CHEMICAL MANUFACTURERS ASSOCIATION FEB2RSSEIVED Route3 1989 January 30, 1989 Copy: TO EXECUTIVE CONTACTS OF CMA MEMBER COMPANIES The purpose of this letter is to urge the attendance of your senior (environmental, health, safety and legal managers at a March 1, 1989, briefing on a proposed major new CMA program concerning Title III, Section 313 releases. The proposed program encourages CMA member companies to increase their efforts to reduce releases to the environment and to increase the understanding of health effects from these releases. Public policy debates on Section 313 release inventories are anticipated, to gain momentum.when EPA releases its computerized inventory later this year. This new program will position the industry in a positive light for any follow up debates. The proposal is the product of an intensive six month process involving health, safety, environmental, government relations, legal, and communi cations experts from the member companies, with careful oversight by the Executive Committee and Board of Directors. The proposed voluntary policy and programs, built upon CMA's existing air quality policy and waste minimization program, are crafted to respond to immediate public concerns focused on the Section 313 release reports and to demonstrate indust leadership. To assist you in preparing for the briefing, I am attac! copy of the proposal. Please treat these materials as confidential. CMA's Environmental Management Committee will evaluate comments and i_____ revisions over the next two months and make a final presentation to the Board of Directors in April. The March 1 briefing is designed for senior environmental, health and safety, and legal managers, to review the proposed.:policy and program, discuss the relationship to other CMA initiatives, its implementation, communication strategy, impact on local operations, and to provide opportunities for attendees to ask questions, i tentative agenda is enclosed.

This central reference aysten on nonitorad data can be supplemented with a CMA regional dispersion nodal and a CMA regional ssapling protocol.

In particular, has beenvsry useful to industry and the State in evaluating air quality, the offsets of various omission sources and controls, and the significance of Monitor placement. In 1967, the HRM's focus was expanded to include collecting anbient air concentration data for about 170 specific chemicals, including nany SARA Section 313 chemicals of concern. Samples are obtained for a 24-hour period every sixth day at six existing, monitoring stations covering about 900 square miles. This monitoring is intended to assess long-term community exposure to theae substances in outdoor air. During each sampling period, a 15-liter canister is filled at a rate of 6 cc/min, and then the canister is transferred to the Radian Corporation for analysis. Extensive QA/QC procedures are employed. Meteorological conditions are recorded for each site to support assessments of the data. The cost of this targeted monitoring is approximately $60,000-100,000/atation/year. The monitoring stations are operated by Radian Corporation, and the entire HRM effort is supported by member-colony contributions of about $50-$60 per manufacturing employee. In early 1966, several companies in the Baton Rouge, LA, area initiated an effort to better understand the ambient air quality in the Baton VVV 000005469 CONFIDENTIAL loos* itm and the {fet of taiiiioos on air quality.

The application of any nhehod to specific chemicals will often require the development of additional data on that substance to form e eeieatific decision. Option 6: Fund an Independent Organisation.

Option 7: Industry Could Develop and Apply e Methodology for Jfelugg. An industry group could develop e method for eetting community exposure values* This method and data on specific chemicals could then be turned over to standard setting organisation such as AIHAr ACGIH, ASTM, or KPA. twwion ind Apply a Methodology for Settinx Community Exposure Values.

(jjHc CHEMICAL MANUFACTURERS ASSOCIATION January 30, 1969 TO EXECUTIVE CONTACTS OF CMA MEMBER COMPANIES Dear Executive Contact: Subject: Member Company Comments on Proposed CMA Chemical Release Reduction Policy and Program -- March 1. 1989 Briefing The purpose of this letter is to urge the attendance of your senior environmental, health, safety and legal managers at a March 1, 1989, briefing on a proposed major new CMA program concerning Title III, Section 313 releases. The proposed program encourages CMA member companies to increase their efforts to reduce releases to the environment and to increase the understanding of health effects from thea*Krtelease&r Public policy debates on Section 313 release inventories are'anticipated to- gain omentum when EPA releases its comptiterized inventory later this 'year. This new program will position the industry in a positive light for any follow up debates. The proposal is the product of an intensive six month process involving health, safety, environmental, government relations, legal, and communi cations experts from the member companies, with careful oversight by the Executive Committee and Board of Directors. The proposed voluntary policy and programs, built upon CMA's existing air quality policy and waste minimization program, are crafted to respond to immediate public concerns focused on the Section 313 release reports and to demonstrate industry leadership. To assist you in preparing for the briefing, I am attaching a copy of the proposal. Please treat these materials as confidential. CMA's Environmental Management Committee will evaluate comments and make revisions over the next two months and make a final presentation to the Board of Directors in April. The March 1 briefing is designed for senior environmental, health and safety, and legal managers, to review the proposed policy and program, discuss the relationship to other CMA initiatives, its implementation, communication strategy, impact on local operations, and to provide opportunities for attendees to ask questions. A tentative agenda is enclosed. The briefing will be held at the Ramada Renaissance Hotel, 1143 New Hampshire Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. (202) 867-0800 beginning at 9:00 a.m. A block of rooms has been reserved for those who will arrive the night before. (When making reservations refer to RR #392.

In the plan. transferring releases fron one eedie to another should be used only if the overall volant, tonicity, end iiurl mneantnl inpaet la reduced.
