of any type? I saw the
2 initials P.E. after the name on your card. What is
3
4 A Oh, Professional Engineer, I'm a
5 Registered Professional Engineer in the State of
6 Missouri, and in order to get that I had to pass an
7 examination, a written test.
8Q 9 just --
Is the P.E. a series of tests or is it
10 A I'm sorry?
11 Q To earn a P.E. do you take a series of
12 tests, or is it just one test?
13 A Mine was an all day affair, it could
14 have been a compressed series. There were different
15 documents handed to us throughout the day. Two in
16 the morning and one in the afternoon kind of
17 approach.
18 Q Did you have to take a course to study
19 for your P.E. exam?
20 A I did. I did.
21 Q Who did, who sponsored the course? 22 A The course was offered out at
23 Washington University on Saturdays, and it took
24 several Saturdays to complete.
2 5 Q When did you earn the P.E.?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064015
William Papageorge Protected Material
169
1 A About 1963 or 4.
2 Q Pardon my ignorance, but is a P.E.
3 awarded in a specific area? Like you're a
4 Professional Engineer in the area of, or is it a
5 general type thing?
6 A It's a general registration. There
7 are some caveats about what you should really be
8 practicing in and where you can use your seal and so
9 on.
10 Q And just with respect to the P.E. that
11 you earned, were there any restrictions? In other
12 words, you're not like a civil engineer, right, you
13 wouldn't be designing roads and highways?
14 A No, I wouldn't do that because I'm not
15 trained in that.
16 Q Right. You relate moretowards -
17 A Chemical engineering.
18 Q So when Mr. Hausman asked you about
19 the components and the makeup of certain Aroclors
20 and various chemicals, your knowledge was based on
21 your course of study?
22 A Yes.
23 Q Now, earlier you testified that
24 employees, when you were I believe the, in 1957 I
25 guess you were, became a plant, in charge of
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064016
William Papageorge Protected Material
170
1 engineering and maintenance at the plant?
2 A '57 --
3 Q Is that -
4 A Yeah, I was in maintenance, either a
5 supervisor or a superintendent, and I forget the
6 exact timing.
7 Q And you said that at that time you
8 were aware that any material handled in the plant
9 should not get in waterways? Did you make that
10 statement? The material handled in the plant
11 should, there were efforts made to keep it out of
12 waterways, water streams?
13 A As a Maintenance Supervisor?
14 Q Right. That one of your things was to
15 oversee the employees and make sure that the
16 materials at the plant were handled properly and
17 that they didn't escape into the waterways? Is that
18
19 A Not as a Maintenance Supervisor.
20 Q Then when was that?
21 A That thought followed all my
22 assignments, depending on how much waste my
23 activities were generating, and as a Maintenance
24 Supervisor, we didn't generate too many
25 opportunities for leakage. The production people

1 were supposed to drain the systems and get it ready'
2 for us to go to work on.
3 I was involved with this group that I
4 had mentioned that supports the operations with
5 delivery of goods and utilities and all that.
6 Q Let me, let me rephrase the question,
7 okay? And I'll take it out of the time context. I
8 believe you made the statement that any material
9 handled in the plant should not get into the
10 waterways, and employees were trained for the proper
11 handling of the material to prevent that from
12 happening.
13 A Yes.
14 Q And I believe you stated that every
15 employee knew that they should take steps or efforts
16 to avoid getting the product and the material into
17 the waterways?
18 A Correct.
19 Q Okay. Why wasthat? Why were such
20 efforts made to keep material from escaping into
21 waterways ?
22 A It just strikes usthat work with
23 chemicals that we don't want to see oil slicks in
24 water, and I think I mentioned the impact it would
25 have on the community's waste treatment plant, and
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064018
William Papageorge Protected Material
172
1 you can't ignore the fact that when you dump some
2 unknown chemical and it goes to a waste treatment
3 plant where the workers down there don't know what
4 you're sending them, you may be creating some health
5 problems. You don't know what others are sending
6 into that plant, and the mixing may create further
7 problems, so there's always this thought in mind.
8 In addition to upsetting the operation you can
9 introduce some health problems, and you can't ignore
10 the fact that economically it's wise not to lose
11 stuff down the sewer.
12 Q What if the sewer drain and waterways
13 led to a river or an ocean, not to a waste water
14 treatment plant?
15 MR. HARCKHAM: I object. I don't know
16 what you're asking him about, it's vague and
17 ambiguous.
18 A Well, we at Monsanto believe that you
19 cannot dump into the waterways because you don't
20 want fish kills, for example. You don't want
21 children swimming or wading in contaminated waters.
22 It just isn't good, not a good neighbor when you do
23 that to the community that you're operating in.
24 That's another thought that occurs to us.
25 Q (By Ms. Reimer) Is there anything
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064019
William Papageorge Protected Material
173
1 else you'd like to add?
2 MR. HARCKHAM; Objection.
3 A I don't know how to express it in
4 words except that this is perceived as being an
5 irresponsible act, if you just don't care and flush
6 it down the sewer.
7 Q (By Ms. Reimer) Okay, now, when you
8 say "it," are you referring to, let's say, materials
9 that have PCBs in it?
10 A Any material. PCBs included.
11 Q Whether it's PCBs or chlorides or
12 cyanides or fluorides or those chemical things?
13 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection.
14 A Even the materials you might perceive
15 as innocuous, they still shouldn't be flushed down
16 the sewer.
17 Q (By Ms. Reimer) Could I direct your
18 attention to Exhibit 2?
19 A Exhibit 2?
20 Q Yes. Now, I believe you testified
21 that you had seen documents like this one, not this
22 one in particular, but you had seen documents of
23 this nature?
24 A Yes.
25 Q Is that correct?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064020
William Papageorge Protected Material
174
1 A Yes .
2 Q And when you were employed by Monsanto 3 starting in 1951, I believe?
4 A Yes .
5Q 6 this?
Monsanto generated documents like
7 MR. HARCKHAMj Objection.
8 Q (By Ms. Reimer) Of this nature, and
9 they did that through the course of your tenure at
10 Monsanto, correct?
11 A Correct.
12 Q And I believe you testified that this
13 particular document, to the best of your knowledge,
14 was passed around to the list on page 2? There's a
15 list of people it was distributed to, but that it
16 also could have been distributed to customers of
17 Monsanto?
18 A Yes.
19 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, first of all
20 I object, I think it mischaracterizes earlier
21 testimony, and there's no foundation for the
22 underlying question.
23 Q (By Ms. Reimer) Well, the record will
24 speak for itself. Attached to the document on the
25 second to last page is an appendix. Do you see
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064021
William Papageorge Protected Material
175
1 that ?
2 A I see it.
3 Q Is it your understanding that the
4 appendix would also be distributed to customers of a
5 document of this nature describing, this particular
6 one describes a Monsanto drawing from the phosphate
7 division for the detailed construction of a storage
8 tank for Aroclor 1254?
9 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
10 foundation.
11 Q (By Ms. Reimer) While you were
12 employed by Monsanto through from 1951 through, I
13 believe you said 1986, so during your tenure, were
14 documents like this also prepared and disseminated
15 to the general public, customers?
16 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
17 foundation.
18 A Yes, on a perceived need basis. It
19 isn't for every chemical, for every tank or, it does
20 change, but the intent was the same.
21 Q (By Ms. Reimer) Do you have any
22 knowledge as to whether Monsanto ever distributed a
23 document of this nature, not this particular one but
24 something like this, to the people up at Reynolds?
25 MR. HARCKHAM: Objection, lack of
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064022
William Papageorge Protected Material
176
1 foundation. Vague and ambiguous.
2 Q (By Ms. Reimer) Well, the first
3 question is do you have any knowledge.
4 A I don't have personal knowledge.
5 Q Who would have that type of knowledge?
6 Who is responsible for passing out this kind of
7 information when the requests were received? What
8 department or group or -
9 A Primarily the marketing representative
10 out in the field who calls on the customers with his
11 briefcase full of brochures and so on.
12 Q From 1951 to 1960, do you know who the
13 marketing representative of Monsanto was with
14 responsibility for Reynolds?
15 A I don't know that.
16 Q Do you know that for any period of
17 time during your tenure at Monsanto?
18 A No, golly. Unh-uh. I just don't
19 remember.
20 MS. REIMER: Thank you very much.
21 That's all I have.

1 EXAMINATION BY
`
2 MR. HARCKHAM :
3 Q Mr. Papageorge, my name's Finley
4 Harckham, I' m representing Reynolds Metals in this
5 action and I 'd like to ask you a number of
6 questions. Just so we're all clear, it's 5 now, I
7 imagine I'11 be done probably in a half an hour to
8 an hour, do you want to continue with this at this
9 time?
10 A Sure. Yes. I'm ready.
11 Q I'd like to mark as Exhibit 36 a
12 multipage document with Bates numbers REY 001424
13 through 29.
14 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
15 Papageorge 36 marked for identification by the court
16 reporter.)
17 A I have scanned the exhibit.
18 Q (By Mr. Harckham) Do you recognize
19 this document?
20 A I do. I've seen it before.
2 1 Q Do you recall when you, when you first
22 saw it?
23 A Not vividly, no. It's just one of
24 hundreds of documents that are similar.
25 Q Okay. Do you know, was this, do you
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064024
William Papageorge Protected Material
178
1 know whether you saw this document in connection
2 with your work for Monsanto before 1970?
3 A Yes.
4 Q Do you know what this document was
5 used for?
6 A It was used to promote the use of
7 Monsanto's Aroclors and heat transfer systems.
8 Q And do you know to what groups or
9 categories of people this document was disseminated?
10 A Of course our marketing team, and in
11 turn their customers, both potential and current
12 customers received this.
13 Q Now, this document is dated September,
14 1949. Do you know how long it was in use by
15 Monsanto?
16 A Not specifically. It was at least ten
17 years, but I don't recall exactly when it was
18 revised or reissued.
19 Q Okay. On the first page, the very
20 first line references Aroclor 1248, and then the
21 second paragraph begins, "This bulletin describes
22 the physical properties of Aroclor 1248," and then
23 it goes on. Is it a -- we can strike that.
24 I'd like you to look, please turn to
25 page that's REY 1427?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490

179
1 A 27?
2 Q 1427, yeah, in the lowerright hand
3 corner that's -
4 A I have it.
5 Q Okay. Do you see on the left hand
6 side of the page there is a, a heading, Freedom From
7 Toxicity Hazard?
8 A Yes.
9 Q Now, this, thenthere's a, there is a
10 series of four paragraphs below that. Have you seen
11 that language in other Monsanto documents? The
12 language that appears in these paragraphs below
13 Freedom From Toxicity Hazard?
14 A Yes.
15 MR. HAUSMAN: Object to the form of
16 the question. You're referring to the whole passage
17 or a specific part?
18 MR. HARCKHAM: The whole, the whole
19 passage.
20 A I have seen similar wording. In fact,
21 one of the exhibits from Dr. Kelly has that.
22 Q (By Mr. Harckham) Okay. And was, was
23 there a period of time that you recall in which
24 Monsanto promoted Aroclor 1248 as being free from a
25 toxicity hazard?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064026
William Papageorge Protected Material
180
1 MR. HAUSMAN: Object on foundation.
2 A Yeah, the promotion involved not only
3 the material but the use in a heat transfer system
4 and in, under the proper conditions of use, the
5 toxicity hazard is substantially reduced, really
6 eliminated.
7 Q (By Mr. Harckham) I'd like to mark as
8 Exhibit 37 a multipage document with Bates number
9 MONS 078201 through 214.
10 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit

16 of the ones that we sent out before, but I do have
17 other copies. Here.
18 MS. RUTTER: Sent out for copying?
19 Thank you.
20 A I have scanned the article.
21 Q (By Mr. Harckham) Do you recognize
22 this document?
23 A It's been a while, but I, as I read it
24 or scanned it, it brought back some recollections,
25 yes.
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490

181
1 Q First on the front page, it's kind of
2 hard to read the title. Can you take a shot at
3 that?
4 A It's Aroclor Resins and Plasticizers
5 for Chlorinated Rubber.
6 Q And then down below that it says
7 "Technical Bulletin" -
8 A "Technical Bulletin," and I just
9 cannot read the bulletin number.
10 Q Okay. Then it appears to say "May,
11 1959" below that, correct?
12 A I see that, yes.
13 Q Now, up, up at the top there is in
14 handwriting the word "obsolete." First of all, when
15 is it that you saw this document for the first time,
16 do you recall?
17 A I don't recall.
18 Q Was it during the period prior to
19 1970, do you know?
20 A I don't recall specifically, but I was
21 aware of many of these Aroclor brochures while I was
22 at the Anniston Plant, and that's as close as I
23 could get to the timing.
24 Q Okay. Now, this says "Technical
25 Bulletin" on the front and it's got a number. Was
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064028
William Papageorge Protected Material
182
1 there a series of Technical Bulletins published by
2 Monsanto?
3 A Oh, yes. Yes.
4 Q What was the purpose of publishing
5 these bulletins?
6 A Primarily to supply information to
7 customers and potential customers of Monsanto
8 products.
9 Q Do you know whether, whether these
10 bulletins were directly given to customers? As
11 opposed to the information, as opposed to being
12 given to Monsanto employees who then would
13 communicate with customers?
14 A Well, it varied with the Business
15 Director of the product involved. Some them would
16 have mailings when the brochure was just printed and
17 revised. Others would take the approach of sending
18 it to their field representatives, and the field
19 representative was expected to drop off the copies
20 personally and have a discussion with someone at the
21 site that he visited.
22 So it varied, but in any event, the
23 intent was to get it into, out there in the hands of
24 people who might find it interesting.
25 Q In 1959, did Aroclor resins and
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064029
William Papageorge Protected Material
183
1 plasticizers contain PCBs?
'
2 A Some of them. Because some of the
3 Aroclors were not chlorinated biphenyls. They were
4 not PCBs.
5 Q But some did contain PCBs?
6 A Yes.
7 Q I'd like to mark as Exhibit 39, 38,
8 I'd like to mark as Exhibit 38 a multipage document
9 bearing Bates numbers REY 000875 through 890.
10 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
11 Papageorge 38 marked for identification by the court
12 reporter.)
13 A I have scanned the exhibit.
14 Q (By Mr. Harckham) Okay. Do you
15 recognize this document?
16 A Yes, I have seen itbefore.
17 Q Do you recall roughly when you first
18 saw this document?
19 A Sometime about the period '65 to '70.
20 Q Do you know when this document was
21 generated? I didn't see a date, but if there's
22 anything about it that -- well, let me, let me ask
23 you, refer you to page 888, page at the bottom?
24 A 888 .
25 Q Got that page? REY 888 in the lower
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064030
William Papageorge Protected Material
184
1 right.
2 A I see it.
3 Q Okay. Do you see under the heading
4 Take Ordinary Personal Care, it says, "Transformer
5 askarel has been made, handled and used for over 30
6 years without causing toxic or other ill effects."
7 Do you know when transformer askarel was first made?
8 A 1929 was the first application.
9 Q The year, with this reference to
10 askarel having been made and used for over 30 years,
11 does that mean that, does that date this document in
12 at least 1959 if that -
13 A The late '50s.
14 Q What, what was this document used for,
15 do you know?
16 A It was intended for the users and
17 owners of transformers with PCB type dielectric
18 fluids in them, especially for those who did their
19 own servicing of their transformers instead of
20 having someone come by and do it for them. It was
21 also intended for those service companies that were
22 involved in transformer maintenance, upkeep.
23 Q And when, when you saw this document
24 you think in the later part of the 1960s, it was in
25 use at that time by Monsanto?

WATER PCB-SD0000064031
William Papageorge Protected Material
185
1 MS. REIMER: Objection.
2 A Yes .
3 Q (By Mr. Harckham) So this document 4 had not been superseded by another document at that
5 time?
6 MS. REIMER: Objection.
7 MR. HAUSMAN: Without foundation.
8 A I don't recall any document that
9 covered this subject that superseded this document.
10 Q (By Mr. Harckham) And just so I'm
11 clear, this was a document that was given to
12 customers of Monsanto who used askarel; is that
13 correct?
14 MS. REIMER: I'm sorry, could you read
15 that back? I missed the question. I'm sorry.
16 Q (By Mr. Harckham) The question was is
17 this a document that was given to customers of
18 Monsanto who used askarels?
19 A It was given to customers of Monsanto
20 as well as customers of Monsanto's customers.
21 Q So for example, if GE sold a
22 transformer to customer X, this would go to customer
23 X as well as going to GE?
24 A If customer X was on Monsanto's list
25 of entities that purchased PCB fluids from Monsanto.

2 as Exhibit 39 a two page document bearing Bates
3 numbers MONS 098018 and 19.
4 (Defendant's Deposition Exhibit
5 Papageorge 39 marked for identification by the court

7 Q (By Mr. Harckham) The document
8 appears titled Data Sheet for Toxicological and Safe
9 Handling Information.
10 A I have read the document.
11 Q Do you recognize this document?
12 A I do not.
13 Q Okay. You see in the bottom of the
14 second page this document is dated March 31, 1961,
15 and it indicates that information was furnished by
16 Mr. Elmer P. Wheeler, Assistant Director, Medical
17 Department, Monsanto Chemical Company. I believe
18 you indicated before youknow Mr.Wheeler?
19 A Yes.
20 Q Turning back to page, the first page
21 of this document, Item No. 4 says, of the form says,
22 "Procedure in Case of Breakage or Leakage," and then
23 the, what appears to be typed in is, "Clean up as
24 with any lubricating oil or hydraulic fluid."
25 Now, you understand this to be a

WATER PCB-SD0000064033
William Papageorge Protected Material
187
1 reference to Pydraul 150, which is listed up at the
2 top of this document?
3 A That's my understanding, yes.
4 Q Now, as of March 31, 1961 -- strike
5 that.
6 In 1961 did you have an opinion or a
7 practice as to how Pydraul should have been cleaned
8 up in the event of breakage or leakage? Breakage of
9 equipment or leakage of equipment?
10 MR. HAUSMAN: Objection, foundation.
11 MS. REIMER: Objection. You mean
12 Pydraul 150 or any kind of Pydraul?
13 MR. HARCKHAM: We'll say Pydraul 150.
14 A In 1961, the perception and
15 understanding was such that the advice typed there
16 in line 4 was appropriate.
17 Q (By Mr. Harckham) As Pydraul 150, in
18 1961, did that contain PCBs?
19 A Yes.
20 Q In 1961, in terms of your
21 understanding at that time, was this same procedure
22 appropriate with respect to any PCB containing
23 fluids?
24 MS. REIMER: Objection.

8 have you had a chance to review Exhibit 40?

11 A I have never seen it before.
12 Q Okay. Do you see in the bottom of the

14 the last exhibit, it indicates that information was
15 furnished by Mr. Elmer P. Wheeler of Monsanto. In
16 1963, now, actually let me refer you back now to the
17 front page, where you see this document is dealing
18 with Pydraul AC?
19 A I do.
20 Q In 1963 did the Pydraul AC contain
21 PCBs ?
22 A Yes.
23 Q And you see under No. 4, it says,
24 "Procedure in Case of Breakage or Leakage: Clean up
25 as with lubricating oil"?

189 .
1 A I do see that.
1
2 Q In 1963, was it your understanding
3 that that was an appropriate way to clean up Pydraul
4 AC that may have spilled?
5 MR. HAUSMAN: I object on foundation
6 and also vagueness.
7 A Based on the knowledge of 1963, that's
8 an appropriate statement.
9 Q (By Mr. Harckham) And was that an
10 appropriate statement based on 1963 knowledge with
11 respect to any PCB containing fluid?
12 A Yes.

14 question on breadth and vagueness grounds.

3 Q Do you know what, is this a Monsanto
4 publication?
5 A It is.
6 Q Do you know what it was used for?
7 A It was used to again share with
8 customers of Monsanto, or the customers of
9 Monsanto's customers who were involved with PCB
10 containing dielectric fluids, and it relates to the

14
A
Not specifically.
I know that
15 periodically this subject was addressed in revised
16 issues of this type of brochure.

2 Q (By Mr. Harckham) Mr. Papageorge, do
3 you know when Monsanto first informed its customers
4 of a possible environmental hazard associated with
5 PCBs ?
6 A Monsanto in March of 1969 informed its
7 customers of huge volumes of PCBs, so it was a, it
8 was not all customers, it was a, a list of those who
9 purchased the most. They were informed of the
10 evolving evidence as it existed as of March 1969.
11 That was the first attempt to communicate the PCB
12 environmental issue.
13 Q Did that group include Reynolds
14 Metals, do you know?
15 A I don't believe so, no.
16 Q Were, was that group in March of '69
17 told, if you know, that there was an environmental
18 problem associated with PCBs, or was it just told,
19 I'm trying to get a sense of what they were told
20 about the situation. Were they told there was a
21 problem or were they told there were allegations or
22 what, what were they told?
23 MS. REIMER: Objection.
24 A The, as I recall the letter, it
25 informed them of the recent findings by some

1 laboratories throughout the world that a material
2 that was PCBs -- at that time it was not referred to
3 as PCBs, it was polychlorinated biphenyls -- were
4 found in samples taken from the environment, that
5 care should be taken not to let the PCBs escape to
6 the environment, and in essence, we'll let you know
7 more as we learn more. That's what that particular
8 letter indicated.
9 Q (By Mr. Harckham) Okay. What was the
10 next communication from Monsanto to its customers,
11 do you know?
12 A The next formal communication took
13 place in February of 1970 to all customers on record
14 with Monsanto of PCBs.
15 Q Let's mark as Exhibit 42 a two page

Q
(By Mr. Harckham)
Do you recognize
it?
A I do. Q Is this the letter you just referred
to, February, 1970, to Monsanto's customers? A This is one of similar letters, and
this particular one addresses the hydraulic fluids
sold by Monsanto that contained PCBs.
Q Was there more than one form of letter
that was sent out in February of 1970?
A It's, I don't know about the use of
the word "form."
The subject was essentially the
same except that for the dielectric use, it referred
to the dielectric application.
For the heat
transfer use, the different one, and for the, what Monsanto called the plasticizer use, which was in
essence miscellaneous use, had another version.

Q
Okay.
Did you participate in drafting
the letters in their different versions?
A I did.
Q Do you see, well, can you, can you
read the letter and indicate what sections of this,
if any, were identical or substantively identical
among the different letters?

The first paragraph for sure.
My
reason for hesitating, I, I don't know how to
include in my comments or answer the reference to
the dielectric, the askarels that we talked about
earlier.
Q Maybe I can, maybe I can shortcut
this.
Do you see the section, the paragraph that
begins on the first page, "We would like to point
out the following additional facts," and then No. 2
says, "PCBs with a chlorine content of less than 54
percent have not been found in the environment and
appear to present no potential problem to the
environment."
Was that paragraph or that message
conveyed in each of the letters, if you know?

A Correct. Q Just so I'm clear, Aroclor 124 -- does
Aroclor 1248 have a lower, have a chlorine content
of less than 54 percent?

A Which was a partial list, really.
Q
Okay.
And do you recall whether the
quoted language here is in fact the language that
was placed on the labels in May of 1970 that you
referred to earlier?
A
There was an
additional word, the word
"extreme" was added before the word "care."

