RE: U.S. v. Conoco
Gentlemen:
Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of July 20, 1984, among E.I. 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.
As discussed with you on the day of the release, on July 27, 1987,
the Vista VCM plant experienced a RVD which resulted in VC emissions
above the reportable quantity.
The appropriate state and 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
