II. Activity
A. Conversion Team new oontaots this week at 13.
B Thermlnol FR conversions continue Blow. We have
drum stock In the regional warehouses. The 200.000 A*4. o*
new T-55 for late May will now be available in eariy;`MniaI V\ ,
As a result, bulk T-55 supply Is orltlcally short bus >no^
-
delays In customer delivery to date. Still look Totjf big ' \ ,f
June and July.
C. The conversion team continues to encounter customers who, have 1W>V connected the PCB or Thermlnol FR environmental probf^ wlWTS'# Aroclors. Latest two cases being Udyllte (4 x 100 gallons - ' Aroclor systems) and Parker (500 gallons aroclor system). '
In the Parker case, they had ordered Thermlnol FR for a new system, but returned unused - and still did not realize the
PCB relationship with their Aroclor system. None of the three Monsanto alert letters mention Aroclor (12-15-71
Thermlnol FR termlnlatlon letter, Maroh 6, 1972 survey letter
or the April 1972 WBP letter). As far as the PCB heat transfer Issue Is concerned, this project has not made a specific attempt
to notify or convert customers using Aroclor In heat transfer systems.
D. Mr. F. M. Calkins completes hls project assignment on May 12, 1972.
