Thl3 call made with-Bill Papageorge to discuss PCB pollution situation. Bill toured plant and' made recommendations re clean up. He will follow with correspondence regarding this matter.__________________________________
Don reports that the Knoxville Power Board recently held up a bid on capacitors until Westinghouse covered the disposal situation.
He reports that the Doble Co. have formed a committee to study the PCB problem and are going to come up with a poslstion regarding this matter. Me Clain recommends that we contact Doble and points out that "anythig that you tell them may be used against you - and probably will*1'.
The utility industry according to Me Clain is "living from hand to mouth1* regarding capacity. Capacitors are the key. Thus if Monsanto should cbt off the Aroclor supply the industry would need a long lead time to phase in some other impregnant. Otherwise there would be a snow ball effect^on the shortage of electrical generation capacity which could lead to seftlou;
blackout problems.
Me Clain feels that we need a forum on PCB. He suggest that there Is
need for the Industry to sit down and discuss so that we present a united
front on this matter. He feels we should do this first with manufacturers
and then afterwards might get together with utilities through the Edison
Electric Inst.

I Me Clain reports that the KVA requirements going up 8to 10 per cent per I year. The ability to build KVAR has gone up greater than the ability or
/ demand for KVA. This has come about through the use of polypropylene film
which has increased the KVAR by a factor of 3.
} Westinghouse has felt a business Increase for power factor correction
