-more- STLCOPCB4069741 -3- "Recently, the energy situation in this country has focused further attention on capacitors as a means of improving both quality and quantity of electrical service under certain conditions," Mr, Kingsolver said, "Utilities are aware of the fact that capacitors can help save fuel and that without capacitors more generating capacity would be needed. " "But concern over the environment leading to a possible ban on PCBs could have discouraged power capacitor system installations.

One experiment, for example, established that a pcb with 62 percent chlorine was almost twice as effective as ddt in breaking down the sex hormone estradiol in birds; this is regarded as the initial step in the mechanism by which egg shells of pred atory birds (which have very high tissue concentrations of both chlorinated pesti cides and pcb's) are thinned, leading to .
