Daniel Stanowick (216) 376-6500 or Nora Jacobs (216) 781-2400 DIRECTORY OF TECHNICAL INFO ON PVC PIPE AVAILABLE WAYNE, New Jersey, May 31, 1990 -- A listing of technical information covering everything from specifications for PVC pipe used in highway drainage systems to thawing procedures for water mains is available from PRO, the Pipe Resource Organization of the Vinyl Institute. The new publication, which lists the titles of nearly 70 research reports and technical papers, will add to the clearinghouse of materials compiled by PRO on the advantages of using PVC (polyvinyl chloride) pipe over other types of piping materials. Earlier this year, PRO released "PVC Pipe for All the Right Reasons," an information package about the use of PVC in water and sewer pipe and related applications. PRO said at the time it would periodically update and expand the package. The new directory is the first such addition. It contains the titles and numerical designations of a variety of documents available from the American Society for Testing and Materials, the American Water Works Association, Uni-Bell PVC Pipe Association, the Plastics Pipe Institute, the Plastic Pipe and Fittings Association and the Vinyl Institute.
