RE: U.S. v. Conoco
Gentlemen:
As we have previously discussed with you, pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of July 20, 1984, among E.l. Du Pont de Nemours and Company, Conoco Inc., and Vista Chemical Company, and the Consent Decree entered in the above action, we hereby provide notice of recently-discovered information which may lead to the filing of an Environmental Claim.
On August 25, 1987, the Vista Lake Charles Vinyl Chloride Monomer plant experienced an incinerator bypass which resulted in VC emissions of less than one pound. Since the release was less than the RQ, no state or federal agencies were notified. Please contact me if you have any questions regarding this matter.
Sincerely,
Thomas G. Grumbles, C.I.H. Environmental Quality Manager
