Arcelor losses for the month of March and through April 18 are attached. Losses from Dept. 246 appear higher than previously reported due to rerouting of several department flows Including some that contain thermlnol units. The Pollution Oroup will try to find a new sample location which will Isolate the ABoclor Department losses.

Will complete project work for operation with T-66 by end of Majr. Soheduled to be ehsngri out by 5/15Scheduled for mechanical completion n by May 15.
B. All unlta using Pydraul A-200 In Dept. 251 changed out to Pydraul A-200B.
C, Continuing to drum liquid caught at catch tank at Dept. 218. Drumming of liquid oaught at catch tanka at Dept. 217 atarted about mid-April. Program begun to determine PCB eewer losses resulting from Aroclor carried out as vapor In the HC1 off-gas from the Aroclor Department. Drowning Jet at Dept. 218 and CS acid sewubbera at Dept. 217 sre potential pointa of entry to the sewer.

PCB Levole In Sewer Current level Arodor loseee during April 1971 averaged 0.65#/d*y (71 PP>). Project| Evaluations 1. #1 HC1 pit will not be used until PR&D aollda reaoval
work 1 completed. #2 HC1 pit la performing well enough to permit this delay. 2, Samples from 36 storm sewers reoently repaired to avoid Infiltration show definite decrease In PCS. Further analytical work required to determine magnitude. 3. Engineering work resumed on collection and disposal of 4pent carbon from HC1 Department. Premise target is Spills There were no known spills of Aroclor during the month.
