I Monsanto MON3ANTO INDUSTRIAL CHEMICALS CO. 800 N. Lindbergh Boulevard St. Louis, Missouri 63167 Phone: (314) 694-1000 February 22, 1983 Ms. Catherine Bobenhausen 765 North Broadway //6B Hastings-on-Hudson, NY 10706 Dear Ms. Bobenhausen: Your letter of February 17, 1983, has been referred to me for appro priate response. PCB issues are certainly very far reaching and complicated and several thousands of pages have been written trying to answer the many ques tions relating to safe and effective use, handling and disposal of this family of chemicals. As you put it in your letter, your list of questions is certainly a "tall order" and any one of these questions could result in one to several PhD theses. I would be happy to attempt to point you in the proper direction, but need some more specific information as to the ground you've covered already. If you would phone me at 314/694-4764, I would be willing to discuss your questions with you in greater detail at that time. Sincerely, / dg a unit of Monsanto Company 0755206 TOWOLDMONOQ59869
