Response to PR Notice 2001-1 

Dear Mr. Brennis: 

MayS,2003 

I have enclosed Olin's modified labels that have been revised to comply with PR Notice 2001-1, 

which provides guidance for updating the format and content of fIrSt aid statements on pesticide 

product labels. The only modification to these labels from the original EPA approved label is the 

change to the first aid statements which were modified exactly to EPA's recommendations in the PR 

Notice. I have enclosed EPA Form 8570-1 for each product as well as five copies each of the draft 

labels, as requested by the PR Notice. Please note that Olin has four manufacturing facilities that 

produce these products. The only difference in the labels are the state designations in the 

establishment numbers, for example, 723IS-XX-001. Therefore, I have enclosed one representative 

plant label. 

Olin's nine registered products are as follows:

You should indicate the new company designation, new EPA 

Registration Number and new Establishment Number (if it has 

changed) on the labeling at the next printing which should occur 

no later than 18 months after the effective date of this 

transfer. After 18 months, any product released for shipment 

must bear the new Registration Number and Establishment Number. 

If you intend to use the labels which currently appear on the 

transferor's product after the effective date of the transfer, 

but within the 18 month grace period, you must maintain complete 

and accurate records which identify by batch number, lot number, 

or other suitable description the quantities of such product 

bearing the transferor's label. Each container or package 

bearing the transferor's label which is released after the 

effective date of product registration transfer, must be clearly 

and accurately marked with the batch number, lot number or other 

descriptive designation used to identify the product in your 

records. 

Supplemental distribution agreements of registered products 

do not transfer with the Section 3 registration. It is your 

responsibility as the registrant to notify any and all 

supplemental distributors of the transferred product(s) of this 

transfer agreement. If you wish to enter into supplemental 

distribution agreements of your product(s) under this new 

registration, the form "Notice of Supplemental Distribution of a 

Registered Pesticide Product," EPA Form 8570-5, must be submitted 

to the Agency for each supplemental distributorship. 

You are required to contact your local EPA Regional Office 

to determine what effect this transfer of pesticide registrations 

has on the pesticide production establishment registration. 

It will not be necessary to submit labeling for review if 

the only changes are in the company designation and the EPA 

Registration Number. Other changes in the product and/or 

labeling may require EPA review and approval prior to initiation. 

In any correspondence on these products always refer to the u.S. 

EPA Registration Number listed above.

The transferred registration will have the same status under 

the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act, as 

amended, 7 USC 136 et seq., as it had prior to the approval of 

this transfer. 

When registrations are transferred from one company to a 

second company, all restrictions, data requirements, conditions 

(suspensions), and deadlines existing on the registrations are 

transferred with the registrations. The new company is 

responsible for adhering to or complying with all such 

restrictions, etc. on the acquired products. 

In regard to deadlines, the transferee company is 

responsible for submitting all required data according to the 

schedules already established for the acquired products. Failure 

to do so will result in the issuance of a Notice of Intent to 

Suspend. Requests from transferee companies for additional time 

to submit, because they acquired the registration(s) after the 

3 (c) (2) (B) request was issued will not be granted. If a 

transferee company has other valid reasons for delays in the 

testing which were clearly outside of their control, then such 

requests for time extensions will be considered in accordance 

with the established procedures. Transfers occurring while a 

3 (c) (2) (B) request is being issued or during the 90-day response 

time are subject to the same conditions expressed above. 

Registration is in no way to be construed as an endorsement 

or approval of these products by the Agency. In order to protect 

health and the environment, the Administrator, on his motion, may 

at any time suspend or cancel the registration of a pesticide in 

accordance with FIFRA. 

Furthermore, the transfer of the subject registrations is 

approved under the condition that the annual maintenance fee 

obligation has been fully satisfied. The marginal maintenance 

fee is determined based solely on the total number of active 

section 3 and section 24(c) registrations held by the transferor. 

If the annual maintenance fee has not been fully satisfied, the 

transferee and transferor will be notified to comply within a 

specified time period or the affected registrations may be 

canceled.

Note to the file _. regarding 125S-RROI, Olin Concentrated Sodium 

Hypochlorite: 

Because of the policy (stated in PR Notice 70-16) that product 

label claims of greater than 12.5% sodium hypochlorite are not 

acceptable for registration, the product 1258-RROI has not yet 

received registration. However, a change in this policy may 

occur very soon. 