Can I just note for the
word that the document says there's an attachment
but the attachment isn't attached?

appears that the attachment was going to be a copy

(By Mr. Harckham)
I'd like to refer
you back to Exhibit 31, please, that was marked

second sentence that begins, "Our studies to date
have confirmed our suspicions that the higher
chlorinated biphenyls are more persistent than those
containing less chlorine."
Do you recall which, which chlorinated
biphenyls by number you were referring to as the
higher chlorinated biphenyls?
A That's the 1254 and higher.
Q In 1970 what, what were the different
uses of Aroclors?
You mentioned heat transfer,
fluid, dielectric fluid, hydraulic fluid, what were
the other uses at that time?
A As an ingredient in paints and varnishes and lacquers, an ingredient in adhesives,
an ingredient in caulking, as a plasticizer in
various plastic, and we saw earlier chlorinated
rubber application.
The carbonless copy paper that
was popular back then had PCBs in it.
It was
involved in some printing inks.
That's all that
comes to mind at the moment.
Q And with respect to heat transfer
applications, was, were Aroclors used as a heater
for buildings, heating fluid for buildings?
A Yes. Q They would go in a radiator?
CARDINAL REPORTING COMPANY (212) 227-9490
WATER PCB-SD0000064046
William Papageorge Protected Material

1 A Yes, some buildings, yes.
2Q 3 in 1970?
And it was still used for that purpose
4 A Yes.
5 Q And was Aroclor used in food
6 processing?
7 A Yes.
8 Q In what ways, do you know?
9 A Primarily as a heat source to heat
10 cooking oils that are used in, say, potato chips and
11 fried fish and fried chickens, those kinds of
12 applications.
13 Q When you were in the plant in Alabama
14 in the late 1960s, did that plant have a waste water
15 effluent stream?
16 A Yes. 17 Q Was there any testing done of that
18 stream during the period you were Plant Manager
19 there to determine whether there were PCBs in that
20 waste water effluent?
21 A The analytical methodology available
22 then would never have picked up the small amount of
23
PCB in that water.
The PCB, being heavy, would sink
24 to the bottom of the settling pond and combine with
25
the limestone bed that it was exposed to.
Then that

201 -
bed, along with the PCBs, would be bulldozed out and
taken to a landfill. So the water that left would be the
water that sort of decanted off of this pond, and
there was no methodology that would have picked up
the PCBs in that water.
Q Did there come a time later when you
learned that there were PCBs in that water?
A Yes. Q When was that? When did you learn
that?
A I, the best I can say, about 1970,
after, after getting the methodology in place and
the instruments and taking samples and confirming
it, about 1970s.
Q How much, do you know how much PCB was released in that waste water?
A No, I don't.
Q
We have looked
at a couple of
documents which, well, let me be specific.
Let me
refer you back to Exhibit 42, please.
You see that,
and again, back, the numbered paragraph 2 at the
bottom of the first page?
A Yes.
Q
The sentence that
says,"PCBs with a

202
chlorine content of less than 54 percent have not
been found in the environment and appear to present
no potential problem to the environment," for how
long was that your understanding?
A Oh, I would suggest that it lasted for
about a year.
During 1970 more and more information
was coming in, so by the end of '70, early '71, the
lower chlorinated types were found in samples near
the users' plants.
As distinguished from the pine
tree needle and the child's hair approach.
Q
Right.
Did you communicate that
information to Monsanto's customers?
By you I mean
Monsanto. A
Not in a formal letter like this.
That was passed on in the normal course of a
followup on the PCB issue and used the, we used the
marketing people as our primary spokespeople.
Q And if I understand you, is that,
would that have begun in 1971?
A Late '70 for sure, and early '71, yes.
Q And do you know if that was communicated to Reynolds Metals?
A I have an understanding that it was.
But I personally did not tell them myself. Q What is your understanding of how it

WATER PCB-SD0000064049
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25
William Papageorge Protected Material
203
was communicated to Reynolds?
A It seems that I, I recall that the
marketing team out of New York area calling on
Reynolds Metals, along with other customers, not
specific, not just, it's not isolated, just Reynolds
Metals, but they called on them and did mention the
latest, the status of the findings of all these
laboratories.
That was being done so, so frequently
with customers that it became one of, nothing stands
out any more in my memory.
Everybody was in on the
information chain.
Q In your job beginning in 1970 as the
Manager for Environmental Control, did you have an
occasion to give advice to any plant personnel
either at Monsanto plants or other plants as to what
to do in the event of a spill of a PCB fluid onto a
concrete floor?
A That was a frequently discussed
subject, yes.
Q What was your, did you give advice as
to how to handle that?
A I would give him what Monsanto was
doing.
If it ended up on the floor, the primary
objective was to contain it so you maintain some
control of it, to avoid the impulse of grabbing the

hose and hosing it down the sewer, to use some
absorbent to capture it, and then to take that
material, whether it be sawdust or clay or sand,
take it to an approved burial site.
The approved
sites, of course, varied from county to county and
state to state at the time.
The emphasis that I personally placed
was to avoid using detergents to scrub your floor
clean, and where possible, block your sewers and
preferably put curbing so that if there is a spill,
that it's contained in this miniature bathtub so you
can manage to control it more effectively.
That's
the kind of discussion that came up many times.
Q I'd just like to follow up on some
questions that were asked before about when Monsanto
stopped producing PCB materials.
Can you just give
a sort of a short chronology of, just so we, I'm
sure we have the complete story as to when the
different PCB containing materials were
discontinued?
A Shall I cover all of the uses, or just
those of interest to you?
Q I'd like all of them, please, if you
recall.
A
All of them?
I'll try.
My dates will

not be pinpoint accurate, but.
As of August 30,
1970, all sales to these uses that I am going to
call miscellaneous uses, the paint, the varnish, the
caulking, were terminated.
Q
Okay.
If I can interrupt you for a
second, were those the open uses you referred to?
A Yes. Q In other words, not within a close,
the material was not used within a closed system?
A
That is correct.
The carbonless copy
paper took some technical effort to find a
replacement, so that didn't terminate until early
1971, about six months later.
Starting in '71 also, as I recall,
the, the use in heat transfer systems relating to
food was addressed and it was decided to stop selling to a food applications and to convert those
units with a non-PCB replacement.
In late '71, '72 period the program for finding alternative hydraulic fluids was in
place and the PCBs were replaced initially, because
we wanted quick action, with polychlorinated
terphenyls, which was the other member of the
Aroclor family.
Q Was this, you're saying it was late

William Papageorge Protected Material
206
'71 or '72, when were they replaced in terms of your
production?
A I think it was '71, '12 for a period,
about that time.
There were some successes in
finding a phosphate esther for hydraulic fluids, and
therefore, Monsanto was able to drop the use of chlorinated anything in its hydraulic fluids about,
about the middle of '71.
See, I'd have to look up some
documents to get those dates exact, but that was
kind of the transition.
So we ended up really with
hydraulic fluids being replaced by phosphate esther
type formulations, the heat transfer fluids
essentially were successful in the food application
conversions.
The program was started then in later
'71 to convert all heat transfer systems.
So '72
was an active year for the conversion of heat
transfer systems to the replacement fluids that were
not fire resistant.
Now, this involved, of course,
many technical changes in facilities, sprinkler
systems, dilute systems, and so on.
The dielectrics, a lot of effort was placed by Monsanto and others to find a replacement
fluid, and the efforts were not successful.
So the
dielectrics application continued up until Monsanto

just stopped selling PCBs in '77.

did any government entity ever ban the sale of PCB
fluids for any application?

Objection.

A No.
Q
(By Mr. Harckham)
If they had done
so, did you make it your business to know what the government's position was during that time period
about the sale of PCBs?
A
Oh, yes.
That was one of my major
projects was to get some guidance with government,
didn't see fit to do so.
They condoned or
encouraged the continued use in electrical
equipment.
Other than that, I found the government
was not very helpful.
That's my personal
evaluation.
Q They didn't ban the use for any
application at that time?
A They did not ban until they passed the
Toxic Substances Control Act in 1976?
I think that
was the date.
And that act specifically mentioned
PCBs and called for a termination of manufacture and

But Monsanto was able to terminate
in 1977.
Q When you were a Plant Manager in the

there was a potential hazard associated with those
materials, that the manufacturer would bring that to
your attention?

I mean -
MR. HARCKHAM:

was a problem with a potential hazard of toxicity
associated with a chemical that you purchased in

whether it was appropriate to clean up Pydraul 150
leaks or breaks as with any lubricating oil or
hydraulic fluid.
Do you recall that testimony?
A I do.
Q
Let me ask you this.
In the time
period of 1961, were there, was it appropriate to
clean up lubricating oils and hydraulic fluids?
A Well, I can only speak for Monsanto's
practice, we would never flush lubricating oil or
baby oil, even, down the sewer.
Q
Okay.
Would you consider it
appropriate to allow lubricating oil or hydraulic
fluid to drain into a body of water?
A
No.
Not if you could avoid it.
Q Would you consider it appropriate to
allow lubricating oil or hydraulic fluid that had
been spilled onto the ground to remain there without
any cleanup? A Are you talking about a pool of it or
a stain?

The chlorinated naphthalenes do not occur in induitry as individual com pounds. They will, therefore, be treated as e group. Any one product is i mixture but will hav a specific range of chlorine substitution. Those with three or less chlorine equivalents arc much less toxic than those with four or more.
These materials are used In electric wire insulation. They have also been used a* additives to special lubricant!.
The first problems were encountered in the use of these materials in wire in-ulntion. Skin problems may nrisc from contact with the cold material. The hot m. 'iieria) nnd, particularly, the vapors, may cause serious systemic poisoning as veil ns acne.
Injury to farm animals has occurred when lubricants containing the ehloroiinphtlialcnes were ingested. This may occur when cattle (cod becomes contami nated from the machinery in which it is processed, or from similnr lubricants ;i>-cd in farm machinery.

When lltc higher chlorinated naphthalenes arc absorbed they cause severe injury to the liver characterized at acute yellow atrophy. The systemic injury appears to be exclusively one of liver injury. Injury may occur from ingestion or iioin breathing hot vnpors. Some autliors have indicated that chlorinated naph thalenes may alio be absorbed through the skin.

The oilier most striking response lo contact wiih the cldm mated n.r,'h(!-..-.!euv; is chlornrnc. This usually occurs from long-*"rm contact wit It the ui.ucn ! or !ioin s much shorter contnel with hot vnpors, The reaction ia usually slow to o['(' !r v>.| may take months to return to normal.
The third problem tlmt has arisen from industrial uac ol chlorinated n 'i htiuleni has been hyperkeratosis in entile. Special lubricimu containing the chln.oi lene were used in machinery for pelleting feeds. Externally, there i, a thick U; itinited layer on the skin of the neck, shoulders, and the it her?. The g di IiIkM.t, liver, pancreas, and kidneys are affected. The condition is often fatal. \YI,;lc the i most common cause has been from grease that contaminated pelleted feed? hum the pelleting machinery, the same condition can occur from the injej-uon of special oils or greases used on farm machinery if they contain the chloronaphthalene.
Vapor Expoture. Drinker et at.1* exposed rats to vapors of chlorinated naphthalenes. As the material has a high boiling point and had to be heated to vaporise, it is possible that a certain amount of material may be concicn-cd either * on the cop or on the animal so that there may hate been some ore! intake.
Animals were exposed for 16 hours/day, In a case of lower chlorinated material l represented largely by a mixture of tri- and tctrachloronaphlhaienc, an average
concentration of 1.31 mg./cu, meter of nir essentially produced no effect oilier th .u a possible slight enlargement of the liver. The same matcriul at a concentration of 10.97 mg./cu, meter resulted in a slight liver injury. Exposure was repeated daily
for up to 4'/ months. Similar exposure lo the vnpors of a mixture of pontn- snd hexarhlo'onnphtkv
lene at an average concentration of 1.18 ttig./eu. meter produced definite lucr injury. At a concentration of 8.63 mg./cu. meter, there was some mortality, poor growth, and revere liver injury. The higher chlorinated material showed a g-e iter toxicity than the lower chlorinated material. ' Clinics! cares of systemic injury from this material have been reported by a number of authors. Sometimes the illness ws, preceded by skin lesion? and 'omctimes it was not. It is implied that tire systemic poisoning was largely due to breathing vapors. The following references are pertinent.l'':j

l,in, Tlio most. commonly olwcrvrd problem from I lie use in handling of
(lilorinalcd naphthaline* is llie clilorarnc. Tliis has boon observed on Iho skin of workers from a number of oiwralions where it lm< l>ecn used. Most of the clinical
reports listed previously under vapor exposure also include studies of chloracne. A detailed discussion of dermatological problems has been published by Cood and Pcnsky," The clinical aspects of this skin problem were also discussed 1 y Schwarts.*1 Another extensive report was given by the special bulletin of the State of Pennsylvania.M
Adams et nlV studied the nature of tlto response of rabbit's skin to this type
of material. They concluded that the response takes the form, first, of epithelial hyperplasia, second, inflammatory and degenerative change*, arid, finally, re generative processes.
This work is particularly interesting when we consider the nature of the hyperkeratosis observed in cattle. This is described in some detail in Leaflet Mo. 355, U. S. Dept of Agriculture, 1954. There is apparently a hyperplasia and a kcrntiniiation. It is noticeable in the neck, shoulders, and wither*. There are
also growths on the gums of the animal. This is alto discussed by Bell," and was
first described by Olafton."
.
This condition in animals is supposedly due to ingestion. The injury to the
liver and obvious systemic effect certainly would indicate that it is an important
factor. It it possible, however, considering tl>* reaction of the tissues of the mouth,
cheek, and neck, that some of Use material may act by direct contact with the
mouth and skin. Ahorpdon end Melabolitm. Cleary tl of." published an article on the ab
sorption and metabolism of the chlorinated naphthalenes. They indicated that
I he material was readily absorbed from an olive oil solution. They found no evi dence of storage in the lung, liver, skin, or kidneys. They did not find any cx-
cretion via the urine and concluded that the rhlorine might be removed from the ring and excreted as rhloride. They observed a rinse in urinary ethereal sulfate. There was no change in neutral sulfur.

Drinker1* proposed the following limits for the chlorinated naphthalenes: trichloro--49.9 per cent chlorine (10.0 mg./cu. meter); totra and ponta--56.4 per rent chlorine (1.0 mg./cu. meter); penta and hexa--02.8 pcT cent chlorine (0.6

The mixed |x>tvdcr> tre lientcd in a kiln, usually rotary, to about 1300 to MOOrC. The kilns arc healed by fuel jets of powdered coal, gas, or oil. Tho cement rock rarely contains more than 6 or 8 per rent quarts; the finished product usually less than 1 per cent, though occasionally it may contain up to 6.3 |>vr cent. The dusts are ordinarily classed as nuisance dusts but tlicir concentration may exceed the most lilscral ideas of pcrnmrible limits.
Tliorc are several dml-produeing 0|>ernlions and they are amenable to control measures. Some of these sources are: stone quarrying, crushing, grinding, the rotary kiln, screens, bagging o|icrntions, and tho loading and unloading of ears. Dun cloud*, if uncontrolled, not only are conducive to undesirable working condi tions but also constitute an atmospheric pollution nuisance in the community. llleeli'oMnlic precipitation as well as centrifugal collectors have been used success fully to remove the dust from the effluent air from kilns ami silos, and the amount recovered is said sometimes to cseecd 5 |*er cent of total raw materials. A method (hat has been successfully applied to the rotary kiln elsewhere (see Sand Refining) is to exhaust the hot kiln gases through baffled water-spray chambers and conduct the water flowing from the sprays through a settling basin from which tho sludge may be recovered. Tltc important factors in evaluating exposures tre the degree of dust control and tltc free silica content of dust particles less than 5 p in diameter, l.tttvy injury from expoure to cement duet, however, hus not been demonstrated and the most frequent, harmful result of exposure is that of skin irritation from the alkaline action of cement. In the mixing ami use of concrete, the irritant, alka line action of the wet mixture is similar to that of the cement dust, and both warrant suitable control to prevent prolonged contact with the skin.
. Chlorinated Waxes and Oils
Synthetic Chlorourattt. The synthetic chlorowaxcs comprise n number of chlorinated hydrocarbons that ere derivatives of na)dithnlent or diphenyl. Halowax is the tmdo name of one manufacturer for the chlorowaxes.
The damage that may oecur from inhalation, ingestion, and skin absorption of the fltlorownxes will vary with the degree of chlorine saturation of the com pound*. Tho amount of ilcniustitis and poisoning increases rapidly as the amount of chlorine in the waxes increases. Tito commonly accepted maximum permissible limit for atnKwqdmrie contamination with triehloronaphthalcne is 5 mg. per cubie meter of air. Pcntnchloronnphthalcnc, one of tltc chlorowaxcs eaiTying a high [HTcentage of chlorine is restricted to 0.3 mg. |>cr cubie meter of air,
Systemic poisoning from tlse chlorowaxcs is generally characterised by damage to the liver. Serious exposure may produce acute yellow atrophy. The

The workers should be required to take a shower every day Iscforc leaving the factory; it is well to provide supervision to make certain that this practice is complied with.
Air analysis for the chlorowuxes is most commonly performed hy passing the ir over heated platinum in an electrically licuted quarts tube; the waxes decom pose and die effluent gas is scrubbed in a column of glass bends moistened with sodium carbonate; die chlorine is converted to sodium chloride which is recover.d by washing the'bends, and is usually determined ncplieloinetrienlly. The impinger, using amyl aectatc as the collecting medium, has also l>ccn employed for collection of sample*; afterward the sample? arc burned, products of combustion collected and chlorides determined.

Hazards
The fuafli frer. Aroclor 1254 are quite obnoxious and are, v/hen Inhaled excessively, dangerous and hazardous, v/hen handling this material in relatively closed areas, ample ventilation (hoods in ex treme oases) should be provided for removal of the fuses from ths working area. The fumes attack the muooua membranes of the nasal passages and irritation of the manbranee and slight lung congestion may result from excessive Inhalation of the fuses.
The handling of Aroclor iscarried out at tanperatures ranging from 75 deg, C. to 130 deg. C.. thus presenting a minor hazard of burns resulting from contact v.ith the hot liquid. Such bums require no special treatment.
Precautions in Handling
Aroclor 1254 will readily absorb traces of moisture. It is esoentif.l that the mntorial be kept from contact rith water. All air coming in contact with the Aroclor should be properly dried by passing through a dehumidifying unit-such as a calcium chloride breuther. activated alumina breothor, or other similar dehydrating agent units. Calcium chloride breathers on all storage and handling tanks have been found to be completely satisfactory.
B. STOP ACE TAI.KS ,J'D TUI/PIIET, n,,UIR3TT
Although Aroclor 1254 is but slightly corrosive to metals, it promotes corrosion!by oxidation) of iron and steel. Hence, no handl ing equipment should be of steel construction where it cooes in con tact with Aroclor. All process piping handling Aroolor must be galvanized. All wetted pump parts must be either stalnleos steel or bronze. (Worthington 'Vorthite pumps have been found to be canplotely satisfactory for thl3 service.)
Storage and handling tanks nay be of steel construction if properly metallized v.ith zinctin, or aluminum on the interior sur faces coming in contact with the Aroclor. The metallizing should be done according to the following procedure:
1. Clean an area of the surface by sandblasting, or a similar method, to give a perfectly clean and roughened surface. The area oleaned should not be greater than oan be com pletely metallized within a few hours after cleaning.
MOHS 060034
WATER PCB-SD0000064091
-3 2. If zino - tin metallizing 1b used, a ooatinc of zine
0.005 inches thick should be sprayed on the cleaned eurfaoe. This is followed immediately by a ooatlnr of tin 0.007 inches think.
3. Metallization with aluminum has been found acceptable. All storage and handling tank3 should be amply provided T.lth deViumldifying breathers such as calcium chloride, activated alumina, eto. units. This is essential in order to prevent moist air from coming in contact with the .iroclor. A moisture content above 35 p.p.m. adversely affects the dielectric constant and the resistivity of the Aroclor. Storage tanks must bo provided with ample touting ooll aurfaoe to supply sufficient haat to the material to bring it to the proper temperature for pumping, etc. Heating coils should be either metallized stoel, or, preferably, steel ooils which have been gelvunized ufter fabrication. It is reoonnended that the steum pressure on all boating coils ohould not exceed 100 pounds per square inch gage; lower pressures should bo used where practicable. It is essential that all steon coil3 be completely free of even minute leaks, since this would introduce water into the Aroclor.
Before a newly oonstruoted storage tank is filled with Aroclor, it should be heated to a temperature of at least 100 deg. C to expel the moist air. The new tank should bo dried as much as is possible before charging. It would be beneficial to heat the tank, allow it to cool and pull in dry air through the dehumidifying breather, heat again, etc., until the tank is full of comparatively dry air before the initial filling of the tunk is started.
Aroclor 1254 must be heated to 75 deg. C to 90 deg. C. for pump ing or other transportation through pipe lines, etc. When extremely rapid handling is desired, it is permissible to heat the material up to 130 deg. C. It io not advisable to hold the material ut such temperatures over extended periods of time, however.
All handling pipe lines must be traced with steam lines and in sulation spoiled over the tv/o lines In order to keep the handling lines and the material up to the desired pumping temperature.

Aroclor 1254 la shipped in two types of tank cars, both of whioh are either aluminum lined or zlno - tin aotallized. On type of tank has the heating oollo inside the tank which are in direct contact with the Axoolor, The other type of tank is a double shell tank with heating; ooils between the inner and outer shells* Doth types of tank are tested for 60 pounds pressure and their steam ooils are tested for 200 pounds.
Beforo unloading the Aroolor, it is necessary to bring it to pumping temperature in the tank car* The steam coil outlet may be either trapped or throttled with a valve. It is recommended that steam pressures be limited to 100 pounds, particularly in the case of the coils being in direct oontact with the Aroolor. It will require from 6 hours to 12 hours to bring the material to pumping temperature (75 deg. C. to 130 deg. C.). depending on weathor conditions. .After the tank oar is emptied, the steam ooils must be blown clear of water and properly capped.
Aroolor 1254 must be unloaded by displacement v>ith dry air; There are either two or three connections on the tank oar dome, de pending on the car type. r.Tien three connections are found, there is one 2 inch unloading connection which extends to the bottom of the tank, one 1 inoh air inlet connection, and one pressure safety vent v.hich is adjusted to release any pressure in exoess of 60 pounds. The vent connection is hooded for protection. V.'hen only two connections are found, one is a 2 inch unloading connection und the othor is the safety vent. In this case, it is necessary to re move the 3afoty vent and introduce the displacement air through that connection. When unloading la complete, all connections must be replaced as received. It is requested that the empty tank be sealed immediately aftor tho conneotlons aro broken Is order to keep the tanks flllod with dry air during return shipment.
It is essential that the displacement air used for unloading be thoroughly dried by sane -dehumldifylng unit such as a oalolui chloride, activated alumina, or similar dehydrating agent drying unit. Required air pressures for unloading will depend upon the lay out of the unloading system*
An unloading dock v.ith proper piping connections should be pro vided at the rallroud track v.here the Aroolor is to be unloaded. This dook ohould be provided with the connection to the discharge piping, the displacement air piping, and suitable steam connections for use on the steam colls.

AROCLORS; TOXICITY
Since writing to you on December 3rd I have come across a letter of mine to Mr, W. M. Cooper, London, June 24/48, (copies to W.D.S., W.H.O., and others), calling attention to an article in the J.T.Baker Conpany1s "Chemist Analyst", Vol.26, No.2, page 33, September 1947.
I attach a copy of this article, and I think you will agree that the warning relates only to really bad exposure, not such as should occur in ordinary analytical work.
On Oct.27/47 Mr. Barhre of the Krumrarich plant sent a copy of this Journal to IT. Jenkins at Anniston for comment, Dr. Jenkins did not make any comments at the time, but tho following extract from Mr. Barbra's letter is interesting:
"During the 11 years of production here only one man evidenced dermatitis. He had also
shown similar sys^toms in several other departments. When making Aroclor #1270 which is flaked, a noticeable amount of fine fume solidifies in the air. If men are exposed to it during hot humid weather, the skin is irritaood, but we have not had any dlff.iculiv ir. curing cases of dermatitis from

On the Toxicity of the "Arochlors" (sic)
Robert M. Brovm, Chief, Industrial Hygiene Section, Division of Health, Dept, of Public Welfare, City of St.Louie, Mo,
A recently published article (Msglio, M.Martin, Chemist
Analyst, ^5 91* (19^6) ), has recommended the substitution of one of the "Arochlors" as the melting-point bath liquid in preference to the customary sulphuric acid. As stated in that article "Arochlors" are a group of chlorinated diphenyls produced by the Monsanto Chemioal Company,
,
There is need therefore to give warning. For the toxioity of these confounds has been repeatedly demonstrated, both from the standpoint of their absorption from the inspired
air as well as from their effects in producing a serious and disfiguring dermatitis when allowed to remain in contact with the skin. Since these effects have been repeatedly observed, industrial hygienists have taken care to see that the proper controls have been established wherever these products are
used. For exanple, the maximum allowable concentration of chlorinated diphenyl for an 8-hour working day is 1 milli gram per cubic meter of air.
It is probable that nothing like an uncontrolled industrial
exposure will occur in the laboratory. However, whether an individual is subjected to a possible acute exposure to chlorinated diphenyl, and its serious consequences, will
depend upon the else of the melting-point bath, the caution with which it is used, and the temperature to which it may be heated. Likewise, with careless handling of the material and the resulting contamination of the skin, clothing, labo ratory towels, work table surfaces, etc. the way is left open
for the produolng of dermatitis. Scrupulous cleanliness must be insisted upon wherever this material is handled.
The foregoing remarks have been prompted by the belief that in recommending tho use of & material with which is associated a potential hazard from the health standpoint, it is very important that the possible consequences be presented together
with recommendations for correct handling.

Sine writing my not of Deo.ll/51 1 bare ehanoed to learn that Anniston people had quite serious skin troubles! boils, blackheads and the like, among workers in Aroclors, especially 1269, around 1933*
A little browsing into the literature reveals quite a history of skin troubles and liver troubles (inoluding some fatal oases) attributed to heavy exposure to chlorinated diphenyls.
The chlorinated diphenyls are stated to be worse than ehloroaphthalenes, and to be more harmful the more chlorine they oontaint I still think, however, that the exposure in ordinary analytical work should not cause any trouble.

