Dear Ms. North: 

•®8'*: EPA AIR DOCKET 

Thank you for providing product and production data for 

LASCO Panel Products to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 

(EPA) for the purposes of planning the emissions testing on the 

continuous lamination line. These data, which were collected by 

the EPA's contractor, Pacific Environmental Services, Inc. (PES), 

during a visit to your facility on October 29, 1996, have been 

very helpful in identifying proposed production conditions at 

LASCO's wide panel line for the test program. 

This letter is to provide you with a copy of the data PES 

collected during the October 29, 1996 visit and the production 

conditions that the EPA proposes for testing. Enclosure 1 shows 

all product and production parameter data collected during the 

October 29, 1996 visit. Enclosure 2 is a table with the 

production conditions that the EPA proposes for testing. 

The production conditions were selected to determine the 

effectiveness of the wet area enclosure and the effect of 

selected process parameters (e.g., line speed, thickness) on 

emissions. In addition, the EPA considered the frequency with 

which each product is produced on the wide line in order to 

increase the likelihood of being able to test the selected 

scenarios. 

Please review this information and provide comments about 

the likelihood of conducting emission tests on the proposed 

scenarios. Please submit all written comments to 

Ms. Melva Toomer, Office Of Air Quality Planning and Standards, 

CBI Manager, Mail Drop 13, Research Triangle Park, NC 27711.