Because of the above situation, the PRAT submission record 

S479729 for 1258-RROI has been closed out with the descriptor "unregisterable concentration." A new submission record, 

S525860, was created in its place. When and if the policy 

decision occurs (for permitting sodium hypochlorite claims of 

greater than 12.5%), the product 1258-RROI can be registered, 

without any further correspondence with the registrant, subject 

to one comment: 

Revise the text following the "Environmental Hazards" 

heading to read as follows: 

This pesticide is toxic to fish and aquatic organisms. 

Do not discharge effluent containing this product into 

lakes, streams, ponds, estuaries, oceans or other 

waters unless in accordance with the requirements of a 

National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) 

permit and the permitting authority has been notified 

in writing prior to discharge. Do net discharge 

effluent containing this product to sewer systems 

without previously notifying the local sewage treatment 

plant authority. For guidance contact your State Water 

Board or Regional Office of the EPA.

Dear Mr. Schifilliti: 

SUBJECT: Olin Concentrated Sodium Hypochlorite 

EPA File Symbol 1258-RROI 

Revised Chemistry Review of July 9, 1993 

The revised Confidential Statement of Formula (CSF) dated 

June 28, 1993 agrees with the proposed label's claim. However, 

certified limits for the active ingredient are excessive since 

the lower certified limit is 14% below the label claim and it 

should be revised. The upper certified limit is 7% above the 

label claim which would be acceptable. 

Submit a new CSF with lower certified limit revised for the 

active ingredient. 

Please modify the proposed label following expiration date 

temperature, it should be similar to: "Product good for up to 90 

days after the date of manufacture when stored at 100 C {500 F)." 

Resubmit five draft copies incorporating the changes noted above • 

This product cannot be legally marketed in channels of trade 

until it is registered by the Environmental Protection Agency. 

If you have any further questions, please contact Ms. 

Barbara Pringle at 703-305-6484.

In re: Olin registration actions on product 1258-RROI • 

Dear Ms. Douglas: 

In your letter of September 8, 1993 the final requirements for 

registering 1258-RRor were carefully described (see enclosed 

letter). Olin promptly responded on September 15th addressing the 

deficiencies described in your letter of September 8th (see the 

enclosed letter and accompanying documents from G. schifilliti). 

It is now more than one year since we have received any 

communication from the Office of Pesticide Programs/EPA on this 

application for registration. To the best of our knowledge all 

requirements for registering this produot have been met by Olin 

corporation (see the enclosed documents). 

Olin's ability to serve the public demand for disinfectant products 

is now being adversely impacted by this delay. We hope that this 

action can be quickly removed from the OPP registration backlog. 

sincerely yours 

~~- Hale Vandermer, Ph.D.

Dear Mr. Schifilliti: 

SUBJECT: Olin Concentrated Sodium Hypochlorite 

EPA File Symbol 1258-RROI 

Revised Chemistry Review of July 9, 1993 

The revised Confidential Statement of Formula (CSF) dated 

June 28, 1993 agrees with the proposed label's claim. However, 

certified limits for the active ingredient are excessive since 

the lower certified limit is 14% below the label claim and it 

should be revised. The upper certified limit is 7% above the 

label claim which would be acceptable. 

Submit a new CSF with lower certified limit revised for the 

active ingredient. 

Please modify the proposed label following expiration date 

temperature, it should be similar to: "Product good for up to 90 

days after the date of manufacture when stored at 100 C (500 F)." 

Resubmit five draft copies incorporating the changes noted above. 

This product cannot be legally marketed in channels of trade 

until it is registered by the Environmental Protection Agency. 

If you have any further questions, please contact Ms. 

Barbara Pringle at 703-305-6484.

In Re: Response to the EPA letter of June 3, 1993 

concerning Olin's products 1258-RROE, RROG, and 

RROI. 

Dear Ms. Douglas: 

In your June 3, 1993 letter concerning the rereview of Olin I s 

previously submitted chemistry data of August 20, 1990, 

deficiencies were identified in the label requirements and the 

confidential statements of formula of products 1258-RROE,RROI, and 

RROG. Each of those def iciencies have been corrected and are 

identified below. 

1258-RROE - The confidential statement of formula reflects a 

nominal concentration of 11.25% with an upper limit of 12.5% 

and a lower limit of 10%. The expiration date on the label is 

"14 days" well within the limits of the data. 

58-RROI - The label claims an expiration date of "90 days" 

ess than the 111 days established by the Olin generated data 

for this product. The revised confidential statement of 

formula sets the nominal concentration at 35% with an u..,:>per 

limit of 37.5% and a lower limit of 30%. 