In the manufacture of chlorinated diphenyl, certain by-products, consisting mainly of a mixture of chlorotriphenyk, are produced. Some of these mixtures are even more powerful liver poisons than hexachioronaphthalene, according to the animal studies by Drinker and others. They have been used for similar purposes and are known by the same trnde name, Aroclor, as certain of the true chlorodipbenyls.

halation 3 Chronic Local: Irritant 3 Chronic Systemic: Inhalation 3;
Skin Absorption 2 MAC: ACGIH (accepted): 1 milli
gram per cubic meter of air. Toxicology: Like the chlorinated
naphthalenes, the chlorinated diphenyls have two distinct actions on the body, namely, a skin ef fect and a toxic action on the liver. The lesion produced in the liver is an acute yellow atrophy. This hepato-toxic action of the chlorinated diphenyls appears to be increased if there is exposure to carbon tetrachloride at the same time. The higher the chlorine content of the diphenyl compound, the more toxic is it liable to be. Oxides of chlorinated diphenyls are more toxic than the unoxidized materials.
The skin lesion is known as chloracne, and consists of small pimples and dark pigmentation of the exposed areas, initially. Later, comedones and pustules develop. In persons who have suffered systemic intoxication the usual signs and symptoms are nausea, vomiting, loss of weight, jaundice, edema and abdominal pain. Where the liver damage has been severe, the patient may pass into coma and die. Fire Hazard: Slight, when exposed to heat or flame (Section 6). Disaster Control: Dangerous; when heated to decomposition, they emit highly toxic fumes.

CHLORINATED HYDROCARBONS, ALIPHATIC
Toxicology: The substitution of a
chlorine (or other halogen) atom
for a hydrogen greatly increases
the anesthetic action of a member
of the aliphatic hydrocarbons. In ,
addition, the chlorine derivative
is usually less specific in its
action and may affect other tissues
of the body in addition to those of
the central nervous system; in
many cases the chlorine deriva
tive is quite toxic. Thus, chloro-j
form, in addition to its narcotic
qualities, may cause liver, heart,
and kidney damage.
As a general rule, the unsat
urated chlorine derivatives are
highly narcotic but less toxic
than the saturated derivatives, i
thus causing degenerative changes
in the liver and kidneys less fre
quently. In the saturated group,
the narcotic effect is enhanced
with an increase in the number of
chlorine atoms. However, there
is less relationship between the ,
number of chlorine atoms present
and the toxicity of the compound.
In dealing with these chlorinatec
hydrocarbons, it must be remem
bered that a toxic action may re
sult from repeated exposure to
concentrations which are too low
to produce a narcotic effect, and
which, consequently, are too low )
to give warning of danger. Indi
vidual susceptibility is also im
portant when poisoning by this
group of solvents is being con
sidered. Certain workmen may
be seriously affected by concen
trations that seem to have no
i
effect on fellow employees in the
same exposure.
Disaster Control: Dangerous; when
heated to decomposition, they emit
highly toxic fumes of phosgene;
they can react with oxidizing
materials.

The iAroclors
HE Aroclors have won a prominent place in the field of syn
thetics with unique properties to fill requirements not met quite perfectly by materials heretofore available. They have found wide usefulness in fields where their properties are of especial value.
Following' is a description of the properties of seven Aroclors. each of which is representative of a series. There are other Aroclors with slightly different characteristics in each of these series.
A study of this brief description will suggest means of em ploying the Aroclor in perfecting still other products, develop ment of which has been delayed by the lack of a material that exactly fulfills particular requirements.
zA Description of the Aroclors
The Aroclors vary from water-white mobile oils and pale yellow viscous oils to light amber resins and opaque crystalline solids. For each of these light-colored Aroclors there is a cor responding gray or brown-black grade.
The Aroclors are produced exclusively by Monsanto Chem ical Company.
Non-Flammability
The viscous Aroclor oils and the resins do not support com bustion when heated alone even at their boiling points--temperatures above 350*C. Most of the Aroclors flux readily with resin ous and pitch-like materials to give a product having a decreased fire hazard. When incorporated in nitrocellulose films the Aro clors retard the rate of burning.
HONS 081238
WATER PCB-SD0000064122
Electrical Properties The Arodors have extremely interesting1 electrical character
istics; high dielectric constant, resistivity and dielectric strength, and low power factor. Solubility
The Aroclor oils and resins are easily soluble in most of the common organic solvents and drying oils. The hard crystalline materials are in general less soluble than the Aroclor oils or resins. All Aroclors are insoluble in water. For more complete informa tion see the attached table. Compatibility data on Aroclors in nitrocellulose lacquers will be sent on request. Adhesiveness
The Aroclor resins adhere strongly to smooth surfaces -- to glass and metal or to smooth varnished or lacquered surfaces.
The softer Aroclors are suggested for difficult adhesive prob lems where a flexible non-drying waterproof material is necessary.
The Aroclor adhesives are thermoplastic; are readily applied hot without solvent; do not require high temperatures for easy application, and are set immediately upon cooling. Thermoplasticity
The Arodors are permanently thermoplastic. They appar ently undergo no condensation or hardening upon repeated melt ing and cooling. The clear Aroclor resins are now being pro duced with softening points up to 110'C. The opaque crystalline solids are produced with initial melting points up to approxi mately 180* C.
Non-Drying Properties The Aroclors arc non-drying, and when they are exposed to
the air, even in thin films, no noticeable oxidation or hardening takes place. However, when used as ingredients of lacquers, they do not retard the rate of drying of the lacquer films. Quick drying varnishes and paints may be made with Aroclor resins.
Vaporization Loss The Aroclors have low vaporization losses as shown in the
data in the table of physical properties.

MUNi O U i^ u
WATER PCB-SD0000064124
Toxicity
Experimental work in animals shows that prolonged exposure to Aroclor vapors evolved at high temperatures or by repeated oral ingestion will lead to systemic toxic effects.
Repeated bodily contact with the liquid Aroclors may lead to an acne-form skin eruption.
Suitable draft ventilation to control the vapors evolved at ele vated temperatures, as well as protection by suitable garments from extensive bodily contact with the liquid Aroclors, should prevent any untoward effect.
Odor and Taste
The solid Aroclor resins are almost without odor and taste at ordinary temperatures.
Stability
The Aroclors are remarkably resistant to the action of either hydrolysing agents or high temperature. They are not affected by boiling with sodium hydroxide solution. Because of their sta bility to heat, the Aroclors are useful heat-transfer media. Aroclor 1254 and particularly the less viscous Aroclor 1243 are recom mended for this purpose because they may be heated at tempera ture up to 325'C. (617*F.) in a closed system for long periods without appreciable decomposition and are at the same time non flammable.
Action on Metals
The Aroclors are non-corrosive. Mild steel exposed to the action of Aroclor 1254 or Aroclor 1248 in a closed system at 325*C. (617*F.) for 848 hours showed no pitting and the corrosion rate, as measured in inches of penetration per year, was 0.0021.
Water and Moisture Proofness
The Aroclors are water proof. When impregnated into orous rigid bodies they are effective water and moisture proofen. pecial Aroclor compounds are available for moisture-proofing such articles as paper and radio resistors and for water-proofing articles such as abrasive wheels.

The compound, essentially tetraddorohiphenyf, is a fire-resistant and non corrosive liquid, which does not crystallize at low temperatures. Handled properly, in well-designed fenced circulation heat exchangers which avoid localized overheating damage, the fluid gives satisfactory continuous service for many years without
Most significant, Aroclor 1248 is practically non-flammable. In one in stallation of record, a ruptured pipe spewed the hot fluid into gas flames: the fluid failed to ignite!
For general heat transfer, Aroclor 1248 has several other important qualities: it is highly mobile and can he readily pumped at temperatwes as km as SOT. If cooling is necessary, the heat transfer fluid can be put through a water cooler and used as a coolant.
Aroclor 1248 transfers heat (up to 000*F.) as a liquid. This liquid phase heat transfer makes it unnecessary to use the expensive pressurized equipment required by a heat transfer medium that operates as a vapor. Aroclor 1248 operates safely and efficiently with gas-fired, oil-fired, or electrical heat sources. It is used successfully in the following types of applications ....

HEAT CAPACITY rad Its BUtlon*hlp Co Donolty
Systematic aron exist in the various accepted pro cedures for making specific heat determinationsConsequeatly values may vary depending upon the procedure used. In practical operation, H frequently appears that the values for Aroclor 1248 shown in Figure 4 are somewhat low. Consequently, although these values have been accurately determined, they may be regarded as conservative.
When comparing the specific heat values of Aroclor 1248 with corresponding values for other heat transfer fluids, it is important to note that the density of Aroclor 1248 is much higher, relatively, than the density of other liquids used for heat transfer. Accord ingly, when comparison of heat capacity is made on a
vohane beats (which a most pertinent in equipment design and efficient operation) the heat capacity of Aroclor 1248 shows itself to better advantage than by direct comparison of specific heat values.
Although specific heat values are important, they represent only one of several important constants that enter into the dotations for calculating over all heat transfer efficiency.
Through the use of these conservative heat capacity values, it is possible that equipment engi neered from such data might be slightly "over designed.' This may be one of the factors that accounts for the exceptionally good operating performance of a number of highly successful commercial applications.

THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY and VISCOSITY
The tknMl conductivity values of Aroclor 1246 are shown in Figure 5. The curve shows this value over the operating temperature range, from 50*F. to00*F.. of Aroclor 1248.
As freshly charged into a beat exchanger. Aroclor 1248 has an initial viscosity of 74 (S.U.S.) at 130*F. which corresponds to a viscosity of approxi mately 5000 (S.U.S.) at 50"F. - which temperature is assumed for practical purposes to he about the limit at which Aroclor 1246 can be conveniently pumped with a centrifugal pump

Although Aroclor 1248 tends to darken in use. this darkening is not harmful and does not indicate decomposition. In actual use at Monsanto, it has not been found necessary to replace the fluid after seven years of continuous use; additional fluid is only added as necessary to make up spills or leaks.
In Figure 8. the horizontal line indicating vis cosity limit of pumpability at 50F. shows that the rate of viscosity increase based on a year's continuous service should permit Aroclor 1248 to serve approxi mately four years before increased viscosity may inter fere with its pumpability when cold. In practice. Aroclor 1248 has given satisfactory prmipahility for much longer periods. A simple S.U.S viscosity deter mination by the ASTM-D-88 method can be used for periodic checks on the fluid

STABILITY
Arodor 1248 ix an extremely stable chemical com pound. Tests over long periods of time have shown that 8B*F. is a safe maximum temperature for continuous operation la hostess that are properly designed and operated to dimfeate intense, localized overheating. At this temperature the fluid b 52*F. below the initial temperature of its boiling range, and consequently re mains a liquid.
Near its boiling point Arodor 1248 leads to dehydrohalogenate to a very slight but measurable degree. If this occurs as a result of accidental over heating. the small amount of HC1 gas evolved tends to pass through the vent tank without harm to the equipment provided that the system is dry.
Experimental observations using ideally-suited beat exchangers operating at a temperature of 050*F. with imposed nitrogen pressures of 30 and 70 psig. showed that application of pressure did not prevent this small amount of thermal decomposition, which also occurs when the material is heated above at atmospheric pressure.
When heated continuously at 650*F. under nitrogen pressure a gradual increase in the viscosity of the fluid occurs indicating that its service life would be limited to about 6 months to one year.
Results of operating at <300"F.. however, with out imposed nitrogen pressure indicate Aroclos 1248 can be heated continuously at this temperature for about 4 years before any viscosity increase could be expected to interfere with its pumpebility at 50" F. which is slightly below normal room temperatxses.
Provision should be made to prevent water contamination of the system. If the system becomes contaminated with water, any HC1 liberated by local ized overheating may dissolve in the water film which will float on top of Aroclor 1248 in the expansion tsni. The acidic solution thus formed can cause common. It is recommended that moisture be eliminated from the expansion tank by installing a moisture trap or by sealing the tank and applying 15 to 30 psig. of nitrogen gas. With exception of the expansion tank, the system should be kept full of Aroclor 1248 at all times to pre vent formation of air pockets where moisture may condense when the system cools off between periods of operation.
Many years of practical operating experience have shown that Aroclor 1248 b virtually non-corrosive to valves, piping, tanks, and jackets made of cast steel, steel, or stainless steel. In actual use. brass valves have been used satisfactorily.

SAFETY of OPERATION
Arocior 1248 cu be considered a non-flammable liquid; no fire point is obtained by the Cleveland Open Cup method oo heating to its boiling point (850*F.). The spontaneous ignition temperature**' is 1^88'F.
In actual use. the following reported accident in a heating system demonstrates the fire resistance of Arocior 1248 and the freedom it offers from the hazard of fire propagation. An operators failure to start the circulation pump when the gas heater was on resulted in excessive coil temperatures. The tine containing Arocior 1248 sagged into the fire chamber. A wekJ rup tured and Arocior 1248 poured into the red-hot fire chamber in contact with the flame. Dense smoke end fumes arose from the heater but there was no external fire. After the gas flame was cut off, the smoking *tops*S-
Insurance authorities allow the use of Arocior 1248 heaters in many locations with a minimum of protection. No fire walls are required to isolate the heaters.
Arocior 1248 has a low vapor pressure, in sys tems that employ a vented expansion tank, the loss due to evaporation is not measurable. If Arocior 1248 in the expansion tank would reach a temperature of
208*F., the vapor pressure of the fluid would be only 1 mm. of Hg.
SAFETff OF HANDLING
Arocior 1248 is an inert, unreactive liquid. If it is spilled on the skin, there are no noticeable ill effects. It is advisable, however, to wash the skin with soap and water after contact.
A skin bum resulting from accidental contact with hot Arocior 1248 should be treated in the tiorm.il manner for hot oil bums. Any liquid adhering to the burned area need not be removed immediately unless treatment of the bum demands it. if (lie burn must be cleaned, soap and water or repeated washings with a vegetable oil (olive oil) may be used.
The vapors emitted by Arocior 1248 heated to elevated temperatures are injuriom on prolonged ex posure and should not be breathed, ft is indicated th.it 2.0 mg. of Arocior 1248 per cubic meter of air is the maximum safe amount permissible in workrooms. In oomiractcia! heat transfer installations, it is presumed that Arocior 1248 will be used in a closed system free from leaks. Accordingly, there should be little or nu opportunity far workers to come in contact with Arocior 1248 vapors.

HEATER
T&e most significant (actor to remember when selecting or de- ' signing a heat exchanger for Arodor 1248 use is this:
Arodor 1248 trmsfers heat whale in Kquirl form, at the maximum recommended temperature of 600F. for continuom opefatkm, which is approximately 50* F. below the boiling point. Corac-
Arodor 1248 does not form vapor to accelerate convection ctoculatfcm. Ordinary fee-tube or water-tube heaters which depend solely upon oomtdion perform satisfactorily only at relatively low temperatures.
When temperatures of 5(W-0OO*F\ are rwpiirrd. a forced circu lation type heater is recommended. A satisfactory tvpe of Itenter deMgri would consist of a specified number of tubes in gnralM. pro|**rly onhail to provide a high velocity fluid flow of S to 10 fort per second. Tlioc should be spaced tv permit uniform heat absorption throughout (hot enttov length. A typical construction is shown in Figure 7.
In its fabrication, the heater should be ASME Code all-welded construction, conformmg to state and local ordinances. Tube joints, which in an ordinary sfieam heater would be the expanded type, must be sealwelded to prewat leakage. All connections larger than V should be flanged connections, since ordinary threaded pipe connection is not suited for Arodor 1248 service. Spiral-wound stainless steel and asbestos com bination is recommended for sealing joints and plugs.
Drain valves should be installed at all low points on the heater and the valves must conform with ASME requirements for "blow down' valves.
MCMS 079979
WATER PCB-SD0000064145
Since a beater operating on Aroclor 1248 is completely filled with liquid, costly liquid-level controls and condensate return gapes, fittings, traps, etc. are completely eliminated.
Heaters can be provided with any desired kind of firing. Portable and small size stationary units are frequently elec trically heated; larger units may be gas- or oil-fired. In installa tions where an ogien flame presents a fire hazard, to meet iasraance requirements the beater may be installed in a sepa rate building with pigling carrying the hot Aroclor 1248 to the
point of use. Properly constructed transmission pipes may ex tend for hundreds of feet.
HEATEB EFFICIENCY
Forced circulation heaters with integral economizers will show
an efficiency of from 75 to 80%. Heaters of the straight con nector type show efficiencies of 65 to 75%, depending upon (he discharge temperatures.
HEATER CAPACITIES
Heaters using Aroclor 1248 (gas- or oil-fired) are available m output cagncsties ranging from agrproaimateiy 250.000 Btu. per hour to large units rated over 10 million Btu. per hour. A heat flux density (or heat energy input) of ajiproaimatcly 5.000 Btu. pet hour gier square foot of tube surface ts regarded as satisfactory.
For lower output rate, electrically-heated units arcfavored. employing watt densities of 12 to 16 watts |irr square inch of element area.

THE PUMP
For most systems, cast-steel centrifugal pumps with water-
cooled stuffing box and bearings are to be preferred. However,
high temperature centrifugal pumps with mechanical seals are
now available which give excelfeet performance. In some in
stallations, immersion pumps have been used. Whatever type is selected, the pump capacity and pressure head must be
sufficient to circulate the volume of fluid at the rate the
particular installation demsiMls.
'
To avoid shaft trouble and leakage at the seals, it is important to provide adequate expansion joints and to support the piping in a manner to avoid stresses on the body of the
pump. Direct-connection pumps (kiven by 1.750 rpm. motors
are most commonly used. Each pump should be fitted with a
positive differential control to switch off the burner in case of
pump failure.
When a new system is first put into operation, a slight
leakage may be noticed at the pump. It is not advisable to
tighten the pump gland, however, until the system has heated
up close to the temperature of operation.
PIPING LAYOUT
The most important factors in the piping layout for Aroclor 1248 systems are fa) proper sizing for the required flow rate and (b) minimizing pressure drop. Because the sys tem will undergo temperature changes, adequate expansion joints and loops to relieve expansion and contraction stress are
Preferably, all pipe lines and connections should be of extra heavy or Schedule 80 welded construction meeting A.S.M.E. requirements. However. Schedule 40 welded pipe construction is often employed. Flanged joints should be used as sparingly as possible to minimize potential leak points.
All valves and controls should be cast steel construction with stainless steel seats. Pipe lines should be well insulated and those exposed to temperatures below 70'F. should be steam jacketed.
All high points in the piping system should be provided with vent valves; all low points should have drain corniest ions. Piping should be well anchored at frequent intervals, particu larly near expansion loops, to prevent vibrations.
Figure 9 shows a typical piping diagram that illustrates the important features of an Aroclor 1248 piping system. These may he varied to suit the installation.

THE EXPANSION TANK
The npnuion tank should be large enough to accom modate about 20% of the total volume of the entire system, including the fluid content of the heater, piping, and all heatusers. Tank should be sized to be %-fult when system is cooled to 70 F. and %-full when system la at maximum operating tem-
l>eraturc. Expansion tank should be fitted with a sight glass at
the "full* range and a float-operated low-level switch to shut off burner in case of accidental fluid loss in the system.
The expansion tank should be mounted on a platform high enough to support the liquid reservoir at least six feet higher than the highest point in the piping system.
THE FEED and DRAIN PUMP
To eliminate manual filling and draining of the heating
system, it is recommended that a small 2-to-S gpm. positive
displacement pump be installed at some convenient point to pump the Aroclor 1248 into or out of the system.
CONTROLS
Controls for heating systems using Aroclor 1248 should i>e installed both on the heater itself and on the heat-using units. A wide variety of thermo-operating controls are available and any reliable standard equipment is satisfactory.
Heater controls should be installed to regulate the firing mechanism in direct proportion to the required output. These controls should increase or decrease the heat in-put to main tain the Aroclor 1248 at the operating temperature required by the heat-demand of the user. Small units may be operated satisfactorily by relatively simple "on-off* Off "high-low" con trollers; larger units may operate more uniformly if equipped with modulating temperature controls.
User Controls should be installed to regulate the flow of the heat transfer fluid in direct proportion to the heat-con sumption of the heat-using equipment. In a multiple-user sys
tem. separate controls should be installed on each consuming unit, to assure the proper heat-delivery.
Safety Controls. In addition to activating continls. the heater must also be fitted with the proper safety cunlioh to
meet the A.S.M.E. requirements. Safety controls should
include:
I. A high kmpnalurr limit control operating .l (hr heater outlet to shut oil the burner m (Ik* etent of an ftcosi*e tcn^rieluir me

The low limit temperature control is essential I>cc"uisc
the viscosity of Aroclor 1248 is rather high at norma! room tem perature. To avoid localized overheating upon start-tip, it ts not advisable to apply full heat from the burner until all the fluid
in the system has attained a viscosity that allows good flow ami
unimpeded circulation. Cold start-ups require slow up-hcats
Burners should be equipped with automatic ignition controls lad flame failure controls. In wide-range firing opera tions, an over-fire draft control will increase the economy uf
operation. Induced draft fans are another factor which should be
considered as a means of avoiding the expense of high chimneys. Where they are needed through<*it the system, good
quality recording or indicating gauges should be installed
COOLING EQUIPMENT
Where fast reduction of temperature is required, suitable air- or water-cooling installations may be used. If the cooler is to be a water-type unit, it is suggested that stainless steel tubing be used for the coils to avoid corrosion on the water side If a cooler is installed in the system, low temgierature limit con trols should also be installed to avoid excessive cooling that might raise the viscosity to the point of impeding the circulation in the system.

FILTERING EQUIPMENT
Whm heatmg systems operated on Arodor 1248 are ran
continuously near the lecoauDondeil Mdrani temperature of
operation (flOO'F-X ft Is advisable to provide a titering device
that can be attached ft the drain line of the storage tank. In this way discrete pastadcs of dlst that may get mto the system can be filtered out peraodacaliy. Thte b an advisable maintenance step since it will eliminate the danger of dirt clogging the valve seats or lodging in pasts of the control mechanisms.
A small portable Stef such as those manufactured by HonanCraoe CosparaOoa (Lebanon, Ind) or Spottier Manu facturing Company (Muttdelate, 111.) is quite satisfactory.
CONNECTIONS aa4 GASKETS
To minimize the poreiMUty of Arodor leakage, welded rather than threaded screw connectloas should he used. All connections K-mch and over should be of the flanged type, fastened with alloy bolts; spiraJ-wound gaskets of corrugated stainless steel and asbestos should be nsed with flanged con nections. For three-inch lines, 300 pound flanges fitted with eight three-quarter inch holts should he employed. As a joint compound, a product like ~Q~ Seal* has been found useful. In all cases, steel connectors are recommended for all instruments and controls. TESTING THE ST8TBM
When a new system has been installed it is essential to test for leaks.
Testing with air should be avoided because of hazard of rupturing pipes or jackets. Testing with water is not recom mended because at is difficult to remove residual moisture from the system which should be kept dry.
Halogen Testing for leaks Is the recommended pro cedure. Introduce one pound of Freon F-12 or F-22 for each fifty cubic feet of volume of the heater and sys tem. Carefully iatroduce air not exceeding 10 psig. of pressure. With up to 10 psig- of air pressure, the con centration of Freon will be sufficient to give sensitive lest results.
Attach a halide torch to an acetylene tank and light it. Using the % inch hose as a probe, explore for leaks by passing the end of the hose along seams ami joints. If a leak is present, the escaping Freon will be drawn
" A pnxlaii i>4 Quh.klcy Co . Bnc.. 5fl W B 15th St.. New York. N. Y
into the acetylene flame turning it green. A large leak will produce a violet color.
CLEANING THE SYSTEM After testing for leaks and making any required repairs,
the system must then be cleaned.
A new system will contain dirt, mill scale and other foreign particles. Unless removed, these particles will be sus pended by the Arodor. They may then lodge in valves, con trols and mechanical equipment and cause faulty operation.
Purchasers of the heating equipment should request then aippliers to dean the equipment as thoroughly as possi ble. uabg brushes and wiping rags.
Where state or local codes require hydrostatic testing and cleaning with water, the procedure described by card No. I may be used. However, it is not easy to remove residual mois ture from the system. Since moisture is not desired in the system, testing and cleaning with water should be avoided whenever it is possible to do so.

GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS for Operation and Maintenance
The following recommendation* are primarily guides for the manner of using Arodosr 1248 in an operating system.
They are supplemental to the equipment manufacturer s own recommendations for operation and maintenance that relate to the beaten or the hrrt-rrhg hxtallatkms themselves. The recommendations for start-up. shut-down, precautions in event of power failure, and periodic check-ups on the fluid and equip
ment apply as generally accepted practice on all types and sizes
of systems. By foSowmg these recommendations, the troublefree service life of the beat transfer fluid will be increased.

PRECAUTIONS IN COLD WEATHER
When heat exchanger is exposed to ambient tempera
tures below 50 F.. it is recommended that unit not be shut down.
It is recommended that the burner be turned low and the fluid
circulated continuously at about 200*F. The unit will then be
"at ready' for immediate high temperature operation.
PRECAUTIONS IN CASE OF POWER FAILURE
In case of power failure, the burner circuit w intrmigXnl by the heater controls. When power comes on. the cuculating pomp should first be run for a few minutes to eliminate any vapor pockets that might have been formed by the fluid's being held static in the hot combustion chamber. If there is no knock ing In the piping system, full-fire stay be resumed immediately,
if the Buid temperature is above 180*F.

