Vista Chemical Company 15990 North Barker's Landing Road Post Office Box 19029 Houston, Texas 77224 Phone (713) 531-3200 RF XF; August 22, 1988 Mr. John Blum Hoechst celanese 1389 Schoolhouse Road New Castle, Delaware 19720 VISTA Dear John: Enclosed are examples of our responses to customer inquiries on Proposition 65. The requests we get vary from a simple yes/no request to the concentration form I've enclosed. We generally try to be as quantitative as possible in our responses. To further define the status of our FVC products, we are developing leaching data on compounds with the highest levels of additives, i.e. lead, on the Preposition 65 list. The proposed TCLP method will probably be used for this analysis. Hopefully this data will allow us to make some judgement on the release or exposure potential to environmental media. We are in the process of modifying our MSDS, where applicable, to contain specific Proposition 65 warnings. Sincerely, Thcmas G. Grumbles, C.I.H.

Based on our understanding of Proposition 65 the following information is provided. PVC compound may contain trace amounts of residual vinyl chloride. The amount is variable but typically well below 1.0 ppm. The wire and cable compounds you buy also contain lead compounds. However these lead compounds are bound in the FVC matrix and typically not released to the environment. Please feel free to call me at 713/531-3445 if you have questions on the above.
