BCC: E. V. JOHN June 11, 1970 Reference1 F 8600 Mrs. Ounne Sundgren Assistant to the Director Scandinavian Documentation Center 2136 P Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20037 Dear Mrs. Sundgrent Your request for a copy of Monsanto's Technical Bulletin PL-306 addressed to Mr. Gilbert F. Martin has been referred to me for reply.' Bulletin PL-306 Is still out of print and publication of a revised version has been delayed Indefinitely. Because of the Increasing evidence that polychlorinated biphenyls are being Identified as environmental contaminants, Monsanto's Management has reoently made business decisions relating to the sale, vise and control of these materials. We are most reluctant to continue to Issue copies of PL-306 since we no longer will supply our products for the applications listed. Continuing to Issue the bulletin would be misleading. If you desire specific technical Information regarding the chemical, physical or toxicological properties of Monsanto*s Aroolors I will gladly forward It to you. I hope that the lack of ooples of PL-306 has not been a serious Inconvenience to you. Sincerely, Original Signed by W. B. Papageorge W. B.