(Ksipimg or puidoiiiig equipment for a Stealing system to be operated with Aroclor as a medium to deliver heat into a process requires consideratiom of heat transfer characteristics of both the over and the heater. The actual heat which can he absorbed by a user, for example. depends upon the over-all heat transfer coefficient, heat transfer area, and a mean tem perature difference between Aroclor and tbe materia! being heated. Both overall beat trader coefficient and mean temperature difference are. in turn, affected by the flow rate f the Aroclor. This inter-relation of flow rate, heat, and temperature is usually solved by a trial and error procedure as covered in standard reference texts. The approach of Cranet(') may be used to minimise or eliminate trial and error.
The following tables and grajahs of physical properties and engi neering data are provided as an atd in layout and design calculations for systems to be operated with Aroclor 1248 as a heat transfer fluid in the liquid phase.
Table IV lists properties useful in heat balance-calculations by which the flow rate is related to the heat transferred and the tnngieiaturi- change of the Aroclor. This relation is also shown graphic-alls in f iguu- 10
The over all heat transfer coefficient for ilie beater or user may be estimated by tbe methods outlined in the texts of McAdamsf) or Keriif1) This is usually done by combining the individual film coefficient of the Aroclor with other coefficients and conductivities to yield the over-all coefficient. Table V contains physical properties of Aroclor as a function of temperature which are needed for calculating the Aroclor film coefficient. Tabic V| gives typical film coefficients for Aroclor flowing through a 0.81 inch i d. tube. These are listed as a function of temperature and flow rate in a tubular heat exchanger. Other tube sizes would, of course, require a correction for the diameter in tbe Reynolds and Nusselt group of the equation (horn McAdams) given at the top of Table VI Correlations for estimating film coefficients for various materials that might be processed by indirect heating may he found m the tests cited <*). (*) and elsewhere in the literature.
For sizing pipe lines and pumping requirements. Figure II shows pressure drop vs. flow rate and pipe size for Aroclor 1248 at temperatures over 30O*F. Above this femgieratiire Aroclor 124B flows freely like water.

On the basis of animal toxicity studies, THERMINOL FR may be considered only slightly toxic from the standpoint of acci dental massive skin exposure or accidental ingestion. Similarly, single exposures to high concentrations of vapors (when heated suffi ciently to volatilize) or high concentrations of decomposition products (if the fluid is accidentally discharged into the tire chamber) are not serious hazards because the irritating character of such concentrations preclude vol untary exposure.
Repeated or prolonged skin exposure should be avoided since THERMJNOL FR acta as a solvent for fata and oils of the skin. Re moval of these natural, protective barriers can lead to drying and chapping such as occurs with exposures to paint thinner*. More important, THERMINOL FR may be ab sorbed if it is allowed to remain on the unbroken skin. For these reasons, we recom mend that the skin be wsshed with soap and water if there is contact. A skin burn resulting from accidental contact with hot fluid should be treated in the normal manner for any thermal burn due to hot oils.
Because of its low vapor pressure, there is no significant vapor inhalation hazard when THERMINOL FR is at room temperature. For example, there is no vapor exposure prob lem while transferring the fluid from its ship ping container to the heat transfer system. On the other hand, the vapors emitted by THERMINOL FR heated to elevated tem peratures are injurious on prolonged exposure. It is indicated that the "threshold limit value" or atmospheric vapor concentration which cannot be safely exceeded (on a daily basis) is 0.5-1.0 milligrams of THERMINOL FR vapor per cubic meter of air in the workroom. In heat transfer installations, the fluid must be used in a closed system free from leaks with the expansion tank vented to the out doors. Accordingly, there should be little or no opportunity for workers to com# in con tact with vapors.

Please read this
old) "Askarel fluids contain Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs). Care should
be taken to prevent entry into the environment through spills, leakage,
use, vaporization, or disposal of liquid or containers. Avoid pro
longed breathinp of vapors or mists. Avoid contact with eyes or
prolonged contaict with skin. If skin contact occurs, remove by washing
with soap and water. Following eye contact, flush with water. In
case of spillage onto clothing, the clothing should bo removed as soon :al, sLin washed, and clothing laundered."
as practice
Each time a flu id is transferred there is chance some will be spilled. Therefore, accr mulate waste fluids in the same drums you will use for shipping to rec uce this hazard.

Use Proper Drum-fHandllng Equipment Askarel-filled <jirums should be moved only with a proper drum-grabbing device. A parrit beak type of drum-grabbing device will reduce the
possibility of damage to drums, A common drum handling device of this type is the Lift-O-Matic**, manufactured by Marvel Industries.
Pallets Not Rec bmmended
Askarel-filled drums should not be palletized. However, if proper drum-
a
handling equipment is not available and pallets must be used:
* Be sure pallets are properly constructed and undamaged to reduce tfhe chance of the drum falling from the pallet
when being moved.
Steel-band all drums to their pallets.
Drums should be banded together horizontally as well as vertically to the pallet.
So that four drums can be loaded across the width of a truck
to prevent shifting in transit, multiple (2 or 4) drum
pallets should be no more than 46 inches wide.

PRESENTATION TO FIELD SALES PERSONAL AND CONFIDENTIAL
1. Introduction As moot of you are aware, there have been several newopaper and magazine articles published in the U. S. In 1969 indi cating that jjolychlorinated Jjlphenyls (PCDs) have been discovered in some marine, aquatic and wildlife environ ments . The quantities detected are said to be in the ports per million or parts per billion category.
It is claimed that the PCBs found strongly resemble chlor
inated biphenyls containing
and 6(Jfi chlorine by weight.
As you know, Monsanto sells such products under the trade names of Aroclor 1234 and 1260.
2, Letter to Monsanto's Aroclor Customers As a result of this publicity and because Monsanto's name has been mentioned In at leust one of the articles, it was felt that Monsanto as a responsible member of the buc.lncM; community hud a duty to alert its Aroclor customers to a potential problem of environmental contamination. In no alerting our customers, let me emphur.ize that thlu iiocr. NOT mean that wc are agreeing v/J th the contents of any
MOWS 058519
WATER PCB-SD0000064172
2. _ -
published articles on PCBs, nor are we necessarily disagreeing with the articles. It does not mean that we accept that Aroclor 1254 and 1260 have caused any environmental problems. We are merely fulfilling what we consider to be our moral and our legal responsibility to our customers. When you consider the present public concern with pollution and the environment (witness Newsweek'a recent article headlined "The Ravaged Environment"), I think you would agree that it would be foolish and imprudent to ignore the PCB articles. But let me repeat that notification to our customers does nat-imply guilt on the part of Monsanto.
Accordingly, a letter has been cleared by our Legal Department for mailing to each one of our dlrect Monsanto customers. This letter goes to Plasticiser customers only. A very similar letter will be mailed by the Functional Fluid/; Croup to thoir customers. The letters will be mailed from St. Louis; about the end n" February, it will be addressed to:
. Office of the President XY/i Company Account:: HocclvuMo Address HONS 058520
WATER_PCB-SD0000064173
The Plasticizer letter will be signed by W. E. Schalk. A copy of this letter, together with a cover letter, will be mailed to the head office of each of our Aroclor dis tributors. The cover letter will indicate the action Monsanto is taking with regard to its direct Aroclor customers. We will recommend that our distributors mail a similar letter promptly to each of their Aroclor customer;;. Copies of our letter will be made available
I.
to our distributors in quantities sufficient to meet their necd3. It is not our responsibility to alert our distributors' customers. To explain the action to our
<
distributors we have visited the head offices of Central Solvents and American Mineral Spirits.
Let me summarize what Monsanto's letter says: 1) Its primary function Is to alert cuatomero to a
potential environmental pollution problem. Con fidentially, our Legal Department believes thl;; will minimize and, hopefully, eliminate claim:: made against us ior environmental pollution damage.
2) it does not imply quilt by Monsanto. At thin thin,
HONS 058521

I)
we are taking a neutral stand on the controversy. There are real problems of analytical identification of PCBs, how accurate the levels observed are, how PCBs affect marine, aquatic and wildlife environments over the long-term. We have active programs in all these areas to better define the problem but a lot of work needs to*be done before definite scientific conclusions can be drawn. 3) It points out that not all Aroclors are PCBs. This is on important distinction. Don't call the PCD pro blem the Aroclor problem. We sell Aroclors such as 5060, 5442 and 5460 which are NOT PCBs. They, there fore, should not be regarded as potential environmental contaminants. 4) Furthermore, it says that not all PCBs appear to be potential contaminants. Aroclors 1221, 1232. 1242 and 1240 have NOT been found in the environment. Neither have Aroclor:: 1262 and 1260. We can only theorize mi to why this should be. At tb):i ulugr, we prefer not to Indulge in theories. The oallent

Standards established for all states of the Union,1 we are pointing out that care will be needed in preventing environmental contamination from other raw materials and products not Just Aroclor 12p4 and 1260.

How To Keep Your Thermlnol FK System Leak-Free
COPY:
Your Thermlnol FR heat transfer system 1 a a closed system. Thus fluid leakage Is easily controlled. Hero are some suggestions that will help you control leaks and dis pose of any fluid taken out of your system.
Check These Sources For Leakage
Centrally, there are four sources of leaks In a system:
Fittings. Weld all connections. Flange fittings
where accessibility is desired.
Pump Seals. Canned pumps are the best protection
against leakage. If mechanical seals art
used, enclose them or provide a drip pan
with a drain to a collection sump.
User Seals. Direct all drains to a collection sump.
Install drip pans at rotary Joints.
Expansion
Tank Vent. Direct vent to eithor a cold seal tank,
catch pot or drum to contain vapor condensation
and light ends.
When your system is under design or construction, specify check
valves at selected points. This will minimize fluid discharge In
the rare case of a rupture at the using equipment or J"
heator coll.

How To Dispose Of Thormir.ol ."R
If leakage does occur, collect the fluid and place It in durms. Return material for disposal to:
Monsanto
W. 0. Krummrich Plant Saget, Illinois Attns Supervisor, Department 2^6 Please advise your Monsanto fluid spoolallat that material is being returned for disposal so the proper papers can be prepared. The charge Tor this disposal is $.03/lb. (not including drums and freight costs).
Follow the same procedure for change-out of your fluid charge. Or, you may wish to reclaim this fluid under our regular policy.
Your investment in a heating system using Thcrminol FR fire-resistant fluid shows you care about safety; safety for personnel and equipment. The above suggestions are made to help you keep your system leak-free and pro tect this valuable investment.
If you have any questions about fluid leakage, disposal
or reclamation, please contact your Monsanto fluid

Three new sources of PCB news appeared during the month. The American Chemical Society syndicated an article, based on Carl G. Gustafson's article in Environmental Science and Technology. The ACS feature appeared mainly in East Coast and New England weeklies.
The College Press Service distributed a PCB story to campus newspapers which rounded up previously published material. So far, it has appeared in the Washington University and SIU student dailies. A third article, quoting oceanographers meeting in Rome, criticized
Monsanto for refusing to release production figures on
PCB.

As a result of an exchange of visits between Nashua and Monsanto, two candidates appear promising as Aroclor 1242 replacements:
XS-276 (HB-4o/Aroclor 5442) and XS-310 (MIBP/ chlorinated paraffin). XS-276 has received a partial plant trial and a drum of XS-310 has been ordered for more testing. Other coded samples are alao under
test at Nashua.

completed and the results reported for correlation with engineering data. A second sampling of the pond associated with the Biviro-Chem incinerator demonstrated that the PCB disposal tests did not contaminate the site {<10 ppb),
Aroclor 5442 Composition
GC/Mass analysis of a composite sample of materials
extracted by water from eleven current Aroclor 5442 lots has been completed. No.highly toxic components,
furans, dioxins, etc., were identified which could
account for the reported higher toxicity of Aroclor
5442 to Daphnia over chlorinated biphenyls. Chlori nated biphenyls and terphenyls were identified as the major constituents of the composite. Previous work had shown that an impurity in Aroclor 5442 gave a lowresolution mass spectrum similar to the spectrum of tetrachlorodlbenzofuran. It was later found that tetrachloromethylblphenyl has a similar mass spectrum.
To determine which of these compounds is present, a high resolution mass spectrum was obtained at the Physi cal Science Center on a concentrate containing the impurity. This spectrum indicated the empirical for
mula of the impurity to be 0^0^1202014, The empirical formulae of tetrachlorodlbenzofuran and tetrachloro methylblphenyl are C12H3OCI4 and C13HRCI4, respectively. No reasonable structure haB been found for the indica
ted empirical formula. Another sample has been con centrated and is scheduled for high resolution mass
spectrometry to verify the empirical formula of the
impurity.
Biodegradation Testing
The expansion of the semi-continuous activated sludge (SCAS) testing facilities from 16 to 26 units was completed. This will allow us to study 24 products, including 10 new ones. Additionally, early in January
a fractional replicate of a factorial experiment will be Initiated, This preliminary experimental design will be used to determine the effect that seven variables have on the observed SCAS disappearance rates of three model compounds. The model compounds to be studied during the eight week duration of the test are bi phenyl (degradable),`2,4'-dichloroblphenyl (intermediate degradable), and 2,2', 4,4', 6,6'-hexachlorobiphenyl
(non-degradable). HONS 099636
WATER PCB-SD0000064191
-5-
A staggered schedule for all SCAS units has also been laid out which will allow one-third of the 24 units devoted to degradation to be sampled and analyzed
(20 data points) during each month of operation. The compounds to be studied during January include TCB, MIPB, HB-40, 2,21-dichlorodiphenyl ether and Aroclor
1221 as well as the three units devoted to the statisti cal experiment. The other compounds being fed (but
not sampled and analyzed) to the remaining units are MCS 1043, MCS 1016, Aroclor 1242, Aroclor 1254,
Arobromoclor 1232, ONCB, PNCB, p-chloroaniline, nitrated orthene. S-711M, hexabromobiphenyl, Aroclor 5432, Aroclor 5442, Aroclor 5460, and Arobrom 5^65.
Analysis and sampling of these units will begin in February and March. In the meantime, the effects that these materials have on the normal characteristics
(pH, growth rate, and settling time) of the activated sludge will be monitored on a daily basis.
The two remaining units are being used to maintain special cultures, a Cg biphenyl culture from MCL, and a biphenyl culture grown in our laboratories. Very rapid growth on biphenyl' as the sole oarbon
source has been observed with the MCL-C2 culture.
River Die-Away
,
River die-away tests with Aroclor 1242, Aroclor 1254, MCS 1016, MCS 1043, Arobromoclor 1232 and TCB at the 100 ppb level were discontinued after several weeks. The highly scattered data obtained Indicated that the loo ppb level wa3 too low to achieve meaningful dis appearance rates due to procedural problems and/or losses by non-degradation routes (volatilization, ad sorption, etc.). Further experimentation Is planned during the first quarter.
HB-40 and MIPB Biodegradation
A brief sampling period of the HB-40 and MIPB semicontinuous activated sludge (SCAS) units was completed 11/28/70. UV analysis of the hexane extracts gave mean disappearance rates of 58#/oyole for MIPB and
44#/cycle for HB-40 based on the total material present. A 3X cycle gave disappearance rates of 66# and 55# respectively while a 5X cycle gave 77# and 62#
respectively, SCAS work with .these materials will be concluded with an extended sampling period In January.
MOMS 09963?
WATER PCB-SD0000064192
River die-away tests on HB-40 and MIPB are nearing
completion. After a three week exposure at the 1 ppm level to the normal level of micro-organisms in Meramec
river water the MIPB concentration has decreased by a
total of 85$ of which 54$ can be attributed to microbial degradation. Similarly for HB-40, the total concen tration has decreased by 66$ of which 57$ can be
attributed to microbial degradation.
Aroclor 1221
Feeding of the Aroclor 1221 SCAS unit continues but
with only limited sampling of the unit. No quantita
tive data.is available yet but qualitatively there
appears to be a rapid disappearance of the lower
homologs with a build-up of the higher ones. This
unit is scheduled to be sampled for an extended period
in January.
Aroclor 5432 Liquid-Liquid Chromatographic Analysis
The liquid-liquid chromatography method for the analysis
of SCAS samples containing Aroclor 5432 has been
optimized. The liquid-liquid system consists of a
3 ft, column packed with Zysan Permaphaze as the
stationary phase and water/methanol (75$/25$> v/v)
as the mobile phase. The ultraviolet detector Res
ponse is linear between 0 and
of Aroclor 5432,
absolute, with a lower detection limit of about l>*g
absolute. Analysis time is 40 minutes. Optimization
of the system to other halogenated terphenyla will be
made.
Carbon Adsorption Studies
The pilot unit continues to operate with minimum diffi
culties at an average flow rate of 6 gpm/ft^. Effluent quality, at the present flow rate, is <10 ppb Aroclor for average influent concentrations in the range
100-2000 ppb and for occasionally high concentrations of up to 11,000 ppb. There has been no indication of a breakthrough. Present plans are to operate the unit until 12/30 at the present flow. If there is no indication of a breakthrough at that time, all data will be compiled for an evaluation and recommendation by a Pittsburgh carbon consultant.
Filtration Studies
HONS 099638
The study conducte*d to remove the Aroclor contain ing solids from the effluent of the new neutralization
pit by filtration through a sand bed has been completed. At flows greater 200 cc/min the filter tended to blind with the fine solids. The solids could not be success-

Sollds-Aroclor Removal by Flocculation and Flotation
The clarifier unit from Biodize has been received. Plans are now being made for some necessary alterations on the unit. The complete installation is scheduled to be com
pleted by 1/29/70.
Denver Equipment has completed their study on the removal
of solids by flocculation and flotation. The most satisfactory flocculation results from these studies were obtained by conditioning with (200 ppm) CAO, and (10 ppb) Alp (SOij)3 to preflocculate the solids and then intensi fying theJfioc with (4 ppm) Separan MGL. Initial solids
concentrations in the range (100-1000 ppm) were reduced to 19 ppm in a 120 min. settling time.
Flotation of the same material using 56 ppm of Armac T
and 30 ppm of Aerofroth 65 produced a final effluent of
34.5 ppm of solids. Solids removal is more dramatic by
flocculation, however, the froth may be more effective
in removing the organics.
Betz is scheduled to complete their evaluation and recom

At the interceptor, the pcb content was 22.6 parts per billion. Simultaneous sampling at the main effluent plant gave 54.0 parts per billion.
Difference of 31.4 parts per billion is arising from spillages from internal heat transfer fluid systems, and from drum leakages from Aroclor stored on drum flats. Evaluation is now in progress to change all in ternal Aroclor heat transfer fluid systems to Santotherm 66, The two areas involved are Santolube 900 and 4-NDPA. The expansion project for 4-NDPA has been requested to use a Santotherm 66 system.
Incineration
Contact has been made with Dr. J. B. Lewis, Chemical Engineering Division, A.E. R.E., Harwell, and Mr. Hlgginson who is in Division Engineering Design and Development, Refuse Disposal Branch of the Public Engineering Dept., Greater London Council.
Dr. Lewis is considering offering an incineration service to Industry for the disposal of highly toxic wastes. Vodden and Macdonald are scheduled to meet with Dr. Lewis in the near future, Mr. A. E. Hlgginson is very much in faVor of industrial waste disposal services carrying highly toxic wastes for incineration through speoial systems provided by the Greater London Council. This appears to be a logi cal step forward and should be of significant advantage to our customer disposal problems. We intend to follow up with Mr. Hlgginson following our discussions with Dr. Lewis.

Esturlal Dilution The Monsanto effluent discharge of approximately 1.4 million gallons per day is further diluted in the Severn Estuary by the several rivers discharging into this area. Average daily flow for these rivers have been obtained and are as follows!

The average dally flow corresponds to 3,670 million gallons per day.
The lowest dry weather flow for all these discharges has been established at 44$ million gallons per day.
These volumes should be looked at in relation to the current discharges from the Newport location.
Used Drum Disposal
Blagden's drum reconditioning plant at Barking, Essex is acceptable for reconditioning used Aroclor drums aB a customer service, but is not approved for the
incineration and disposal of the washings, and this problem is being further investigated.

In the normal installation a single cylinder would be released to extinguish the fire, with a second unit available as standby. The second cylinder could actually be used for extended dis- ' charge to maintain maximum oonoentratlons, slnoe some 003 will obviously be lost by leakage from the oombustlon ohamber. This arrangement could prevent re-ignition while the heater Is cooling.
The Baloiyf Fire Suppression System is a possible alternative to a GOg arrangement, and can be used in dosed spaoes with personnel in the area. Par less concentration Is required than with the CO| system, but the Halon^f system Is more costly to reoharge, faollitlem to do so art not as readily available, and the latter system im a "fire suppression" arrangement as opposed to a "fire extinguishing" system.

With flre-proteotion and ozldatIon-rest stance procedure* well In mind, let u* turn to the natter of preparing the Thermlnol PR system t^aeoepV Therminoi 66.
The aoat expedient procedure would be to simply drain and change the system to Thernlnoi 66f frlowever, expedience is not
always the best alternative, and certainly not in this oase.
Debris^ aoouaulated over the years in the system^dould cause
eedous problems, especially to mtohanioal seals, rotary Joints,
eto,
heat .transfer systems should be dmslme* end cleaned from time
to time as a part of normal preventive maintenance. Slnoe a
fluid change is necessary at this time, it would seoa to use the downtime to^ol^a^Tjp the system ^S^startWfresh
Vs woold strongly advise you Qgt to simply drain and change, but to take this opportunity to olean your system. Many potential problems will be preempted by so doing.
Tht rthsr rssson for cleaning your system at this time is that

Dear Sirs:
EPA Proposed Rule: Polychlorinated Biphenyls (?C3's) Manufacturing, Distribution In Commerce and Use 3ans.
On June 7, 1978, the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") published a proposed rule in 4 3 Federal Register oeg-ir.nir.g on page 24,802 covering Manufacturing, Processing, Distribution in Commerce, and Use Bans of Polychlorinated Biphenyls (? C 3'o 9. We attach a copy for your information.
We believe that your company may have used Therminol' PR series heat transfer oils prior to their replacement by non-PCS f1.1 is. If adopted, the proposed rule, on its effective date, would tar. the operation of heat transfer systems containing resiiual PC3 concentrations above 50 part3 per million.
Monsanto is submitting to the EPA the attached comments whicr. suggest and/request alternatives to the proposed rule and a specific authorization for the continued operation of heat transfer systems containing residual PC3 concentrations.
Since there is very limited reference to PCS's in heat transfer systems in the proposed rule, we wished to ensure that you were aware of its potential impact on your operations.
In the event that you converted systems from Therminol PR heat transfer fluids to our non-PCB fluids, Thermi'nols 55 or 66,
continued .

Dear Mr. Huiehtrt

Olson was forwarded to oe for response since 2 have been
given the responsibility for studying the PCS environmental*-.
problem.
i
We do not have speciflo research data on the persistence . ' of Pydraul products in the environment but w have studied the PCB'e that are principal components in Pydrmuls. Our studies to date have confirmed our suspicion that the higher chlorinated biphenyls are more persistent than those containing lea* chlorine. Because of this persistence we strongly recommend that liquids containing PC be kept away from water systems, e.g. sewers* creeks, rivers, lakes, etc.
Pydrmuls which are no longer usable should be destroyed by incineration at tes^eratures exceeding 800C. Stack gases from the incineration must be scrubbed and neutralised to prevent HGl from escaping to the atmosphere. If indn ration facilities are not available, you may wish to send the scrap liquid to Monsanto Company, W. 0. Kruamrich Plant, sauget, Illinois, Attention Supervisor Department 246. Ito# cost of incineration has been tentatively set at 3 cents per pound of material received and does not include freight and container costs.

