Gamsworthy Princes Gate - Melbourne Robert, l'a glad that yoo continue to follow closely oar opportunities and problems with pentachloruphenates here in the States. There has been each diseaseIon about new regulations for the products at a lower level of dioxins, t o date, nothing is firm and Z really can't give yon any firm information. One of oar competitors, Dow, has now come oat with a product that has aboot 1/10 the amount of chlorinhtea aionelns in It as oar product does and have received a registration from the government. To date, oar registration continues to be valid and no one has set any new standards. There is such activity in scientific circles on diorr** wi f n w m g and ve Vnow there is going to be pressure on us to do this sometime in the near future. When ve get to that point and X can give you something more definite, we'll certainly pass it along to you. in the meantime any activity you hear in that area should be reported. Best regards* B. G.
