Box 471 Texas City, Texas 77590 Re: TACB Account No. GB-0076-J Dear Mr. Erdmann: This is to acknowledge receipt of your January 21, 1980 letter wherein you request approval of an alternate method of testing for VCM content of your polyvinyl chloride resins. I have forwarded your request to our Source Evaluation Section for review. Upon completion of that review your request will be forwarded, with our recommendation, to the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Regional Office in Dallas. As you know, the Texas Air Control Board is not authorized to approve alternate test methods under NESHAPS; all such approvals must come from EPA. If you have any questions, please contact James Draper or Jerry Demo of our Source Evaluation section. Thank you for your cooperation. Sincerely, Enforcement Operations Section II Compliance Division ucc 051507