MONSANTO'S PCB PROGRAM W. B. PAPAGEORGE
Presented at ANSI Committee C-107 Meeting - September 14, 1971
I appreciate the opportunity to share Monsanto's PC? experience with you and I hope the Information I have can help'this committee plan end achieve its objectives.
We at Monsanto first heard of PCB'a as potential environmental contaminants In early. 1967 when we received copies of a talk given*ln 3weden by professors Wldmark and Jensen of the University of Stockholm. In their paper they described how they were able to identify a material which had been interfering with pesticide analyses as being polychlorinated biphenyls.
<
Our la! boratories began work on the development of analytical methodology to confirm that PCB'b Indeed were being round In the environment. During 1968' and 1969 as methodology improved the evidence continued to indicate that the higher chlorinated biphenyls were being identified in the tissues of fish and birds.
During this period Monsanto mounted an extensive program aimed at acquiring more knowledge about PCB's and their effect on the environment. We perfected our analytical methods, we started" S animal toxicity studies, began biodegradation work and evaluated alternative materials for thoee applications we felt were con tributing substantially to contamination.
HONS 041633
WATER PCB-SD0000064231

Our animal toxicity work was Bimilar to the type we would have
undertaken if we had wished to. have PDA approval for food uBe.
Chronic toxicity and reproduction studies were made on leghorn
chickens. Two year chronic feeding studies were started on
rats and dogs. Three generation reproduction studies were made
on rats,
*
The PCB's used in the tests were Monsanto's Aroclor 1242, Aroclor
1254. and Aroclor 1260. These were selected since .they represented
5,,
the more commonly used PCB mixtures. The animals were fed con
centrations of 1 ppm, 10 ppm and 100 ppm in.their normal diets,
,
The results to date Indicate that at the levels used the rats
C -J
and doge showed no effects with Aroclor' 1242. At 100 ppm both
the rate and dogs exhibited decreased weight gains and enlarged '
livers. The chickens were affected by Aroclor 1242 at the
10 ppm level. The hatchabillty of the eggs was significantly
reduced.
'
To summarize what I've said about Monsanto's sponsored animal
toxicity work the- highly chlorinated polychlorinated biphenyls
at 100 ppm In the animal diet doers have some errect on mammals.
The lower chlorinated polychlorinated biphenyls at 10 ppm in the *'
diet
some effect on leghorn chickens, and I say speciflcallj-
leghom chickens because there is mounting evidence that there X
are definite species variations as determined by the Pautuxet
Laboratories here in Maryland with four types of wild birds.
There is a species variation noted which frustrates many scientists
HONS 041634
WATER PCB-SD0000064232

I was asked what we know about the effect on marine life, Monsanto did sponsor static fish toxicity work and we were completely
frustrated because these PCB's have the tendency to plate out
on surfaces. Our information was garbled because in the static testing we were really exposing the fish to PCB environments a
lot less than we thought we were. The data was so distorted it was meaningless. In the meantime, we found that there are
many competent laboratories looking at fish and the effects on fish that we decided that maybe this is an area that is best
left to the experts. . -
;
,r
We have been in touch with laboratories such as the. Water Quality
Laboratory of Duluth, Minnesota. They have conducted studies
which indicate there in some effect on some species. There has
been some work done in the Columbia, Missouri Bureau of interior
Fish-Pesticide Laboratory which indicates, for example, magnifi
cation about 50,000 times. By that I mean that the amount of
PCB detected in the fish tissues was 50,000 times that present
in the water environment in which this fish was exposed,
.
There have been reports of fish kills and some very drastic
effects attributed to PCB'a. I've tried to get evidenoe that these .things have occurred. I have not been able to confirm
<
any reported incident.
' ,/
We have talked with scientists at the Qulf-Breeze, Florida Commercial Fisheries Laboratory, They have conducted studies
HONS 041635
WATER_PCB-SD0000064233

with crab and shrimp. This is the laboratory that did detect
a build-up In crab and also the lethal effect on Juvenile shrimp.
Very, very low concentrations - 5 ppb in the water - do destroy
Juvenile shrimp.
-
There is a growing thought among many of the.responsible scientists that this environmental problem is most complex and it 1b not
really any one insult that is the demise of any particular species, but it could be the cumulative effect of all insults a creature
:.
is exposed to and usually the last Insult is the one that gets
blamed.. Dr. Tom Duke of Gulf-Breeze ia a proponent of this tf
theory and he is conducting studies to substantiate, this. It
could<be the lack or presence of oxygen, the lack or presence
of proper nutrients in the environment, the lack or presence
of the proper temperature conditions, the exposure to a DDT
or a cadmium or a mercury or an arsenic, and along comes a PCB
and the fish dies. PCB might get blamed. This is the kind of
thing-that does happen in the environment.
There Is a growing concern that we should be considering to a greater degree chronic effects of all these materials rather than relying on the old acute studies that used to serve as a screening*' for many, many chemicals. I have sketchy data on marine life. We know that It does build up in the marine environment and ' there is, of course, the published evidence that it does affect the fish eating birds.
HONS 041636
WATER_PCB-SD0000064234
{
There Is some indication in the Duluth studies that reproduction and survival of the frye is affected. There seems to be minimal affect on adult fish.
It was suggested earlier that I might want to review the manufac
ture of PCB's, the many applications in which it was used and
what our present program is. To the best of' my information, it
was 1929 that these materials were introduced as very attractive
fluids for use in transformers, and there are many In this audience
J.
that are more familiar with this development that I am. PCB's
were used in transformers as an insulating cooling .fluid because
tr
they are more resistant to breakdown, less apt to explode and
burst-into flames and cause property damage and human Injury.
: Through the years, additional uses were found for these materials because of these properties that I mentioned earlier. They
gradually at first, and of course with increasing amounts,
ended up in applications that Monsanto through its in-house usage
1 referred to as plasticizer usages. That is not a very good description, but 4.t fit our needs for many years, and you'll find
us using that expression. These are uses such as in paint formu
lations, the specialty Ink uses, the plasticizer in sealants,
*'
adhesives, and paper coatings or all sorts.
'y There was a use that was a real thorn in our side and you'll see
at least some of the earlier articles on PCB.'s referring to
pesticide use. There were some studies conducted by the Department of Agriculture in which PCB's were used to extend the effect of
! f

Ufa of pesticides such as lindane, It was never intended for broadcasting as we.visualize DDT was on food crops, cotton crops, or orchards. The only widespread use that I could find was a limited trial to help prevent or curtail the dutch elm disease, and that proved to be a failure. The other uses were extremely small in private formulations that were used to spray or coat hard surfaces - shelving, corners or floors and all for the typical crawling type insects such as the roach and sllverflsh. In fact it was so small that .Monsanto did not market directly to pesticide formulators) we gave this business to Our distri-
, <* butors. On the other hand, this use did cause considerable emotion and was used by some to explain the-presence of FCB's in remote areas. We wrote to the Department of Agriculture suggesting that during 1970 when pesticides were being re registered that PCB's not be approved. .Finally in October they did put out a notice to that effect.
We have had questions raised, "is it in my shower curtains at home?.' Is it in the draperies? In the Carpeting?" The answers to those is "not very likely". And 1 use those words because we really don't know. If it was put into these applications. It was so small we, Monsanto, were not aware of it. It was not used in automobile tires] it was not used in brake linings,
Other major uses Include the use in hydraulic fluids which are fire resistant. Monsanto marketed these fluids under its trademark Pydraul, I am sure some of you remember the Livonia,
HONS 041638
WATER PCB-SD0000064236

Michigan fire? This was a disastrous fire in termB of property damage and was really a high mark in terms of convincing industry that there was a need for fire resistant hydraulic fluids. But the application is not the type that is maintained to a degree where everything is leakproof. Many of these connections leak, hoses burst, and the tendency is to keep producing by adding more fluid. So it is conceivable that many of these hydraulic fluids ended up in the sewer. I do not intend to criticize the customers of our products, From the knowledge that we had at. that time of the material the practice was considered acceptable,
,*
Another fairly widespread application of PCB's is the use of these iflulds as a heat transfer media to achieve high temperatures, have a fire resistant transfer fluid, and avoid the Installation of high pressure equipment. These materials were ideally suited for this application. We thought at one time that these were adaptable to close control and proper maintenance where we could logically call them closed systems. Some recent evidence indi cated `that we were wrong and I'll get into that when I discuss
, our present applications.
One. application that was a fairly significant one and one that ' In our thinking is associated with coatings is the use in car bonless reproduction paper.Vith the emphasis on recycling paper.-' wastes and with the persistence of PCB's there Is a problem developing in that PCB's are being found in many paper products and many of these paper products end up in food packaging,
MONS 041639
WATER PCB-SD0000064237
Initially the evidence we were getting seemed to point to the higher chlorinated materials as environmental pollutants. As soon bb we were aware of this, we. sent a letter to all of our customers telling them that what little we knew indicated that these materials could be an environmental problem, and care should be exercised in handling. When the results came in on our chicken toxicity studies they Indicated that the lower chlorinated materials might be a problem regarding birds. We decided, as a company, that we better place some restrictions on these materials because there were to us some uses that deserved to be kept in spite of the problems that Wfe saw facing
us,
t
*
We decided that we've got to get out of those applications where
we felt there was no earthly chance or it was beyond our ability
to control the introduction into the environment, so we got
out of all the so-called plasticizer applications. August 30,
1970 was the targeted effective date.
We then went into-a very active program of reformulating the
hydraulic fluids. There!again, it required a lot of testing.
We had to run these new materials through the Underwriters
Laboratories for approval on fire resistance. They had to be
compatible with the machinery then in use. This is not easll'y X
done, but it was done.
'
We decided that we could and must continue to supply the trans former manufacturer, the capacitor manufacturer, and at that
HONS 041640
WATER PCB-SD0000064238
-9-
time closed heat transfer systems based primarily on our concept that fire resistance was important in heat transfer.
To pick up the point that was raised earlier about foreign im ports, we are to the best of our ability trying to monitor imports. To this day, we have no Information that any.have arrived in this country. On the other hand, we are getting some reports that some of our former customers have made inquiries of the foreign producers. I am also told by some Canadian provincial
5_
agency people that thpy had heard and were going to further investigate that PCB's were entering Canada.and from there
,r
moved .into the United States. I have talked to representatives of the Japanese producer, the Kanegafuchi Company., and I am led to believe that they are most reluctant to enter this business. On the other hand, the Japanese producers are the producers that are being accused of entering the U.S, market. X have talked to representatives of the French companies. They assure me that they don't want any part of this business.
In May, 1970 Congressman William Fits Ryan Introduced a proposed
bill which would In essence place into law the very things that
Monsanto had proposed doing on a voluntary basis. The bill
provided that PCB's be banned except for those situations where
the Secretary of HEW would give special permission or license.
We went through the latter part of '70 and early part of this year feeling, however, that we were still walking on thin ice.
HONS 0416^1
WATER PCB-SD0000064239
t
But we thought that we had made some tremendous strides in the right direction to preserve those usea which we thought were essential while eliminating those uses which were grossly con taminating the environment. This summer our hopes of control in the heat transfer business vanished when we found that a user of PCB did not appreciate the problem, did not 'maintain his equipment and created the recent chicken, egg, fishmeal problem.
!_
Because of this incident. Congressman Ryan withdrew the first ' bill that was submitted .and has now placed before the same com mittee a bill which totally bans PCB and does not provide for any use whatever. And there are, of course, penalties for the marketing, manufacture, or use of PCB in this country. A very drastic measure which does cause or can cause a lot of concern among.those of us who feel that PCB has a place in our society under proper conditions,
As a result of this incident, we were forced to ro-evnluat* our position. We decided that,although heat transfer systems could be closed units, we are still at the mercy of the attitude of the operator of the equipment and we continuously faced the. situation where even a pinhole leak can oreate tremendous pro blems before it can be discovered. So we have taken, again, ' an arbitrary position and informed all of our customers in the food (whether it's animal or human food)j packaging business, and the pharmaceutical business, that we will no longer supply them heat transfer fluids which contain PCB's.
HONS 041642
WATER PCB-SD0000064240
11
In addition, we will no longer market to any new heat transfer
applications. Our efforts will be concentrated on reducing
those that We market today. This business should decrease
as time goes on.
-
To get back to legislation ... as many or you probably know, there is before Senator Phillip Hart's committee a bill referred to as the Toxic Substances Act of 1971. The purpose of this bill 1b to prevent the introduction into our society of hazardous materials. It also provides"for the review of materials now in our society and the curtailment of the use of the more hazardous
t* ones,, Initial hearings were held in August, to which a select few individuals were invited to testify. PCB waa brought out a8 an example of a material Introduced into society and thought at one time to be most valuable, but 1b now considered a serious threat to all of us.
The meetings will be resumed in October; I do not know the exact date as yet, and I'm led to believe that this would be the opportunity for industry to speak up in its behalf. .1 am assuming that since PCB's were brought up as an example of the type of substance this bill is supposed to prevent that Monsanto as sole producer in this country will be either Invited or we may choose to ask to be invited (we don't know at this point Just what is the proper approach here) to speak on the merits of retaining PCB's in transformers, capacitors and fire resistant heat transfer systems, non-food applications.

I mention this hill because It is our opinion, and we could be
wrong, that rather than act on Congressman Ryan's bill, which
is specific toward PCB's, we suspect that the Toxic Substances
Act will have in it provisions which will refer to such materials
as PCB's,
We feel we have good technical data to Justify our staying in the business for limited applications. But we cannot overlook the emotions that have set in. And believe me there are many and they are deep. It is difficult to combat emotions, as you know, _and the references in the popular press to hazardous poisons and birth defects, which have not been substantiated, are most difficult to overcome. Although we talk about per sistant versions of PCB and degradable versions of PCB I sus pect, and this is a personal opinion, that there would be many who Jut st discount* this kind of Information. This la a very real problem; in my opinion it is a difficult problem.
As a little* more background let me describe what I understood from a meeting we, held last week with representatives of the Food and Drug Administration. It is my personal opinion that the Food and Drug people are as conscientious as can be in trying to cope with the PCB problem. They are objective people trying to work with a minimum of data, I suspect they are as frustrated as any group of people can be as to what is the right way to go. There are tremendous pressures on the Food and Drug people today as well as the Department of Agriculture brought about by critics.

These agencies are trying to objectively cope with the problem
and at the same time trying to somehow live with these pressures
that are being applied.
.
The PDA people really don't at this point in time have much infor
mation that will lead them to a regulation as to how much PCB
should be tolerated in food. They have established some guide
lines based on what little Information they have from their
own laboratories and the information that Monsanto has shared
' :_
'
with them. The PDA will permit fish at 5 ppm on the market-
place;- milk at .2 ppm or less; eggs .5 ppm; -pountry- (they have
a double standard) 5 ppm in the fatty tissue and 5. ppm in the
muscld tissue,
'
Another problem that is disturbing to the FDA> is the recycle
paper problem. The cereal boxes, the cracker boxes, all of r
these boxes that are made from what is known as chipboard,
t
are made from recycle paper. Fairly high levels of PCB'8 are
being.found in this recycle board. It probably comes from about
three or four different sources. It may come from some ink
application in the past, some adhesive application, some coating
application, as well as the carbonless reproduction paper appli
cation. There have been some pilot studies made by the American
Paper Institute to isolate the carbonless reproduction paper'
from' the recycle batch. They still found PCB'a in that batch.
They are probably looking at maybe the second or third genera
tion of recycle. And with the emphasis on recycle, I cannot
see any way out of this dllema except that there will be more
and more PCB1s in these cartons.

A thought we must all keep In mind, too, Is that we've got to
live with the PCB's we Introduced into the environment for the
past 40 years. They have not disappeared overnight} they will
not disappear overnight*. We do not have any tests that tell
ub how long it will take. We can only made an educated guess
and we might Bay they will be out there for another'generation,
25 to 30 years yet, Hopefully, it will be a decreasing amount
as time goes on.
1.
Monsanto haa conducted,biodegradation tests on its products.
We have three programs that are now active. One program we are
conducting in our laboratories in Ruabon, Wales in- which we
are making what 1 would refer to as scientifically basic studies
In terms of which isomers are most degradable and with what
type of microbe.
ThisIs a little bit on the impractical side
at this point in time.We have as a consultant, Professor Charles
Evans of Bangor University in South Wales, who is a noted authority
worldwide in this kind of activity. He has isolated at least
three microbes that seem to thrive on polychlorinated biphenyls.
These microbea he developed from soil that he obtained from his
garden. What this tells us is that there are microbes out there t.
in the environment that will eventually destroy these materials.
In the St. Louis area, we have two types of testa going. One ^ is the use of river water with its normal biota in it, in which we introduced these polychlorinated biphenyls and look for the disappearance rate. It is a very quick and rather unsophisticated type of study. The other type of'test is the one that simulates
HONS 041646
i
WATER PCB-SD0000064244
- 15 -
those conditions which are apt to be found in a normal municipal
sewage treatment plant. It's an aerobic teat using an activated
sludge from a St. Louis waste treatment plant. As a standard,
we use a soft detergent 'because it .is well known to other laboratories.
What we are doing, really is using our expertize that we established
back in the days when the hard versus soft detergent controversy
was quite common. And we are using these soft detergents that
do degrade as our controls and comparing the PCB's to these con
trols. The studies so far show that there are isomers within
each of these mixtures -that do degrade. The lower the chlorine
level/, the faster they disappear, the higher the chlorine level
the more resistant they are. Which only confirms what many of
a,
us had suspected. We were not. too surprised by this data.
.
I will attempt to summarize ... I think we can conolude that PCB's.are in the environment. There is no question about it. Many of these PCB's are manmade and were introduced to the environ ment because of our lack of understanding of what these materials can d6 to the environment, In this country Monsanto, as sole producer, has attempted to improve the situation by limiting the applications to which these materials are used. studies today would indicate that these PCB's are not. and cannot be classified as highly toxic. There is still a lot of information
*/ that is needed to help us determine the long term erfect on human beings. We feel that the properties of these materials make them, at least as of today, the most suitable material for use in trans formers, capacitors and heat transfer systems. We also believe that under proper conditions we can control the amount of these
HONS 041647
WATER PCB-SD0000064245
- 16 -
that do enter the environment to the point where the adverse
effects are not great and that the benefits we derive Tar out
weigh the minor adverse effects that we might notice. Now there
are many of us in the transformer and capacitor application
that have made tremendous strides in controllng these materials.
I suspect our objective is to further Improve our ability to
control this material. In my personal opinion the emotion
that is now prevailing regarding PCB's is something that we
must contend with. Whether we believe in It or not, there
:_
,
are many people that sincerely believe PCB's should-be totally
banned.

DISCONTINUATION OF THETOHNOtf FK SALES
* Would go to Vies Presidents/Businesa Group Direotore only plus Specialty Products aroup field sales/Regional Managers.
1. Q. 'Why has Monsanto decided to discontinue Therminol FR heat transfer fluid sales?
A, We have previously written to all Therminol FR heat transfer fluid customers alerting them to the precautions necessary in handling and using these PCB-containlng products. Earlier this year we stopped selling Therminol FR fluids for new heat trans fer fluid systems. We also discontinued sales of make-up Therminol FR fluid to food-related applications and worked with these customers in converting FR fluid to non-PCB heat transfer liquids (e.g., Therminol 55 and Therminol 66), We have now de cided to discontinue all Therminol FR heat transfer fluid sales in the U.S.A, and Canada because there are serious problems
associated with the possibility of accidental leakage of PCB from heat transfer systems. `
2. Q. *Who within Monsanto decided to discontinue Therminol FR heat
transfer fluid sales?
A, This decision was made by Monsanto* s corporate management and
affirmed by its Board of Directors at their monthly meeting in
December, 1971
3. Q. *Does this action mean Monsanto is getting out of the heat transfer business?
A, No, The sales ban applies only to the FR series of fluids (Therminol"' FR-Lo Temp, Therminol FR-0 and Therminol FR-l), The FR series
_ is the only one that contains PCBs. All other Therminol heat trans-
HONS 0*3A88
WATER PCB-SD0000064247
2-
fer fluids (Thtnalnol 55, 66, 77 and 88) are PCB-free. 4. Q, *Are you banning sales of all Therminol fluids?
A, No, Not all Therminol fluids contain PCBa. Therminol PR series (i.e., FR-Io Temp, PR-0 and PR-l) are the only ones containing PCBs. All other Therminol1* fluids (i.e,, Therminol 55, 66, 77 and 88) are PCB-free.
5. Q. *What replacements are available from Monsanto for Therminol fr fluids?
A. The most likely Monsanto replacements are Therminol 55 or 66. We roust advise you that none of Monsanto's remaining Therminol heat transfer fluids are fire resistant. We suggest you v/ork closely with your insurance company in converting from Therminol PR fluids so that you make a carefully considered Informed de cision. As stated,in our letter of December 15, 1971, Monsanto has a team of engineers available to be of assistance to you in making your decision. They may be contacted by telephone at (314) 694-2514 or by writing Dr. Cummlng Paton, Monsanto Company, P.O. Box 14617, St. Louis, Missouri 63178.
6. Q, *What other fire resistant heat transfer fluids are available from Monsanto?
A. Unfortunately we have none available and will not have one availa ble in the foreseeable future.
7. Q, *What other fire-resistant heat transfer fluids are available in the U.S.A. cr Canada?
HONS 043<*89
WATER PCB-SD0000064248
-3"
A. The only fire resistant heat transfer media we know of are high pressure water and molten salts. Both of these systems have dis advantages which may rule them out as replacements for many existing Thenninol PR systems.
CD X>
Could I obtain PCB fluids outside the U.S.A. or Canada? PCBs are manufactured in Prance, West Germany, Italy and Japan. The decision on imports is yours to make. We would suggest, however, you consider such a course of action very carefully.
9. Q. A,
Will Monsanto'3. ban on PCBs for sale in heat transfer systems apply world-wide? Yes, as soon as the decision can be implemented.
10. Q. A.
Will a world-wide ban on Thenninol PR sales go into effect immediately? As promptly as it can be implemented.
11. Q. Have any of your competitors in PCB manufacture announced a similar ban?
A. Not to our knowledge. However, we believe they are considering restrictions on PCB sales. Bayer has already made an announcement to this effect. Furthermore, certain European countries (e.g., Sweden) have taken action limiting the imports of PCBs. Other countries could well follow suit.
12. Q. Why has Monsanto acted so precipitately on Thenninol PR sales? A. We do not consider our action precipitous.
HONS 0^3^90
WATER PCB-SD0000064249
-4-
13. Q. Why la Monsanto giving overseas customers longer to convert than its U.S.A. and Canadian customers?
A. Implementing a decision of this kind on an International basis takes time.
14. Q. This latest policy on Therminol PR sales is not consistent with Monsanto's previous differentiation between "open" and "closed" PCS systems. Why is Monsanto changing its policy.
A, We are concerned about accidental leakage over which we have no control. Our policy ha3 not changed.
15. Q. By banning Therminol PR sales, is Monsanto admitting that PCBs are the toxic, dangerous chemicals that many scientists, ecologists and writers have been suggesting for over two years?
A. The extent to which PCBs are toxic and dangerous is a relative and complex matter. We believe this aotion and our previous actions concerning PCBs have been reasonable and rational. We believe we have acted as reasonably as any manufacturer could on learning an increasing amount Of previously unknown information about one of its products.
16. Q, The FDA recently stated (PDA Press Conference September 29, 1971) that the alarm over PCBs is greater than the facts Justify. PDA also rejected an outright ban on PCBs as some critics have called for. The PDA does not believe PCBS are an imminent hazard. In view of these FDA statements why has Monsanto acted so precipitately in apparent contradiction of FDA?
HONS 0^3^91
WATER PCB-SD0000064250
-5-
A. We respect the opinion of PDA and are aware of it. The FDA, however, is not a corporation engaged in the manufacture and eale of products, and its ODlnion on this subject does not govern our decision. Again, we do not feel we have acted precipitously.
17. Q. * We do not dispute Monsanto' s reason for Its decision on
Therminol PR fluids; our strong criticism of Monsanto con
cerns the lack of warning by Monsanto that they were going
to ban Therminol PR sales. Why were we given no warning.
A. Our previous comrrunl cat ions should have alerted you to the
possibility of this decision on our part. We believe warning's
were given. We communicated our decision that no new heat
transfer systems would be sold Therminol PR. Sale of Therminol '
PR to food-related applications was discontinued. In addition,
we have encouraged remaining customers to consider converting
to a non-Thermino1 PR fluid either before or at the time for
the next "make-up".
.
18. Q.* We believe it is impossible to oonvert all Therminol PR systems in the U.S.A. and Canada on the day your decision was received. That means heat transfer systems are still operating on PR fluid; why can't we have another drum or two to last until such time as we can shut down our plant for conversion?
HONS 0<*3<*92
WATER PCB-SD0000064251

. Monsanto believes that lee-way In the matter of filling Therminol1^ FR orders after Its decision was communicated could lead to stock piling, which we believe is unwise under the present circumstances. One of the key reasons for establishing a team of engineers at Monsanto is to give advice and assistance to aid customers in arriving at informed decisions on how to handle such situatior.3. Assistance may be obtained by calling (3l4) 694-2514 at Monsanto'3 St, Louis headquarters,
19. Q,. A.
From recent PCB production figures given out by Monsanto, there are other applications besides heat transfer for PCBs. What action has Monsanto taken on PCBs in these other applications? Simply enumerate the actions.
20. Q , We see that dielectric applications are by far the biggest user of PCBs. Shouldn't they be the ones to be shut down?
A , Based on the information available to us at this time we believe the risk of accidental escape from this use is slight. Our opinion on this may change. .
2i Q , I buy PCB for both dielectric and heat transfer uses. Why can I get one but not the other?
A . Because, In our opinion, the risk of accidental leakage and possi ble resulting contamination is less in one U3e than in the other.

WATER PCB-SD0000064252

22. Q.* How long will the engineering team be available to help on conversions?
A, We would hope most customers will have converted to non-PR fluids in the first four months of 1972. However, the engineer ing team supplements the ongoing team of Monsanto heat transfer fluid specialists. Monsanto's heat transfer fluid specialists are always available for reasonable periods to assist customers.
23. Q. Is there any possibility Monsanto's replacement heat transfer fluids may be discontinued as abruptly as Therminol FR?
A. We do not consider our decision abrupt. We have no present plans for discontinuing sales of replacement fluids, but our customers should anticipate that we will react responsibly to new information about our products as we have with PCBs.
24. Q.* What evidence do you have that Therminol 55 and 66 will not give
similar problems to the ones that have arisen with Therminol FR?
A. We will send you bulletins on Therminol 55 or 66 which contain
relevant data on this subjeot. '
.
25. Q. What is the attitude of FDA and USDA on Therminol 55 and 66 as
replacements for Therminol FR?
A.
*

26. Q. Your letter of December 15, 1971 states that refunds on returned Therminol PR fluids will not be given after March 1, 1972. Does this mean I must convert to another fluid by then?
A. The decision on when and. to what to convert is yours. The re fund policy applies only to unopened drums of Therminol FR you may be carrying as inventory in your warehouse.
27. Q. I Just filled my TherminolFR system in early 1971. The fluid is in excellent condition and could probably be reclaimed by Findett to be as good as new. Will you allow me credit if I return the drained fluid by March 1. 1972?
A. No.
28. Q. Are you banning TherminolFR fluids because Monsanto admits
liability In the HoliyParma lawsuit?
A. We admit no liability in the Holly Farms lawsuit. We point out
that Holly Farms sued the user of PCS heat transfer fluid as well
29. a.
as Monsanto.
I have read of the Holly Farms lawsuit against Monsanto. Have
you other lawsuits pending on PCBs. If any, what are they about?
A. Questions concerning lawsuits should be directed to our Law Dept.
30. Q, Does Monsanto know of any cases where plant employees have suffered Illness or harm because of PCBs and Therminol FR in particular?

