Subject: Owens Corning Waxahacie data 

Dear Ms. Fairchild: 

Please find attached a test report from Owens Corning’s Waxahachie, Texas, manufacturing facility. This data is not 

deemed as confidential business information. This data provides the substantiation that companies will not be able to 

meet EPA’s proposed emission limits for formaldehyde. The phenol, and methanol data that was provided in my earlier 

letter was also from actual test data from similar operations. Other companies will likely send you additional data, but 

that data may be deemed confidential business information. If it is confidential business information, I have instructed 

them not to send it directly to you. I will keep you posted on data that may be sent to you. 

Sincerely,

Angus,

Please identify specifically which test data corresponds to the high-binder products I am 

assuming that these are the products we have issues with., which lines specifically 

manufacture those products - V1, and identify the specific facilities Waxahachie Tx, 

test dates Oct 2002, pollutants Formaldehyde, and process units tested Line. 

I have attached the summary report for that test. 

I used data from C4 and F6 to estimate phenol and methanol as I had test data and 

those are the "back up" lines of for the same products for OC. I can supply that data as 

well if necessary.
