Bobal ! Bobal | wk of 8-13 c) Work with Obrin to determine best communication system Comments: Obrin's initial reaction is that no method is fool proof and best is to have several methods available. d) Experiment with refrigeration operator carrying a radio Steininger 1) Obtain radio Borrow? Buy? " e) Repair all radios and obtain a few backup units (11) Coordinate incinerator plans a) Determine who will operate incinerator Obrin Rider Helmick Comments: Decided that boilerhouse will operate unless a steam emergency exists - then lab operators will serve as back up b) Obtain vendor information on incinerator c) Set up testing on incinerator stack d) Define options for operation of surge tank 1 Clayson Rider by Oct. 1 wk of 7-30 X e) Coordinate decision making on operation of surge tank f) Follow up with EPA to broaden incinerator use to over pressure usage jw - ;yYi iTi'ii ^ 1 1 Page 7i Dept, j GW ! PS GW s M ' Proiect-Reguirement Priority (12) Take sample bombs for lab analysis during times of upset on VGA Comments: The GC is not always accurate after an upset; i.e., it takes time to purge the line and get meaningful readings again. They are set up to do this and most operators know that they should 1) write letter to all operators to take samples 1 (13) Determine MCI Balance in VGA a) Obtain 14 sample bombs b) locate explosion proof hood to use c) determine testing procedure d) prepare schematic of experiment e) sample f) compile and present data Comments: The amount of sampling necessary will be determined by the preliminary results. He will begin with 14 sample points. (14) Complete VGA Revisions Comments: The following list of items was presented as recommendations by R. Samelson and J. Steininger. a) Obtain GPO to cover all of the following items ' 0 b) Revise system to run with the lean solvent tank bypasses 1) Need instrumentation to keep lean and rich oil tank balanced. 2) Existing pumps need to be repiped so that #2 pump can be isolated and so fresh isooctane can be added directly to rich oil tank. 3) Need a drain pump on the lean oil tank so that lean oil can be pumped directly into the rich tank without leaving a hec.1 in the tank 2 Responsible Samelson Time Goal Chrisp by 9-1 Samelson Steininger Clayson Complete 17413 WVWAuMWW'gfc.

Update and improve high pressure recovery system Comments: One meeting has been hold to discuss exactly what is needed to bo done. Minutes have been written and will be circulated for comments. The "specifics" of this project will be included in the next project list. However, it should be noted that this is a major project and will require a great deal of time from both Engineering and Geon West Tech men.