31. Q. What should I tell my employees if they ask why we are switching from Thenninol FR to a more hazardous fluid as far as fire safety is concerned?
A. The decision is yours. Perhaps you might indicate that the material is no longer available.
32. q. Does Monsanto consider PCB to be a toxic and dangerous substance to humans and wildlife?
A. The question is not susceptible of a simple yes or no answer. We can refer you to scientific information from which you may draw your own conclusions.
33. Q. Monsanto has made great play in its press statements on the safety aspects of PCBa with respect to their use in dielectrics. In heat transfer, we chose Thenninol FR solely on the grounds of safety where we could protect the lives of our employees, neighboring citizens and valuable property. Why does Monsanto discriminate on safety? Why use safety as an excuse for continued PCB sales . in one area and not in another?
A. Because, in our opinion, the risk of accidental leakage and possible resulting contamination is less in one use than in the other.
34. Q. Was any pressure put on Monsanto by government agencies, environ mental groups or other quasi-official groups to ban Thermlnol sales?
A. The decision was the Independent internal decision of the top management of this company.

Dear Sir:
Since early 1970 we have been advising your company of signifi cant developments relating to the polychlorinated' biphenyl (PCS) environmental situation.
As you know, many pollution control agencies conduct monitoring programs to evaluate the presence and impact of many materials on the environment. Some of these programs Include PCS.
Recently a representative of a governmental pollution oontrol agency contacted Monsanto requesting information concerning PCB sales. Specifically, he asked for names and addresses of PCB customers In his area, with the quantities of PCB product
sold to each. He stated that this information was being requested because significant amounts of PCB were being detected in the discharge from sewage treatment facilities in his area.
__
He was informed that Monsanto considers Information of this type confidential and, therefore, does not disclose it outside the Company. He subsequently informed us that the request for information was being sent to the local federal dlstriot attorney for appropriate action.
As we have pointed out on numerous occasions to representatives
of government and of private groups, Monsanto has long had a policy, whloh it continues to follow, of treating information concerning its customers as confidential information. However, you. should be aware that, because of governmental or Judicial orders or requirements or because of a change in circumstances resulting from the unique nature of the PCB problem, Monsanto may at some future date be obligated to dlsoloae such informa tion to qualified persons.

We wish to strongly re-emphasize with you the Importance of avoiding direct or accidental PCB contamination of feed, food and packaging material and of preventing PCB'a from escaping into the environment. We direct your attention to the recent PDA notice of proposed rule making on PCB's published in the Federal Register, Vol. 37, No. 54, pp 57Cp and following, dated March 18, 1972. If PCB1s are still present at your locations you are urged to thoroughly review your procedures and lnspeot your facilities to insure that extreme care is taken in the handling, use, storage, and disposal of these materials.

AN INDIRECT AROCLOR HEATER for UNIT CHEMICAL OPERATIONS
Montonlo Tschnicol Bulletin No. P-130
September, 1949
Mon *onto Chemical Company
St. Louie (4), Missouri
Aroclor* 1248 (chlorinated biphenyl) is an ideal nonflammable ljquid
phase heat-transfer medium for temperatures up to 300C.
'
This bulletin describes the physical properties of Aroclor 1248 and illustrates the design and operation of heaters that have been used successfully by Monsanto plants during the past seven years, The units described are gas fired and the capacities are in the range of 200,000 to 400,000 R.t.u. per hour.
Other larger commercial installations using Aroclor 1248 have capac ities ranging up to 2,000,000 B.t.u. per hour.
Also small electrically heated stationary and portable units with capac ities around 40,000 B.t.u. per hour,using Aroclor 1248 as the heattransfer medium,are in service.
Several leading manufacturers of heating equipment are in position to build or offer Aroclor heating units to meet specific requirements.

Xhr clierselerUtlce of Aroclor 1144 Indicate that it Is in Ideal llqiiii' phase liral-rtclini|c medium for temper* I lire* up to 300* C, This article dfscustes its properties anil Illustrates the design end operation of heaters that hare Ixen usetl successfully hy Monsanto plants during the pssl seven years.
IN CERTAIN manufacturing prooetacs of U10 Monsanto
Clicmleal Coiii|Miiy, it was ncoeaeary to employ a noneonrbustible hnat-lranafor medium at pressure* of 80 pounds per square Inch or leas ami tein|>eraturc up to 800* C. Tho following general projicrUoa of a heat-exchange medium were required:
Freedom from fire liatarda. Viscosities to permit pumping at room temperature*. 1 toiling point cuflictrully above 800* C. to assure a liquid 000ditioti at all time*. liability against heat, with enough safety factor to iceonimodat accidental ovcrlkcating. ControlUldc vajkoritetion tosses. Krccdoin from corrosive action agahaK valves, piping, tank jackets, etc., made of east Iron and stools, braots, sad tlainlees atcel. Freedom from toxicity hazard.
Aroclor, chlorinated biplmnyl (registered in U. 8. Patent Office), wa* selected. The pertinent phytiea) eharaeteristiea relnlivc to its use as a heat-transfer medium are given in Table 1.
ntKMIOM FROM FIRE HAZARDS
Flash i'oiKT. UmiUtioM of (hit test for the prediction of tire fire hazard of relatively nonvolatile organie fluids have been recognised by the American Society for Testing Materials 00mmittce (3, 4)-
Fhk Point is a more aigitilleant meamirement. The Under writer*' laboratories {JO) stale that fire Wats more truly reflect the (lack of) fire hazard of Aroclor.
BroHTAttaotis lonmoH Tempbhavuhk. The eombuationrnualing qualities of Aroclor 1348 are indicated by its high spon taneous ignition temperature of 704* C. (1393* F.) determined by Sullivan, Wolfe, end Zkmma (B\ using the convenient apparatus described by Snrtmsa, Baity, and Heron ().
Under conditions af Waatrial use the spontaneous ignition tcni|icrniurn will be determined by faetore including the nature of Urn hot surface, the amount <fl liquid impinging ou it, the volume of enclosed apace, and the ventilation.
An accidental failure in a boating system demonstrated the nonflammaliility of Aroclor 1348 an<f its freedom from the Imiard of fire propagation. An operator's failure to start the circulation of tiic heatctransfer medium when the gas beater was on resulted In excessive coil temperature* and caused the tower coil to soften and tag into the fire chamber. A weld ruptured and Aroclor 1348 poured into tho rod-hot fire chamber in contact with the flame. lJciise smoke arose from tho heater but there was no externa) fire. After the gas flame was eut off, the smoking atopjwd.

Ssaat Flammasiuty. When a lul>e ruptures io a liquid heattransfer ayatem under higli pressure, a epray or mul forma. The possible fire hasard under theso oonditiona require* oontideratlone not oovered by the foregoing discuaaiooe relative to the ma teria) in the liquid form. In thoir oompreheneive study of flammability of the higher boiling liquid* and tbeir miets, Sulli van, Wolfe, and Ziiman (9) determined tho spray flammability limit of numerous materials in accordance wilb the peroeotage of oxygon required for combustion. This value was then oorrelated with tire results of ineondiary firing testa of the fluids oohdueted at tho Naval Proving Ground, Dahlgren, Va. The oxygen re quirement for Aroclor 1248 oombuetion in the epray flammability limit studies was found to be 04%. Fluids requiring over 43 to 50% oxygen in the spray test failed to cause a fire in the Incendi ary test. These results eeUhlieh the nonflammable and nonoombustible qualities of Aroclor 1248.

the heeler had been effected to that the sydera could operate normally.
WIIJNC FOIST
Operating experience has shown tliat the boiling point of Aro olor 1248 (340* C. at 780 nun.) is enough above the 300* C. operating limit to prevent trouble from this came. At the maxi mum operating temperature the vapor pressure is teas thaa 0.5
atmosphere.
HEAT STABILITY
In order to establish a maximum practical operating tempera
ture, the stability of the material when heated to elevated tem peratures in the presence of Iron waa noted. A alow stream of
nitrogen was passed over tbe bot Aroolor to sweep tbe decom
position products Into a caustic trap. The amount of acktis
material was determined and calculated as hydrochloric add.
The results given in Table II indicate the stability of Aroeior 1248
when individual camples were beaUd for 10
hours at the gives **>mprature. The deeom* podUon is very low at temperatures up to
300* C. The liability of Aroolor 1241 in contact with
L
iron continuously heated at 280* and 830* C. is
indicated by Table III. These test results Indi
cate that Aroolor 1248 in con tact vHb Ires caa be used
laUAsterOy at Uatperaitne
apwWC. The National Board of Fire
UedswHteraf/0) reported that
"dceotepodlion of tbe product
(Aroeior 1248) was not appreci
able at temperatures below 400* C., but became lacreae-
ingly apparent at higher tem

The same workers studied the stability of Aroclor when betted
for 4 hours In an iron pipo at 280* C. under an internal pressure
of 210 pounds per square inch, resulting from the ml reduction ol
comprsssod air. Following this treatment and cooling, the rases
removed from tho system were analysed. The aridity of tbs
Aroeior was determined prior to and after exposure to these cooditions.
1 he reeulle given in Table IV reflect an extremely small amouot of decomposition under conditions similar to thoec selected for the practical use of Aroolor 1248 aa a heal.transfer medium
In actual practice using the type of heating unit described below thero has been no evidence of hydrochloric acid effect and oo car bon deposits have been noted in the heater, pipex, nr valves. Tbe heaters have boen operated successfully with combustion ga*e at approximately 600* C. in contact with the coils.
At one time, a spiral coil type of heater was built am) through
faulty design a burner tunnel was located 1.5 inches from the 2ineh steel pipe eoll. The radiation from the white-hut refractory
tunnel and the dlrectHmpincement of the flame on the pipe caused
the pipe to glow a dark red tor a epace of about 2 inches. This unit was operated almost 3 months before a circulation stoppage
occurred. When the line was opened lumps of carlron were fouod to have come loose and moved forward to lodge in the glebe valvos. Tha lumps measured about I X 3.5 cm. and one fac* wai
formed to At the pips curvature. No hydrochloric acid effect was noted and the system was put back Into operation after tbe burner location was changed.
CONTBOLLABLC VAPORIZATION LOSSES
The heating eyeterns In which Aroclor 1348 is wed are ceded
except for the expansion tank, which has a loose cover or a veai
pipe. Because this tank is separated from the ilream by a cub-
ctentiel length of pipe, the temperature in the tank reinr' low.
in the light of the relatively low vapor prenure v
lot
Aroclor 1248 (T\ and as it is unlikely that the expansion U..A will
ever reach even the 1-mrn. data (130* C.l, there should not be
measurable loss of Aroclor from the system. Aclunl experienci
hears out this contention.
Oman Losses. Although Aroclor darken on uec, its chares
tcrietios remain the came and replacement has not I>ood (ouoi;
necossary after 7 years of continuous use. Accidental leeks o<
spills constitute the only observed losses.

Heater Demon. The general requirements of tha heater are
compactness, case of construction and service, and avoidance of
direct flume impingement on the tubes.
Direct flame impingement is prevented by directing Die gat flame through an enclosed channel with half-thickness fire bnck protecting Uie tube* above until the high tein|icraturc of' the flame is reduced bv heat cqpductcd through these bricks Md radiated to the two bottom coils. The site of the heater ia redused to minimum by using nnlv 4.5 indies of insulating fire brick is the hottest areas and 2 incites at Nagle .Vo. 86 insulation on the cooler spots.
Two site* of units arc turd: One lies a maximum capacity of 200,000 li.t.u. per hour, as sliown in Figure 1. The larger has a range of 200,000 to 400,000 H.t.u
The small sise consists ot 90 fvet of 1-lneh standard weight steel pipe made into Uimo coils of six pipes each and connected in series. The larger site eondsta of 144 feet of 1.5-inch standard weight steel pi|ie arranged in the same fashion. Iteeult* of tests un the small-siie heater covering temperatures from ISO* to 840* C. show temperature rises to 10* to 30* C. in l!>e Aroelor whilo circulating at a rate of 15 to 20 gnlloiis per minute. The outlet gas temperature ia consistently within 75* C. of the outh'l Aroelor temperature. It is observed that live bottom two coils ab sorb Die major part of the heat. Thr small unit indirnlct 50 to 60Cc rfiieR'neics for capacities up L> 300,000 U.t.u. per hour hen a natural gas of 1000 B.l.u. per cubic foot is burned.

The Dayton Dowd Type C pump is an example of the type required. It cJiould be made of cast steel and Hava a watercooled (luffing box and water-cooled bearings. The (luffing box thouId have room for at least six rings of peeking and a lantern ring. Durametallic No. D-110 or Garlock No. 234 may be used for packing the pump. An open impeller is desirable, m It will handle the cool, more viseoue liquid on starting tha system better then will a closed In)poller. Enough horsepower lor the most vlsooue ooedltioos Is required.
I 'imho SrsrsM amp Extanuom Tam*. The detail of tbe piping ,vim for Aroelor 134* used up to temperatures of 100* C. (i;2* F.) and 100 pounds per square inch pressure is given In Table VI. The valves and (poolallies given indicats ths type re
quired. Alt piping larger than 0.75 inch is flanged or welded; ex perience Has shown that hot Aroelor penetrates screwed joint* of
the larger dies. Stool aad east etc) are used throughout. Tha system requires ea expensioa tank located at tbe highest
level of the InsteUaUoa. The dee of this tank is normally about 35% of the capacity of the Aroelor system. Coaoeotioos with valves, mad oa sitbsr ride of the pump, enable the operator to connect a ftasfck hate and to pemp in or out as required.
For opsnftlsa la Vocations where the Aroelor temperature may
drop to wfcsse the attendant viscosities may make pumping iropraotksi la the system as designed, it may be desirable to steam-
jacket the Aroelor circulating lines to facilitate rapid start-up. Suitable safety provisions, such as safety pop-ofl valves, must be Installed in the steam jaeksl system to prevent pressure ruptures which would develop U any condensate remained in a dosed sys
tem during high temperature operation.
In order to establish operating conditions and to cheek the operation of the beater itself, it is often desirable to measure the temporalutes of the Aroelor in and out of the heater and cooler. Items 9, 10, and 11 (Figure 2) provide for Ibis. They may be dial thermometers or mercury bulb thermometers of any commercially tvsJIablo type recommended for the service.

resins and plasticizers for chlorinated rubber
INTRODUCTION
Monsanto produces a scries oi chlorinated biphenyls and polyphrnyls identified by the trade mark Aroclor* for use as plasticizers and resins for chlorinated rubber base lacquers, varnishes and paints. These protective coatings are fire resistant, corrosion resistant, chemical resistant (to acids, alkalies and water), and have good electrical insulating properties.
When properly pigmented, these coatings have unusually good weatherability. Chlorinated rubber films plasticized with an Aroclor grip common structural materials in strong adhesive bond? and the addition of an Aroclor improves the flexibility and life of chlorinated rubber and plastic coatings.
The formulations suggested in this bulletin are common in commercial practice today. They arc given as a starting point or guide in developing formulations that expand the outstanding 0 qualities of these com|>ounds,
Naming of Aroclor Compounds
The last two digits in a numbered scries refer to the degree of chlorination by weight. Aroclor 1248 is a biphenyl with 48 per cent chlorination. Aroclor 5460 is a lerphenyl with 60 per cent chlorination. Two special mixtures are:
Aroclor 4465--a 60:40 mixture (biphenyl to lerphenyl) with 65 per cent chlorination.
Aroclor 2565--a 75:25 mixture (biphenyl to terpheny!) with 65 per cent chlorination.
The physical properties of the Aroclor plasticizers vary gradually with the degree of chlorination. At low [icrcentages of chlorine, such as Aroclor 1221 and 1232, the compounds are dear and very fluid. At 42 per cent they resemble vegetable oil; at 48 per cent they thicken slightly and look more like a medium-grade mineral oil. At 54 per cent.chlorine, the compounds are quite viscous; if a bottle containing them is turned upside down, the bubble rises slowly to the top. At higher percentages, the biphenyls become gumlike, and a fingerprint on the surface lasts several days. Then at 68 per cent chlorine, the range is complete; Aroclor 1268 is a white powder. The tcrphenyls (Aroclor 5442 and 5460) are both yellowish solids.
Thegradual change In physical properties often allows a processor to select a plasticizer particularly suited for his deration. For example, if he wants to dry mix the plasticizer, Aroclor 1268 could be used. It melts at higher processing temperature and can act as a solvent-plasticizer.

Films cast from these lacquers show improved characteristics due to Aroclor. Some of their advantages are listed below :
Adhewon Unplaslicizctl chlorinated rubber films have very poor adhesion. The lacquer film containing Aroclor 5-460 pave pood adhesion to aluminum, bare steel, primed steel, galvanized iron and "Transite" surfaces. Othea commercial resins, particularly oil-modified alkyd resins, pave better adhesion to glass, tin, copper, scaled wood and cellophane. The lacquer films plasticized with Aroclor 1254 or 1260 pave pood adhesion to "Transite," cellophane, gal vanized iron and primed steel surfaces. Some of the other commercial plasticizers tested in similar films gave better adhesion to aluminum, tin, bare steel, copper and scaled wood surfaces. Though compounds with an Aroclor alone possess pronounced adhesive qualities, better adhesion to all of the surfaces results if mixtures of Aroclor or varied contents are used.
Rctbfancc fo Aqueous Solutions Chlorinated rubber films with Aroclor 1254 or 1260 (plasticizers) and Aroclor 5460 (resin) show satisfac tory resistance to solutions of 10 per cent hydrochloric acid, 5 per cent sodium hydroxide. 5 per cent sodium chloride and water spot tests.
Film Hardness Softer films were produced with Aroclor 5460 in ratios of 5:10 and 10:10 Mroc/or;" Parlon") than with other commercial resins in similar mixtures. Likewise, softer films result from Aroclor 1 254 or 1260 in ratios of 2:10 and 5:10 (drr>c/or;"Parlon") than with other commercial plasticizers at these concentrations. From these tests com|>ounds with Aroclor are shown to have strong plasticizing action on chlorinated rubber.
Cold-Check Resistance Aroclor 5460 is superior to phenol formaldehyde resins in cold-check resistance imparled to chlorinated rubber films, but not as good as alkyds modified with long oil. Aroclor 1260 used as a plasticizer proved somewhat belter than Aroclor 1254.
Wealhor Resistance Pigmented chlorinated rubber finishes containing Aroclor have consistently withstood outdoor weather tests, but unpigmented finishes do not stand up well regardless of the resin or plasticizer used. Poor resistance to ultraviolet light is also a weakness of chlorinated rubber. Most pigments (except ultra marine blue) are usable with "Parlon" and are recommended if the coating is to be subjected to outdoor weather or ultraviolet light. However, pigment protection varies considerably. Inspection of alkyd enamels fortified with "Parlon" showed weatherability varied from 65 months with chrome green to 4 months (or titanium dioxide--iron blue combinations.
Sanding and Polithing Properties Plastic films compounded with "Parlon" and containing Aroclor 5460, 1254 and 1260 have shown satisfac tory sanding and polishing characteristics,

These formulations were applied to metal bars or panels and tested for resistance,
Formula I showed good resistance to 10 per cent hydrochloric acid and 5 per cent sodium hydroxide solutions.
Formula 2 gave excellent outdoor protection to metal surfaces on plants manufacturing acids.
Formula 3 performed well on exteriors of plants producing alkali.
Formula 4 had excellent resistance to acids, alkalis and salt solutions. It also showed good adhesion to glass and other surfaces.
Formula 5 proved good for resistance to warm, soapy water.
Note: No finishes with Arodor or chlorinated rubber are recommended for con tinuous exposure at temperatures above H0 F.
Marine Finisher
The marine industry makes great use of chlorinated rubber coatings plasticized with Arodor to protect wood and metal on boats, barges and other marine equipment. They possess good resistance to salt water and their hard finish deters algae and other marine growth.

Emulsion Paints
If chemical resistance is required on porous surfaces, Arodor 1254 is often added to chlorinated rubber emulsion paints. The Hercules Powder Company reports that preferred water phases for such paints are either a 1 per cent distilled water solution of "Aerosol OT" or a 4 per cent distilled-water solution of sodium oleale. A lacquer-lo-water ratio of 2.5 to 1 (by weight) is suggested for the complete emulsion. "I'arlon" of any viscosity may be used. A typical paint phase for such an emulsion paint is given in Table IX.

Paper and Textile Coatings
Chlorinated rubber coalings with Aroclor are worthy of consideration for specific end uses in the paper and textile coating fields. In general, this type of coating is restricted by odor and taste. Unpigmented fin ishes seem suitable for certain fabrics used Indoors, but not for exposure to high temperatures or direct sunlight
Electrical Coatings
because of their desirable electrical properties, these compositions are useful for insulating and protecting electrical wire and apparatus from moisture. With selected fungistals and waxes, coatings of this t.vpc are used to protect electronic equipment in the tropics against moisture and fungi. The fire resistance of these plastics is an added dividend in the electrical field.
Printing InVs
Printing inks requiring a fast drying time and chemical resistance are often based on chlorinated rubber compositions plasticized with an Aroclor. These inks are especially useful on soap wrappers and boxes, bottle labels and many other commodities because of their alkali resistance.

Toxicity
Animal toxicity studies and 20 years of manufacturing and use experience indicate that Aroclor compounds arc not serious industrial health hazards. If the materials are heated to volatilization, ventilation should lie provided to prevent inhalation of vapors. This is true of other major components of the formulation as well as the Aroclor compounds.
Related or prolonged skin contact should be avoided although there are few instances of skin irritation. Human patch tests with finished products containing Aroclor compounds have shown no irritation. Mon santo will furnish information on specific Aroclor compounds upon request.

LET'S TALK
ABOUT
THE
M
IN TRANSFORMERS
OILS -- that can burn
Thorn are quite a number of these. They are sold by oil companies; and those mineral oils aro used in transformers where, if they catch fire, no great harm tbesides the transformer itself) comes from the burning oil. If water gets into an oil-filled transformer, it tends to settle through the oil to the bottom. There are certain ways to cheek on the health of mineral oil insulation, too, but the "Check points" are somewhat different than for askarel.
ASKAR ELS -- that cannot burn
Although there aro TWO fj/prs of askarel fluids (supplied under a number of brand names), actually they all have just one and the same basic ingredient: Monsanto's Aroclor*' 1260. (If you want to know, Aroclor 1260 is he.xachlorobiphenyl). And THIS is one of the world's best liquid insulations!
REY 000877
WATER_PCB-SD0000064351
don't worry about "different kinds'
So, what. are the two types? What's the difference? Simply this; (hey have different pour points and the tiny amount of "scavenger" chemical added to each is different. The I'vranol N70 (General hilectrict type has the lower pour point; it will still pour at 17 below (F.i aero. Thu Inerteen ITU (Weslmghousoi type will pour down to 2GC below 1F.1 /.ero. These two types each contain a tiny amount of a dilferent additive; both additives are good and do their job. However, the additive in I'yranol type askarel can crystallize nut a bit at 14 above 1K.1 zero. It does no harm; the crystals disappear after a while when the transformer warms up.
Other brand names, like (fhlorextol i Allis Chalmersi; Nollamol
i Wagner Kleelrici; Ashcstol lAmertran Corp.i; Saf-T-Kuhl iKuhl-
in;iii Klcctrici
are either one type or the other. Some manu
facturers simply call their lluid by the common descriptive name:
askarel. Hut. transformer manufacturers who supply askarel fluids
have sound reasons for favoring their own type. So, it's best to
slay with your particular brand.
However, since basically askarel is askarel, there will be no difference in the operation of your transformer if IN EMERGENCY you would interchange or even mix the two types!
Hut askarel is NOT oil cannot, should not, must not be mixed with ordinary transformer oil. For one reason: the inside core materials used with mineral oil Tilled units get gooey with askarel. For another reason over 2'of mineral oil mixed into askarel "clobbers" its lire resistance. For another reason never mind! Don't mis or interchange utkarcl and ait.
"Askarel" liquid insulation is a very carefully-manufactured, highly pure, chemically made fluid. It does not vary in composition like the range of oils. AND . . . askarel ia limner than water. If water gets into askarel insulation, only a smidgeon 1125 ppmi dissolves the rest flout* an tap.
Ankuret is one of the maul Jire-rvxixtunt, chciiucalhj-incrl, heat-Mahlr tii/nuta crcr iterelopcii! You cun be sure of this: askarel dues not deteriorate when exposed to air, heal, hot metal; it does not break down over long use to form conducting or corrosive chemicals; it does not sludge or oxidize. Askarel will remain perfectly stable year after year after year unless broken down by exposure to severe arcing the kind that could set an oil transformer afire. The only real "enemy" of askarel is: contamination by water.

