East at t Middletown, Ohio JOB NO. subject : Daily Progress Report No. 19 Page 2 2. We expect to be able to present our design of the Hot Strip Mill to the cosmittee upon their return from Japan about April 20. 3. At a meeting with the Armco Pollution Control Coamittee, we were given guide lines to use in masterplanning the new facilities. Basically, Armco is of the opinion that every reasonable precaution should be taken to avoid contamination of the atmosphere and streams. It was stated that the existing facilities would have to be equipped with dust collectors, precipitators, acid waste removal equipment, etc., in the near future or else like 0. H. Shop Mo. 1, be abandoned. Specific limits were not and will aot be established except in a general way. However, by working very closely with the Armco pollution experts, we will be able to recommend the installation of equipment that will satisfy the state and federal agencies involved. Armco will obtain all approvals from such agencies. 5 DAD/jh
