Dear Mr, Moore:
Re: Weighing of VCM Cars
Your recommendation for weighing returning VCM cars has been reviewed with the people at Tenneco Oxychesicals Division plant. We agree to credit you with an average of 2,200 pounds for each of the 38,000 gallon cars os wall aa the 33,000 gallon cars. As ve have scales in our plant, and always have weighed the 17,000 series cars in and out, we propose to continue this practice with the smaller cars,
A check weighing of some of the cars during the fall of this year taay be desirable. We can discuss it at that time. During earlier correspondence with Mr. Roland, we had proposed the use of a turbine meter for measuring the amount of product loaded. In order to conserve capital and maintenance dollars, we will continue weighing the full cars In the Houston freight yard as they are dispatched to the train nake-up tracks. No time is lost during this procedure, and we believe it la quite workable.
Very truly your3,
TENNECO OXYCHEMlCALS DIVISION