NOW LET'S TALK
year to year oocrcl
One of the most brain-y electrical engineers in the business once said: "The best 'maintenance' for askarel transformers is KEEP 'KM DRY, and leave them alone!"
This business of "keep 'em dry," however, whether your trans former is EITHER an oil-type or an askarel type, is the watchword! It takes some care. In fact, anything MECHANICALLY you can do to stop moist air breathing and condensation will be the best health insurance for your liquid filled transformer. Here are some of the questions that come up when you want to "keep 'em dry."
Is your transformer a welded shell or a gasket top? (even the tightest gaskets can "breathe!")
Does your transformer run, stop; run, stop; run, stop? (This hot-to-cold temperature cycling makes the breathing faster and harder!)
Is air around it mostly cold and dry or hot and moist? (Wouldn't it be great for automobiles and transformers if there wasn't any such thing as condensation!)
When you have "breathing" and high humidity -- you can cut back on check-ups if you fit the transformer with a drying device tall transformer makers offer these) or you can bleed dry nitrogen into the shell. Any mechanical steps you take to stop inside con densation will be double insurance on trouble-free operation.
Of course, if you are ordering a brand new transformer - - either oil or askarel type -- you can "design out" most of the moistureentry points. Basically, you call for all-welded construction, in cluding fins, pipes, and instrument connections AND a recessed gasket for the hand holes.
(If you or your electrical equipment supplier would like more complete details on tips to keep innards dry, we can send you a copy of: "Design Details For Moisture Protection of Liquid In sulation Transformers.")
So you'll be happy to learn that preventing moisture contamina tion is the only major health insurance you need provide for your askarel insulation.

CHECKING THE CHECKPOINTS
Now you are well on your way (.u being an "expert." Since you know that keeping tabs on MOISTURE is the major checkpoint on your askarel transformer, let's ask:
How do you keep tabs on moisture? You do this by a periodic test o( the askarel's dielectric strength. Do not bother to check -- or If you do -- do not be misled or dis turbed by relatively high power factor... or even a drop In volume resistivity. (If you want to know why, you can read the fine print on the following page.)
The DIELECTRIC STRENGTH of the askarel is your major clue to the "health" (i.e. dryness) of your askarel transformer. Besides taking a good look at a sample of your askarel -- dielectric strength is the only "test" you need actually run! Here's why: the dielectric strength of askarel is sensitive to moisture; nof tensilm to other ordinary contaminants (like metal dust, salts, dirt, etc.). The dielectric strength is also hurt by severe arcing, but you'll know that arcing is the culprit if the askarel has gotten noticeably black or has particles of sooty carbon floating in it. Unless you've had severe arcing (lightning, accidental overload, back surge, etc.), the dielectric strength is your "moisture indicator."
New askarel has a minimum dielectric strength of 35 KV at 25*C.; a maximum moisture content of 30 ppm. If you check the dielectric strength periodically, And that it is rapidly decreasing -- this is your "clue" to moisture pick-up, arcing, or both. When the moisture content rise to 100-120 ppm (or over) -- the dielectric strength will drop to 20 KV or less. That's your clue!
INSPECT FOR WATER CONDENSATION IN THE SHELL, AND "REFINE" THE ASKAREL.
As the operator, you will have to judge how oflen you want to check up on your askarel insulation. Steadily running, well-sealed askarel transformers have run as long as 25 years on the initial charge of askarel -- and the dielectric strength still checked out at above 30 KV. HOWEVER, if the dielectric strength drifts down ward to 25-20 KV at 25*C. -- then it is time to "clean-up" the liquid insulation and to get rid of any water accumulation in the shell, too. This askarel clean up is relatively simple; the askarel need NOT be discarded. BUT MOST IMPORTANT . . . if the dielectric strength drops rapidly over a short period of time, this shows rspid pick-up of water (or arcing). When you take your sample for check-up -- be sure to take it carefully (so it represents the surface) and handle the sample properly (so it doesn't pick up moisture in the sampling).

You'll he able to "take tin: pulse" of your askarel insulation with the following five simple rapid tests, i Three are simply "inspectionby-eye!"i You can do these check-ups yourself or have the tests run by a local transformer service shop.
COLOR (by inspection!
New askarel is a clear, faint-
vellow liquid. After long-term use. the color will gradually
intensify to brown. Any color change, such as taking on a
green, red or blue cast, indicates extraction. If you find
a distinct change in color, the complete range of electrical
characteristics should be checked to learn if the extracted
color is the tell-tale for contamination.
CLARITY l by inspection i New askarel is clear and should remain clear in service. Development of turbidity or cloudi ness indicates contamination from water, insulation par ticles, metallic dust or dirt. Cloudiness or turbidity calls for a complete analysis. The exception to this would be cloudiness in a cold sample of I'YRASOL 1 i70. This type askarel contains a scavenger additive which will "come out" of solution when cold (around 15F.i and cause white turbidity and perhaps show salt-like deposits on the trans former shell. If thi3 is noticed, heat the askarel sample to 150-200F. for several hours and agitate. Upon heating, the Pyranol's additive will redissolve, as it will in a warm transformer.
BUCK COLOR AND SMALL CARBON PARTICLES (by in spection) - If the color of the sample is black, and especially
3 if suspended carbon particles can be seen, this shows lhat the askarel has arced and should be discarded. You can also detect exposure to strong arcing chemically, with indicator paper. Simply dip a piece of moist blue litmus papier into the askarel. If the blue litmus turns red. there is excess acidity from arcing beyond the limit absorbed by the "scavenger" additive.

skare.. insulation
DIELECTRIC STRENGTH (by A STM l)<>01, 1)877, The dielectric sircnj'th is tin* most important; and it is a simple test to make. The dielectric strength of new askarel is 25 KV at 25(\ minimum. This value should not he allowed to fall below 25-20 KV. I onlammant.s twhich may have pronutincod efTecl on the power factor and volume resis tivity I itxnalh/ do not lover asknnl's dielectric xtrenyth. Reduced dielectric strength almost always shows exposure to strong arcing or moisture contamination.
MOISTURE
The moisture content of new askarel is
20 parts per million maximum. The moisture so/a ration level
is about 125 ppm at ordinary temperatures. When the
moisture content approaches 125 ppm (saturation level',
the dielectric strength goes down. The moisture content
of askarel should not be allowed to rise over 70 ppm; it
should l)e held as near as possible to 20 ppm.
NOTE: If your sample shows 20-25 KV dielectric strength, you need not cheek for moisture. However, if you do check moisture, use the Karl Fisher Method, ASTM IT-1522.
IF ANY OF THESE FIVE CHECK-UPS APPEAR ABNORMAL, CON TACT YOUR TRANSFORMER MANUFACTURER FOR COMPLETE ANALYSIS. Those simple tests will show you the condition of your askarel insulation, but only indirectly the condition of your transformer. They can lie relied upon when the sample is carefully taken iso as not to "miss" water globules floating on the surface or adhering to the shell in the air space over the insulation/. So, if you have taken mechanical precautions against moisture entry into your askarel transformers and can "Keep 'em dry!" these tests will he your assurance that, between checks, you can "Forget 'em."
`The American Institute ol Electrical Engineers has published a comprehensive and informative guide tilled ''Proposed Guide lor Maintenance of Transformer Askarel." AIEE No. 76, December 1958. This guide describes properties to be inspected and the ASTM method to be used
Monsanto completely analyzes each production lot of transformer askarel hy these methods prior to shipment. However, these official tests are NOT ES SENTIAL to the user of askarel transloimers. When a complete analysis is re quired in a special case, the user should request it horn the transformer maker, who in turn can call on Monsanto if needed.

GROOMING ASKAREL FOR RE-USE
If strong arcing has blackened askarel, throw it away; it costs less to
replace arceil insulation than to reclaim it. If there's been no arcing,
but a low dielectric test shows moisture contamination, you'll
find it is quite easy to refine the askarel back to good operating
dielectric strength. Simply run the insulation through a dry. ab
sorbent filter.
Most operators prefer a portable refining apparatus, such as a plate press, fitted with a dolly, (available from Sparkler, Mundelein, III.); or the earthen cartridge filter type, (available from Industrial Filter Corp., Lebanon, Ind.). Filter paper liners for the plate press are available from Carl Schleicher & Schucll Co., Keane, N.H.
Any flexible hoses and gaskets on the refining equipment should be lined with or made of materials that will not be softened by contact with askarel fluid. (Silicone or Teflon materials are suitable).
If you use a filter press, before refining it is advisable to oven dry the filter paper at 100C. for a half hour to remove all moisture. If the askarel to be refined contains excessive moisture, circulate it hot (55-60C.) through the filter fitted with the paper liners only first. Then, refit press with dry paper and load it with the absorbent earth.
The earth refining process is simple;
1. SPREAD DRY EARTH EVENLY OVER THE FILTER SURFACE.
Fine-mesh Attapulgus clay or Fullers earth, dried and activated by heating tor 12 hours at 250"C. immediately prior to use, is highly efficient. The amount of earth used should be 0.1 to 0.2 per cent by weight of the askarel (askarel weighs about 13 pounds per gallon).
To deposit the earth evenly, stir one-third of the earth with a small portion of askarel in a clean container. Pump the mixture through the filter and follow with tv/o more one-third portions.
2. PUMP THE HEATED ASKAREL FROM TRANSFORMER THROUGH FILTER.
Circulate askarel taken from near the top of the transformer, pass it hot (55-60*0.) through the filter and feed back through the bottom transformer outlet.
3. CONTINUE CIRCULATING THROUGH THE FILTER UNTIL ASKAREL IS CLEAR.
When the askarel is clear use the simple tests described earlier to check tor restored dielectric strength.
4. CHECK THE TRANSFORMER AFTER REFINING.
After refining the askarel, the overall power factor and insulation resistance should closely approximate the values it would show with new askarel fluid.
If the overall power factor is more than 30-35 per cent (at 20C. and 60 cycles) it is considered POOR and it is advisable to run a complete analysis of the entire insulation system.

POWER FACTOR & VOLUME RESISTIVITY
High power factor and low volume resistivity in transformer mineral oils are commonly regarded as "danger signals" that the ml lias deteriorated anti broken down chemically.
This is NOT true of askarel liquid insulation.
New, unused askarel shows these electrical values:
I'owcr Factor:
0.05-0.2%
( 60 cycles. 20C.
(about 1-2.0% (" 60 cycles 100C.)
Volume Resistivity: X00-1000 x 10* ohm-cm (d 100C., 500V., DC., 0.1" gap i
Used askarel from SATISFACTORILY OPERATING TRANS FORM MRS normally (and frequently) shows
Lower Factor:
20 to 80% (" 60 cycles. 100C.
Vuliiinc Resistivity: about 25 x 10 ohm-cm (( 100"C., 500 V., DC., 0.1" gap)
This relHlively high powor factor nnd relatively low volumu re sistivity of used askarel ARK TO RE EXLECTED. Even at these levels, the askarel's dieloclric strength is STILL in the 30-05 K V range.
The reason is simple: askarel, unlike "oil," is a relatively polar liquid. The volume resistivity is sensitive to traces of conductive contaminants. However, even in the presence of largo amounts of contaminants, the volume resistivity (loos not seem to fall below 10 x 10* (ohm-cml. Yet the dielectric strength remains high, be cause intrinsically askarel remains a non-conductor.
To quote from Insulation Magazine, December 1961
DIELECTRIC LOSS YARDSTICKS
by John C. Motts, Manager Insulation Development Section, and Graham Ixjo Moses, Manager Services Engineering, Weelinghouse Electric Corp., East Lillaburgh, La.

\mi
want to make sure that your SAMI'LK truly represents your
askarel insulation.
TAKE YOUR SAMPLE AS CLOSE TO THE TOP OF THE LIQUID SURFACE AS POSSIBLE!
(Many large askarel transformers have a built-in sampling tube near the surface for convenient sam pling. If additional sampling tube connections arc contrived on to valves for easier sampling, make the tubes of clean glass, stainless steel, aluminum or tin fur rigid types; and silicone or Tellon tubing for ilexilile types.)
Wafer Jlouls on askarel. If there is any water in your transformer, it may collect in little puddles ON TUI' of the askarel. AND, therefore, more water will probably be dissolved in the askarel near the top, where it contacts any collected condensation.
If you IIiid low dielectric strength and high moisture in the askarel, you will probably want to thoroughly dry out the shell and take some mechanical steps to keep it dry.
When you take your askarel sample for testing, take the same precautions (but no more) that you take when sampling mineral oil:
1. Select a dry day. Do not sample insulation on a warm, moist day when humidity exceeds 75%, and
2 Make sure that the askarel is at least as warm as the sur rounding air. (Cold liquids can condense moisture from humid air.)
3. NEW containers (or fluid sample Your sample container should be a new and previously unused small mouth pint glass bottle fitted with a Bakelite screw cap fitted with an aluminum or tin bottle cap liner Make sure that the new bottle does not stand around open to collect dust or moisture. Rinse the sample bottle and cap lining two or three times with askarel from the transformer; then fill it. When sample will be tested promptly, a clear glass bottle can be used. If sample is to be stored indefin itely, use an amber glass bottle or wrap clear glass with aluminum foil.
Whenever a sample is to be shipped to the transformer manufacturer (or to Monsanto) for complete analysis, the container must be a 5-pint amber glass bottle. For your convenience, various transformer manufacturers and Monsanto will send you the sample bottle tilled with new askarel. You simply empty out the new askarel and re fill bottle with your sample.

Uul you might want these storage and handling "tips" to make you a complete transformer askarel expert.
STORE NEW ASKAREL IN A CLEAN DRY PLACE
Keep the 5, dO, or 55 gallon drums dry; turn them over on their sides to keep water off the drum head. (It can be sucked in by the drum "breathing."i
CLEAN UP SPILLAGE
Askarel can, if left standing, attack paint, rubber, or plastics. Absorb it from floors with sawdust, sweep, and then wipe dry. Use a rag wet with mineral spirits if you want to make sure it's all cleaned away.
TAKE ORDINARY PERSONAL CARE Transformer askarel has been made, handled and used for over :)0 years without causing toxic or other ill effects. Askarel can be handled in the same manner as insulating mineral oil. As with mineral oil, there may be some people allergic to askarel, so pro longed skin contact should be avoided where possible, When accidentally spilled or splashed on the skin, askarel does not present an acute hazard nor will it cause serious skin irritation. Simply wash it off with soap and water. If work clothes become impregnated with askarel, they should be removed and washed. K.ye contact may cause temporarily painful irritation but NO PERMANENT DAMAGE to the tissues or sight. Flush the eye with large amounts of water. A drop of castor oil may be put in the eye. As with all eye first-aid, refer to a physician who will treat the eye with an ointment. Ordinary, infrequent exposure to askarel vapors will not cause any ill effects. However, prolonged exposure to strong vapors should be avoided. If hot fluid is to be handled in a closed or confined area, provide ordinary exhaust ventilation. Harmful concentrations of askarel vapors are easily delectable by Ihe smarting of the nose or eyes. Should hot askarel (above 100C.) have to be handled in the open in a confined, unventilated area it is advisable to wear organic canister-type masks as supplied by Mine Safety (' '''Mshurgh, I'a.

(AS FAR AS EQUIPMENT CAN BE I)
best friend!
Since "askarel" type transformers were first made in 1930, few pieces of electrical equipment have equalled these "juice controllers" in trouble-free service. The name "askarel" applies to the liquid insulation that fills askarel type transformers. And "askarel" is a general name for a unique kind of chemical classified as a halogenated hydrocarbon. But, don't let this chemical jargon bother you one bit. After you read this little pamphlet, you'll be an EXPERT on operating askarel transformers; you'll know all about this wonder ful liquid -- askarel insulation -- because it's all very simple.
Since many engineers and maintenance operators work with BOTH askarel and transformer "oils," you will want to remember that askarel is different from mineral oil . . . and you'll want to know the simple ways to "check up" on the health of your askarel transformer. That's the reason for this pamphlet. First, to tell you that your askarel transformer, in addition to being FIRESAFE, can be the most trouble-free piece of equipment you operate. Second, to give you the few simple facts that will make you an expert on the "whys" and "wherefores" of the easy maintenance. Knowing the facts given on the following pages, you will keep your askarel (and transformer) operating at trouble-free, top performance, year, after year, after year.*

SECTION A TRANSFORMER ASKAREL I. INTRODUCTION: This manual describes the operating characteristics of transformer askarel liquid insulation and how it differs from mineral oil. The information given is based on facts gathered by Monsanto over 30 years as producer of askarel, plus knowledge gained from the experience of transformer manufacturers and users. This guide is provided to outline the very simple mainte nance required for askarel fluid in "modern" transformers and to offer suggestions for the sealing and maintaining of askarel in old units. By following this guide, users will obtain maximum service from askarel insulation with a reasonable minimum of maintenance. If questions arise relating to the designing and building of transformers -- these should be referred to regular transformer suppliers. Monsanto gratefully acknowledges the assistance, guidance, and the contributions of certain data by the following: Frank M. Clark................................................

II. HISTORY OF TRADE NAME TYPES "Askarel" is the generic name for non-combusliblc (fire-resistant) liquid insulation. In this respect, the insulation is completely different from ordinary transformer mineral oils. Transformer askarel is marketed by Monsanto. Whatever the trade marked brand, the askarel contains Monsanto's Aroclor (chlorobiphenyl). . . one of the best liquid insulations developed by science. This inert compound is chemically stable, fire-resistant, heat stable, non-corrosive, and has high dielectric strength under the operating conditions encountered in transformers.
, REY 000923
i
WATER_PCB-SD0000064373
Askarcl liquid insulation is made by thinning Aroclor 1260 with trichlorobenzene or tri-, letrachlorobenzene mix. The first transformer askarel was made in 1932, in accordance with General Electric Company's patents, and was trademarked Pyranol 1488. Westinghouse, too, offered this askarel insulation in 1936 under then trademark Incrlcen.
In the mid-1940's, as shown in the following table, tin telraphenyl was added to General Electric's Pyranol to scavenge hydrogen chloride. Shortly thereafter, Westinghouse added phenoxy propene oxide to Inertecn for the same purpose. In 1963, General Electric replaced tin telraphenyl with a diepoxide scavenger. This new formula, which replaces previous Pyranols, is called Transformer Pyranol AI3B3B. Thus, today the two commercial types offormulations arc General Electric's Transformer Pyruno! A13B3B type and Westinghouse Inertecn PPO (7336-9) type

OTHER BRAND NAMES Various electrical equipment manufacturers use other trade-marked names for askarcl liquid insulation, such as Chlorcxtol (Allis-Chalmers); Nofiamol (Wagner Electric); Saf-T-Kuhl (Kuhlman Electric). These askarel insulating liquids are one or the other of the two standard formulations. Still other manufacturers, who designate their insulation only by its generic name, askarel. assign it a number or code. By this number, Monsanto knows whether to furnish Pyranol AI3B3B or Inertcen PPO (7336-9) type formulation to the user.

iv. INTERCHANGEABILITY AND STABILITY
A. Interchangeability: The two general types of askarel insulation shown in Table II can be either mixed or interchanged and there will be no difference in the operation of the transformer. However, askarel insulation must never he mixed with mineral oil. Over 2% mineral oil in askarel begins to lower its fire resistance. Further, materials of construction in the transformer that are compatible with askarel may not be compatible with oil and vice-versa. For example: a significant amount of askarel in a transformer built for mineral oil will attack gaskets, adhesives, core bindings, impregnating varnishes, etc.
B. Stability: . Askarel liquid insulation is highly pure, fire-proof liquid made under close
chemical control. It does not vary in composition like the commercial range of mineral oils. Askarel docs not deteriorate when exposed to air, heat, hot metal; it does not break down over long use to form conducting or corrosive chemicals; it does not oxidize or sludge, Askarel will remain perfectly stable year after year unless broken down by exposure to severe arcing. The only real "enemy" of askarel is contamination by water. Keeping askarel water-free will insure long-time service. Askarel is heavier than water. If water gets into askarel insulation, only a liny amount (125 ppm) dissolves -- the rest floats on top.
V. DIRECTIONS FOR HANDLING
A. Keep Dry: In handling, storing, sampling, inspecting askarel -- and in operating askarel transformers -- take every precaution to guard the askarel insulation from exposure to high humidity and moisture contamination. Keep 5, 30, or 55 gallon drums of askarel dry; lay stored drums on their sides with the bung at (he highest point from floor to keep water off the drum head (which can be sucked into the askarel by the drum "breathing"). This precaution is not necessary when drums are stored indoors, which is the preferred way of storing.
B. Use Ordinary Personal Precautions: Transformer askarel has been made, handled, and used for over 30 years without causing toxic or other ill effects. It can be handled with only minor precautions. If accidentally spilled on hands, no serious skin irritation will occur. However, liquid askarel has a solvent action (similar to paint thinner) on the fats and oils of the skin and prolonged contact may lead to drying and chapping of the skin.
f
` REY 000926
WATER_PCB-SD0000064376
In case of contact, wash olT the skin with soap and water; remove and dry clean saturated clothing. Clean up spills with rags, sawdust or absorbent clay. Eye contact may result in painful irritation but no permanent damage to tissues. If askarel gets in the eyes, flush with large amounts of water. As with all eye first-aid, refer to a physician. To relieve irritation, physicians have used a '1% Pontocaine as well as opthalmic cortisone acetate solution, or castor oil. Infrequent exposure to askarel vapors will not cause ill effects. However, prolonged exposure to high vapor concentrations should be avoided. If hot askarel must be handled in a closed or confined area, provide the area with ordinary exhaust ventilation -- or -- wear an organic cartridge respirator approved by the U. S, Bureau of Mines.
VI. EXPECTED SERVICE LIFE
Properly designed and installed askarel transformers will give trouble-free service for a minimum of 30 years. Since their introduction in 1932, the manufacturers report finding the over-all failure rate to be less than 0.5% for all units under test and service conditions. The Edison Electric Institute's report (1956-1958) on their member utilities publishes the failure rate for askarel transformers as 0.13 per hundred banks per year. Even the rare reports of failure are invariably found to be due to improper sealing that allows moisture to enter.
VII. DIELECTRIC STRENGTH - MOISTURE RELATIONSHIP
The dielectric strength of askarel is highly sensitive to excess moisture; not sensitive to ordinary dissolved contaminants. While the dielectric strength can also be lowered by severe arcing, askarel turns noticeably black or has particles of sooty carbon floating in it if arcing has occurred. Then the transformer should be repaired and the askarel replaced. New askarel has a minimum dielectric strength of 35 K.V at 25; a maximum mois ture content of 30 ppm. If the dielectric strength is checked periodically and decreases significantly -- this indicates moisture pick-up, arcing, or both. When the dielectric strength has dropped to 26 KV or less, an analysis for water is necessary. If water is found in excess of 100 ppm at 25 C., its source should be located and corrections made. When the moisture content approaches 125 ppm (saturation level), the dielectric strength of askarel drops below the value required for efficient insulating. The moisture content should not be allowed to rise over 70 ppm; it should be held as near as possible to 30 ppm. Maintaining a low moisture level will assure high dielectric strength and top operating efficiency. Table 111 shows the relationship of dielectric strength vs. moisture and Table IV indicates the approximate water solubility limits in askarel and mineral oil.

TURBIDITY
. . . may be the visual sign of undissolved water, or may indicate contamination from core materials, dirt, or deteriorating construction materials. Cloudiness may also result from cold precipitation of tin letraphenyl "scavenger'' that was used in the earlier Pyranols. This scavenger begins to come out of solution around I5F. above zero. To redissolve it requires heating to 150 - 200F. and agitation.
High dielectric strength will quickly indicate that any turbidity present is not moisture; that the insulating efficiency of the askarel is still excellent. However, if the dielectric strength is below 26 KV, moisture should be determined, using the Karl Fischer method (ASTM D1533-60).
The dielectric strength test for askarel serves primarily as an indicator for moisture. It is by far the most important maintenance test for transformer askarel.
VIII. TYPICAL VALUES FOUND IN ASKAREL FLUID UNDER VARIOUS USE CONDITIONS
Table V gives the entire spectrum of properties that are typical for freshly-made transformer askarel as it goes through the various normal and abnormal conditions of use.
The data in Table V are in terms of only the askarel fluid and do not refer to insulation resistance or power factor measurements on the over-all transformer insulation.
Several utilities studying the power factor values of the over-all transformer insulation system indicate that the unit power factor of a new askarel transformer should range from 1% to not over 5%. This would generally correspond -with the askarel fluid properties as given under heading "B".

