Dear Charlie:
I am enclosing additional information that did not get submitted with the recent May 18, 2000 submittal to you on perfluorooctane sulfonates and related compounds. This information includes:
1. An additional summary and report on N-ethylperfluorooctane sulfonamidoethanol (NEtFOSE Alcohol) and a revised N-EtFOSE Alcohol Bibliography Sheet that includes this report.
2. Information on N-methylperfluorooctanesulfonamidoethyl acrylate (MeFOSEA).
3. Information on Perfluorodecanesulfonate, Ammonium Salt (PFDS).
4. Information on Perfluorooctane sulfonylamido (ethyl) acetate (PFOSAA) and a revised PFOSAA Bibliography Sheet that references FC-127 as another synonym for this compound.
5. Information on N-ethylperfluorooctanesulfanamidoethyl acrylate (EtFOSEA) and a revised EtFOSEA Bibliography Sheet that references a study not included on the bibliography sheet last week.
The Bibliography Sheets for MeFOSEA and PFDS were included as part of the May 18th submittal
and remain unchanged.
