Monsanto Monsanto Company 800 N. Lindbergh Boulevard St. Louis, Missouri 63187 Phone: (314) 684-1000 January 8, 1985 Mr. Walter L. Reid Acushnet Company Rubber Division P.O. Box E916 New Bedford, MA 02742 Dear Mr. Reid: In response to your letter of December 11 and subsequent phone discussions, I am enclosing the results of our search of-previous sales records regarding Acushnet purchases from Monsanto for the years 1971 and 1972. Again let me state, there is no such product - Aroclor 1252. The number "1252" in this record refers to a sales location area not a product. Also, the product Therminol 55 is not and was not a polychlorinated biphenyl material. As a matter of fact, it is a replacement product for former PCB heat transfer fluid formulations. I hope this answers your questions. Sincerely, hi. Idle*-- John H. Craddock, Ph.D. Product and Environmental Safety Director /dkr Enclosure bcc: J. G. Nassif - E2NG 0754907 TOWOLDMONOQ59731