WATER PCB-SD0000064379
Starling ideally wtlh situation "B", it is normal to expect the power factor of the fluid in a satisfactorily operating askarel transformer to increase as shown under heading "C"'. The "over-aH" power factor of ihe transformer in normal service is expected to rise, but preferably not much beyond 5%. In this normal situation, the moisture level of the askarel fluid and its dielectric strength will be satisfactory, as shown in heading "C". Occasionally the power factor of a non-arced, satisfactorily-operating askarel transformer is found to be relatively high, i.e., 15%. In this case, the power factor of the askarel fluid will also be high, perhaps as high as 50% at 20C. and 60 cycles. It is not good practice merely to note that high power factor of the askarel fluid is to be expected. The important step is to check dielectric strength and note whether there has been a downward trend. A downward trend in dielectric strength very likely indicates moisture entrance and should be confirmed by a Karl Fischer test for water. The importance of any abnormalities in dielectric strength and moisture content of the askarel fluid cannot be overemphasized! Where abnormal values for the dielec tric strength or moisture content occur, the power factor of the transformer can be expected to be abnormally high; the expected high power factor of the askarel fluid will induce this. The indication that a high power factor on the transformer and on the fluid is due to contamination can be verified by earth refining the askarel fluid and noting whether after refining the test results correspond with heading Assuming no mechanical defect or arcing, if the power factor of a new askarel transformer is relatively high, the power factor of the fluid will also be high, giving the situation under heading "D". This reflects contamination that should have been removed by the manufacturer of the transformer. In absence of mechanical defect, where there are no abnormal losses in dielectric strength, and no moisture pick-up in non-arced askarel -- the use history shows that a relatively high power factor for the askarel fluid (as compared with mineral oil) is to be expected. Normally, high power factor is due to contamination and not deterioration of the askarel operation. As shown by F. M. Clark in his book, "Insulating Materials For Design and Engineering Practice," John Wiley & Sons, N. Y., 1962 -- activated alumina can be used in the circulating system to bring the power factor down and keep it as low as possible.

IX. CHECK POINTS FOR MAINTAINING ASKAREL INSULATION
A. General Considerations:
Modern askarel transformers with welded construction or silicone gaskets for hand hole-cover, switch and terminal compartment covers, with properly constructed bushings require little or no maintenance. With properly con structed transformers, annual or semi-annual visual inspection and dielectric strength test of the askarel fluid should suffice for routine maintenance checking over many years of service.
However, many askarel units were installed in the early 1930's -- before the
development of some of the better modern gasketing materials and before
improved designs were developed for sealing out moisture. Such early units
should be, and can be, modernized. Leaky or deteriorated gaskets should be
replaced. If the askarel has become contaminated, it should be reconditioned.
At the same time, a general clean-up of (he unit and possible refinishing may
. be desirable.
'
If it is not convenient to take an old transformer out of service for general repairs, leaky gaskets can be sealed temporarily by painting over the leaky area with epoxy cement.
A survey of users indicates a good number of early-built askarel transformers (over 20 years old) are kept in continuous service in critical installations by the following steps (instead of modernization).
The operating units are equipped with compound pressure gauges for reading pressure above and below atmospheric. Positive pressure is maintained on the shell by introducing nitrogen at 2 to 3 pounds above atomspheric. Regular workmen in the area daily record the temperature and pressure. If a sudend pressure drop is noted more nitrogen is introduced and the gaskets are checked for leaks with soap solution. Leaks are sealed by applying epoxy cement.
B. Modern Seating Procedures:
Transformer purchasers should specify the following modern techniques for sealing:
1. Welding Construction: Covers, radiator connections, switch and terminal housings, instrument connections, etc. should be welded.
2. Bushing Connections: The most satisfactory bushings arc the type with rolled-on flanges and two ring seals rolled into a depression in (he porcelain -- sealed with silicone rubber rings held under compression. Metal-lo-glass or melal-lo-porcelain sealed bushings are also satisfactory.
If for any reason the above type bushings cannot be used then use a por celain or glass bushing with a silicone or Viton gasket retained in a groove. The gasket can be either rectangular or circular cross section, usually V* inch thick.
3. Small Size Connections: When not possible to weld, small size connection seals should be made with Flexitallic stainless steel rings. The surfaces must be machined and parallel. The filler between the steel laminations of the Flexitallic ring should be either silicone or Viton.
' REY 000931 9
WATER_PCB-SD0000064381
4. Gaskets For Hand-Hole Covers: Modern design specifies silicone gaskets. Such gaskets must be retained in a groove. The groove preferably is machined into the flange or cover. However, it can also be formed by welding concentric .steel strips to the flange or the cover.
Generali/(he gaskets should be 5/lfi to Vi inch thick for covers, depending on the depth of the groove. A rectangular section is usually used.
The silicone material should be Dow-Corning No. 50 Silastic or equivalent. This is a low compicssion set material. For best sealing 20 to 25r). compres sion is recommended, with ample clearance in the groove to allow for this compression.
No cement is required. With reasonable care the gasket is removable without damage and is reusable.
Silastic 50 is slightly swelled by askarel which contribules to the tightness of the seal. It is not deteriorated by askarel fluid or vapors. It resists weather ing and it is thermally stable and flexible at all operating temperatures. It is an excellent moisture barrier.
Notes: a. Dow-Corning, Midland, Michigan will supply a list of Silastic 50 gasket fabricators to all transformer manufacturers or users. They will also furnish technical data.
b. Any user of Pyranol transformers, made by General Electric Company at Rome, Ga., will receive prompt and generous help for converting to the modern silicone or Vilon gaskets by contacting the Gcneial Electric Company's Service Engineering Department at Rome, Ga.
Sec Appendix K: Seals, Properties and Procurements.
C. The Older Scaling Arrangements:
'! he older type gaskets consist of cither cork or cork-nil rile rubber combinations or straight nitrile rubber.
1. Cork-Nitrile Combinations: Covers for the main lank, hand-holes, switch and terminal chambers, relief diaphrams etc. are held in place by sluds welded to the flange or by bolts. The gaskets are cut with openings and placed over the bolts. Often Shellac (Westinghouse Style No. 1150419, or General Electric Company's Glyptal 1276) is used to cement the cork to the flanges.
The following is recommended for sealing with the cork -- nitrile rubber combination:
Use Armstrong NC-757 cork-nitrile material or equivalent. The gasket can be CUt from a single sheet or by scarfing strips of the material. A convenient method for joining strips is to make a Keystone Type joint. For this, Westinghouse, Sharon, Pa., olTcrs their gasket cutler Style No. 328 B6I4 G0I, (about $15).
The joints should be cemented and the gasket also cemented to the flange, using one of the above cements. Excess cement should nol be allowed to reach the interior of the transformer.
' REV 000932
to
i
WATER_PCB-SD0000064382
After installation and bolting, the outside edge of the gasket should be coated thoroughly with epoxy cement to increase weather resistance.
This epoxy cement is a paste to which a curing catalyst is added immediately before use. Typical are;
a. Epoxy Patch Kit tfl-C Hysol Corporation, Olean, N. Y.
b. Scotchcast Resin #4 Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Co. St. Paul, Minnesota
c. Adhesive A-l and Activator Type B Armstrong Products Company Argonne Rd., Warsaw, Ind.
d. Adhesive 9860-1, Synthetics Organic Company, Cleveland, Ohio, used with activator diethylene triamine (Carbide and Carbon Chem, Co.)
2, Straight Nitrile Rubber: When straight nitrile rubber was originally used, invariably the gasket was recessed in a groove. This was to prevent gasket flow and to protect the material against excessive compression. Although this type seal was nut cemented, the nitrile rubber gasket is not reuseable.
Since grooves or slops have already been provided for the nitrile rubber seal, Silastic 50 can be easily substituted and is recommended. This conforms with modern practice.
X. PERIODIC FLUID INSPECTION AND WHAT CHECKPOINTS MEAN
On a regular schedule -- at six, nine, or twelve month intervals -- make a simple visual inspection of your askarel insulation and run a dielectric strength check.
A. Visual Inspection:
Askarel is a clear, faint-yellow liquid. After long-term use this color may gradually intensify to light brown. The fluid should remain clear and free from turbidity or cloudiness. Any color change -- such as to a green, red or blue cast -- indicates extraction of impurities from the solid insulation. If a distinct foreign color pick-up is noted, check the complete range of electrical characteristics and notify the transformer maker. The electrical characteristics may be found to be unim paired. Color change alone (except for black) is not a danger signal since the contamination is not likely to impair the dielectric strength.
B. Dielectric Strength:
If the dielectric strength has decreased significantly from the last inspection, or if it has gradually decreased below 26 KV range (at 25C.) -- RUN A CHECK FOR MOISTURE. Use ASTM D901, D877 (Karl Fischer Method).
The dielectric strength of askarel is the major indicator to the operating efficiency of your liquid insulation and of the askarel transformer itself. Besides the "visual" inspection tests, dielectric strength is the only test necessary to run on a routine basis. Well-sealed askarel transformers have service records of 25 to 30 years on the original askarel. New askarel has a minimum dielectric strength of 35 KV at 35C., a maximum moisture content of 30 ppm.

WATER_PCB-SD0000064383
XI. INSPECTION CHECK LIST 1. If askarel is clear, even though darkened to light brown; has no sediment or turbidity; has dielectric strength over 26 KV ...give it the inspection "OK". 2. if askarel is clear; has foreign color of blue, green, red . . . it is "extracting color" from internal materials. This is not.of itself, an operating hazard when the dielectric strength stays over 26 KV and moisture remains low. However, this rare occur rence calls for checking into condition of the interior construction and consulting the transformer maker. 3. If askarel is clear; but dielectric strength drops to 22 or lower KV, and moisture rises over 80 ppm ... the askarel is ready for simple "refining". If the moisture is near the saturation level (about 125 ppm), a thorough inspection should be made for water droplets in the transformer tank, and even for "globules" or water floating on the askarel surface. If found, the transformer manufacturer should be consulted for reconditioning both the transformer and the fluid. 4. I f ask a re) is dark brown to black; if black particles of carbon are seen; and dielectric strength is low ... the askarel has been broken down by arcing. It cannot be refined and should be discarded. If any of these four simple inspection tests appear out of the ordinary, or the relationship between appearance and test values is abnormal -- contact your transformer supplier for a complete analysis. Whenever a sample is to be shipped to Monsanto, please follow the directions shown under: "SAMPLING ASKAREL".
XII. CONTAMINATION IN TRANSFORMERS Unlike mineral oil which can oxidize, sludge and deteriorate -- askarel breaks down in transformer use nnly when strongly arced. Thus, while askarel does not decompose in normal use -- it can be contaminated more readily than the relatively non-polar mineral oil. For example the following Table VI shows how a small amount of synthetic rubber or a bit of varnished cloth markedly increases the power factor of the askarel. Please note, however, that such minor contamination has ho adverse effect on the dielectric strength. As explained, moisture entrance through faulty seals seems the only contaminant in normal use that lowers the dielectric strength of transformer askarel.

Similarly, trace contaminants from commonly used construction materials can lower the volume - resistivity of askarel, without affecting its dielectric strength. Table VII shows this.

While trace contamination easily lowers volume resistivity from high levels, it is important as previously noted in Table V Case F, that heavy contamination (as when arced) does not lower the resistivity below the order of 10' ohm-cm. at 100C.
The different behavior of askarel vs. mineral oil in these respects can be summarized as follows:
High power factor and low volume resistivity in transformer mineral oils are commonly regarded as "danger signals" that the oil has deteriorated and broken down chemically.
This is NOT TRUE of askarel liquid insulation, unless the dielectric strength is low.

XIII. REFINING ASKAREL FOR RE-USE
A. Filtering Through Dry Blotter Paper to Remove Moisture and Extraneous Partciles:
Most operators prefer portable refining apparatus, such as a plate press fitted with a dofiy, (available from Sparkler, Mundelein, 111., Weslinghouse Main tenance and Repair Dept., Chicago, or General Electric Co., Pittsfield, Mass.); or the earthen cartridge filter type, (available from Industrial Filter Corp., Lebanon, Ind.). Filter paper liners for the plate press are available from Carl Schleicher and Schuell Company, Keane, New Hampshire and manufacturers of filter presses listed above.
The filter paper must be dried immediately before use. For best results, spread the paper for maximum surface exposure in a hot air circulating oven and heat it for 4 to 6 hours at I I0C.
If possible do not take the transformer out of service until ready to filter the fluid. This will keep the transformer coils relatively hot and dry. Processing the fluid should start immediately after de-energizing the unit.
Circulate the askarel hot (but not over 55-60C.) through the filler fitted with . the dry paper liners.
After filtration the dielectric strength of the askarel should be 35 KV minimum.
1. Precautions: Filtering should not be done when the relative humidity exceeds 75%.
Any flexible hoses and gaskets on the refining equipment should be lined with or made of materials that will not be softened by contact with askarel fluid. (Silicone or Teflon-lined, or flexible metal materials are suitable.)

B. Earth Treatment for Maximum Improvement of Power Factor and VolumeResistivity:
1. Procedure:
(The askare) liquid should be relatively dry prior to the following earth filtration.)
Use finely divided Atlapulgus clay or Fuller's earth (dried and activated by healing for 12 hours at 300-350F. immediately prior to use) as a coating on the filter paper surface. The amount of earth used should be 0.1 to 0.2 per cent by weight on the weight of the askarel to be treated. (Askarel weighs about 13 pounds per gallon).
To deposit the earth evenly, stir one-third of the earth with a small portion of askarel in a clean container. Pump the mixture through the filter and follow with two more one-third portions. Then circulate askarel taken from near the top of the transformer, pass it hot (not over 55-60C.) through the earth coated filter and feed back through the bottom transformer outlet. Continue circulation until the fluid is clear and test shows that the electrical properties are fully restored.
2. Effect of Earth on Removal of Scavengers:
Only slight and insignificant loss (by selective absorption) of lintetraphenyl and epoxides occurs when askarel is refined by treatment with 0.1 to 0.2 per cent by weight of earth. To remove significant amounts of the scavengers requires repetitious treatment with much larger amounts of earth.

If it is desired (although these factors are not generally considered important for askarel transformers), to keep the power factor as low as possible and the resistivity as high as possible, hang a container of anhydrous alumina or activated clay in the circulating system of the transformer.
XIV. CLEANING ARCED TRANSFORMERS If a unit has arced so that the askarel is no longer fit for use, a thorough cleaning of the unit is necessary before refilling with new askarel insulation and returning it to service*. Follow this procedure:
' REY 000937
15
WATER_PCB-SD0000064387
A. Drain out all dark, carbon-contaminated askarel. (Discard by dumping or burying where it will not contaminate a water supply.)
B. Carefully brush carbon deposits from internal parts and insulation, using a soft bristle brush making sure that insulation is not damaged.
C. Flush thoroughly using new askarel (not an oil, nor a cleaning solvent). D. Flush a second time with fresh askarel; drain; then fill to the proper level with
new askarel. E. Energize transformer to warm the fluid for 24 to 48 hours; then circulate the
askarel through a filler, returning it to the unit filtered and ready for use. This assumes that the cause of arcing has been established and corrections made.
When severe arcing occurs, major repairs are usually necessary and the unit rebuilt. This procedure can be applied for flushing out repaired units.

WATER_PCB-SD0000064388
XV. SAMPLING ASKAREL Take a sample as close lo the top of the liquid surface as possible. (Many large askarel transformers have a built-in sampling tube near the surface for convenient sampling). Then, fo make sure that your SAMPLE truly represents your askarel insulation, take another sample from the bottom. If additional sampling tube connections are contrived on the valves for easier sampling, make the tubes of clean glass, stainless steel, aluminum or tin for rigid types; and silicone or Teflon tubing for flexible types. Use NEW containers for the askarel sample. A new and thoroughly pre-dried smallmouth quart glass bottle fitted with a Bakelite screw cap fitted with an aluminum or tin bottle cap liner is recommended for "quick on-the-site testing." (If complete analysis is to be made, a 5-pint size sample is required). Be sure that the new bottle does not stand open to collect dust or moisture. Rinse the sample bottle and cap lining two or three times with askarel from the transformer; then fill it. If the sample will be tested promptly, a clear glass bottle can be used. If sample is to be stored indefinitely, use an amber glass bottle or wrap clear glass with aluminum foil. A. Select a dry day. Do not sample insulation on a warm, moist day when humidity exceeds 75%, and . . . B. Make sure that the askarel is at least as warm as the surrounding air. (Cold liquids can condense moisture from humid air.) C. When sampling askarel from transformers, it is best to take the sample when the unit is warm and operating at average or maximum load. Especially as a check on moisture (as reflected by a dielectric strength test), sampling the warm askarel more truly represents its condition during operation. Experience shows that water will migrate from a transformer's solid insulation lo the askarel liquid and vice versa, depending on temperature. Therefore, when the transformer is hot, the moisture is most likely to be found in the liquid This accounts largely for periodic variations in dielectric strength. For example; a relatively high dielectric strength may be found during winter months and a relatively low dielectric strength during the summer months on samples taken from the same unit.

SECTION B
askarel filled switches and terminal chambers
I. INTRODUCTION: High voltage leads are usually connected to askarel or mineral oil-filled network transformers and power centers through terminal chambers and switches. In some cases terminal chambers are not used, and the high voltage leads are connected directly to the switch terminals. They may be filled with either askarel or mineral oil. Switches are usually rotary or drum type fitted with a revolving block and porcelain unit as the principal element arranged for three-phase service. (A cutaway view of a typical terminal chamber-switch combination is shown for reference.)
Askarel transformers with attached switches have been in use for about 30 years. When they were first introduced, the availability of insulating and gasketing materials wits rather limited and even the best materials at the time had no service history. As a result, inadequate gasketing materials such as cork, nitrile rubber, and nitrile rubbcr-and-cork particles were used. While satisfactory for a limited period of lime, these materials cannot be depended on for the expected long life of the equipment. The terminal chamber is usually above or below the switch compartment and separated by a steel wall through which the bushings are inserted. When bushings are properly selected and correctly installed, there is no leakage from one compart ment Jo the other, With poor bushing seals, and the terminal chamber above the switch, potting compounds or cable oil can seep into the askarel. When the terminal chamber is below the switch, askarel can drain into the terminal chamber.11
11. SOURCES OF CONTAMINATION There are three possible sources of contamination for askarel in switches and terminal chambers; they rank in this order of frequency: (I) water entering through poor gaskets; (2) decomposition products from arcing when switch is used to break magnetizing current; (3) entrance of pothead or cable compounds through leaky bushing seals. Unlike an askarel transformer where the amount of contaminant is likely to be very small (probably only trace amounts) in relation to the volume of askarel fluid -- in switches or terminal chambers with faulty seals, the amount of contamination can be relatively large. t RY 000940
WATER_PCB-SD0000064390
Experience has shown that, based on the number of installed askarcl-switch units, the percentage of failures is extremely small. When investigated, it has been found that most failures originate in the switch chamber. Water is the chief source of contamination. However, heavy contamination of askarel with petrolatum and asphalt'matcrial, due to leakage, have caused a few failures. Petrolatum is used frequently for filling terminal chambers. When either cable oil or petrolatum seeps into askarel, no great harm results. The fire resistance will be somewhat decreased and power factor of the askarel will increase with an accom panying drop in resistivity. While highly undesirable, it is doubtful that failure of the unit results. Where asphaltic compounds are used in place of petrolatum, the danger is increased somewhat because asphaltic contamination may cause exces sively high dielectric losses in the askarel. When the terminal chamber is below the switch chamber, the potting compound can be contaminated by askarel if the bushing seals are leaky. This is undesirable because (he askarel will increase the power factor and conductivity of the potting compound or cable oil and develop heat from dielectric loss. If this mixture is drawn into the cable insulation, a cable failure is likely. This again emphasizes the impor tance of light bushing assemblies.
III. SEALING SWITCHES AND TERMINAL CHAMBERS Proper bushing construction, use of Silastic seals and welding wherever possible is highly desirable (as covered in Section A). Where an elastomeric seal is to be used in contact with both askarel and petroleum oil, DuPont's Vilon is suggested. For new equipment the user should specify these modern sealing arrangements to keep out contaminants and minimize maintenance.
IV. MAINTENANCE FOR ASKAREL FILLED SWITCHES A. Switches used for grounding after power source has been de-energized will not undergo arcing. B. Switches interrupting magnetizing current will be subject to arcing; the amount of decomposition will depend on power interrupted, time and frequency of oper ation. As a general rule, the liquid should be checked after 5 to 10 operations.
REY 000941
WATER PCB-SD0000064391
1. On newly installed switches, check the askarel at 3, 6 and 12 month intervals; if found satisfactory, check once annually thereafter. With proper attention to the gasketing of covers and bushings, experience will probably indicate that less frequent inspection is warranted.
2. Check askarel for: a. Dielectric strength (ASTM D877): It should be 26 KV minimum. If dielectric strength is low, confirm presence of water by Karl Fischer method ASTM D-1533. Filler to remove moisture. Dielectric strengtn should then be 30 KV minimum. b. Presence of carbon from arcing: Fluid should be relatively free of carbon. If badly arced and very black, replace fluid. If only minute amounts of carbon are present, filtration is recommended. Check power factor of liquid (should not be over 5% at 25C. and 60 cycles). Flush out switch chamber with several gallons of fresh askarel before refilling.
3. If there is discoloration, high power factor, detectable change in specific gravity or refractive index, or if fluid flashes below 250F., there is a possibility of seepage of potting compound into the switch compartment. In this case, correct any leaky bushing seals with proper replacements and fill with new askarel.
4. If terminal chamber is below switch, check polling compound for presence of askarel (can usually be detected by odor or by an increase in specific gravity). If askarel is present, correct any leaky bushing seals with proper replacements, and renew compounds.
5. Cxaminc cover gaskets visually. Deterioration can be detected by swelling and cracking of the exposed edge. In cases of severe deterioration, liquid seepage is usually present.
6. Check for leakage at packing gland of switching shaft. If leaking, repack with a Silastic ring type gasket.

APPENDIX A -- Askarel Stability and Composition of Arc Formed Gas:
Askarel insulation is one of the most inert, chemically-stable heat resistant, non corrosive liquids known. It will not break down, oxidize or sludge when exposed to air and high temperatures, 150C, or even somewhat higher. Arcing, however, will break down the compound to liberate some hydrogen chloride and small amounts of carbon.

APPENDIX J
Firc-Resistance
To use the generic name "askarel," the fluids must be approved by the Underwriters' Laboratories as possessing adequate fire-resistance and freedom from forming explosive gases when arced. These liquids do not have a burn point (ASTM D92-33) (Cleveland open cup method) up to about 205C., at which temperatures they begin to boil. The significance of this is that (hey do not burn or support combustion under conditions encountered in transformer operation. Thus the danger of secondary explosion (or fire) is eliminated.

Dear Sirt
Recently several newspaper and magazine articles have been published indicating that Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBa) have been discovered at some points in some marine, aquatic and wildlife environments. The quantities detected are said to be in the parts per million and parts per billion categories.
It is claimed that the PCBs found strongly resemble chlorinated biphenyls containing- 54% and 60% chlorine by weight. Products which are sold by Monsanto under the trade names of Aroclor 1254 and 1260 do contain chlorinated biphenyls. In addition to Aroclor 1254 and 1260, Monsanto sells certain functional fluids containing Aroclor 1254. These include Pydraul 625, Pydraul AC, Pydraul AC - Winter Grade, Pydraul 540, Therminol FR-3 and certain dielectric formulations. Several other companies around the world also produce products containing chlorinated biphenyls.
As your supplier of Aroclor 1254 and 1260 and formulated products containing 1254, we wish to alert you to the potential problem of environmental contamination as referred to in the newspaper and magazine articles.
We would like to point out the following additional facts.
1. Products such as Pydraul 90, 135, 230, 312, A-200, F-9, 150 and 60, Turbinol 153 and Therminol FR-1 and FR-2 are not formulated with Aroclor 1254 or 1260.
2. PCBs with a chlorine content of less than 54% have not . been found in the environment and appear to present no potential problem to the environment.

We have developed, and are now testing, new formulations to replace the Aroclor 1254 and 1260 components in our Pydraul products. The new products appear to be equal in performance and to have similar physical properties.
We feel that all possible care should be taken in the applica tion, processing and effluent disposal of these products to prevent them becoming environmental contaminants. Of interest to you may be an article in Chemical Week, October 29, 1969 regarding water pollution standards set by each state in the Union. It is attached. This article reflects that good menufacturing practice in the future may require that no products used by any company should find their way into waterways. .*

During our April 3rd meeting, the subject of modifying the labels on Aroolor packages was reviewed and Phoolan Park offered to work on the appropriate wording He suggests the following paragraph be added to the existing wordings
"lftis product contains polychlorinated biphenyls, which some studies have shown may be an environmental contaminant Care should be taken to prevent any loss into the environment through spills, leakage, disposal, evaporation or otherwise." This additional wording is intended for packages containing Aroclors 1242, 1246, 1254, 12o0, ,1262, 1268, 4465 and Montars 1, 2, 3, 4 and 7 ' Attached is a copy of a typical label. The proposed wording would appear in the space below the present printing. We. are anxious to make this change quickly. May X have your comments?
