Dear Jackson:
X
After reflecting on the recent publicity over the incidence of brain cancer at Texas City and the peripheral involvement of headquarters management in developing strategy for this publicity, I would like to modify the channels of communication between Solvents and Intermediates and Corporate HSEA. Hereafter, please use Dick Yelton as your primary contact on the brain cancer issue and other such issues that could result in significant confrontations with Federal Agencies, or likely to receive adverse national publicity or could adversely affect this Division.
In no way do I imply criticism of you, your staff, or Damon by this change. However, I do believe that we would benefit if Dick and I are at the front of the communication chain particularly for direction setting, policy development, and communications that go outside the Company.