1258-RROG - The Company has placed the expiration date of'''21 

days" on the label and provided language indicating that the 

product should be stored and used at 10·C. Also, OJin is 

submitting a revised confidential statement of formula'a;·· n 

compliance with PR Notice 91-2, nominal concentration 38%, 

upper limit 40.6% and the lower limit of 35%.

In conclusion we believe that all of the identified deficiencies 

have been met, and we request that these products be registered.

Rereviews of Previously Submitted Chemistry Data 

This is a rereview of the previously submitted chemistry data 

of August 20, 1990. The following comments are applicable. 

1. Olin 10% Hypochlorous Acid. EPA File Symbol 1258-RROE 

a. Based on the degradation curve for this product at 10°C, the 

label claim of 10.0% hypochlorous acid is overformulated by 46% 

with respect to the label claim of 10%. Within 28 days product 

degrades from 14.66% (which is 46% overformulate) to 10.0% (which 

is the label claim and the nominal concentration). 

b. Based on 46% overformulated product within 28 days it will 

degrade to the label claim of 10%. Based on 25% over formulated 

product within 17 days it will degrade to the label claim of 10%. 

Therefore, the expiration date on the label based on 25% 

overformualtion would be 17 days from the date of manufacture, 

based on 46% overformulation the expiration date would be 28 days from the date of manufacture. 

c. The label claim and the Confidential Statement of Formula (CSF) 

must be in compliance with PR Notice 91-2, therefore resubmit a 

revised CSF with certified limits so that the lower limits would be 

lower than the label claim.

2. Olin concentrated Sodium Hypochlorite. EPA File Symbol 

1258-RROI 

a. Based on the results of analysis of storage and stability data 

at 10°C this product remained stable for 111 days (3.7 months). 

Therefore, at 10° C the expiration date is 111 days from the day of 

manufacture. 

b. Resubmit a revised Confidential Statement of Formula (CSF) and 

revise the certified limits so that they would be in compliance 

with PR Notice 91-2. 

3. Olin 35% Potassium Hypochlorite. EPA File Symbol 1258-RROG 

a. Based on 22 day storage and stability data at 10° C this 

product will meet the label claim of 35% Potassium Hypochlorite for 

22 days from the date of manufacture. The label should specify 

that product be stored and used at 10° C (50°F). 

b. Resubmit revised CSF and revise certified limits in compliance 

with PR Notice 91-2. 

These products cannot be legally marketed until they are 

registered with the Environmental Protection Agency.

Minutes of the October 20th Meeting with Olin Corporation 

Discussing the Potential Registration of a 30% Active 

Sodium Hypochlorite Product. 

Olin Concentrated Sodium Hypochlorite 

EPA File Symbol 1258-RROI 

Attending: Ruth G. Douglas (Product Manager Team 32. OPP/RD/APB)

Anna Skapars (Chemist. OPP/RD/RSB)

Garrett B. Schifilliti (Olin Corporation) 

Budd L. Duncan (Olin Corporation) 

Richard C. Ness (Olin Corporation) 

Hale Vandermer (SRA Technologies) 

Olin Corporation requested this meeting to discuss the 

possible EPA questions arising from the application of a 

unique (>12.5"10 active) Sodium hypochlorite product. 

EPA does not currently register any Sodium hypochlorite 

products with the active percentage higher than 12.5%. 

This is based on policy detailed in PR Notice 70-16. 

OliniSRA: Olin wishes to register a 30% active Sodium hypochlorite 

product and is unsure what EPA's specific concerns are. 

EPA: What is the rationale behind the creation of this product? 

Olin: A higher concentrated product will decrease shipping 

costs because less water will be shipped. 

Olin has developed a new formulation process with a low 

ionic concentration which increases stability. The product 

is "purer." 

EPA: What is the difference in ionic strength? 

Olin: The more ions in the solution, the more unstable the 

product is. If you eliminate the contaminative Na+ and CIions, the product is 40-60% more stable. 

[Handouts were given out explaining the process and 

phase equilibria of the system.] 

58
• 

• 

EPA: How will the product be stored? 

Olin: It will be maintained at 10°C in a manner similar to milk (in 

insulated containers). 

EPA: 

Olin: 

EPA: 

(z. Vaituzis) 

Olin: 

EPA: 

(A. Skapars) 

Olin: 

EPA: 

(R. Douglas) 

[Handouts were given explaining stability characteristics 

and temperature maintenance in insulated containers.] 

How can you be sure the product will not degrade too 

much? 

If the "pentahydrate" solid is noticeable, the product is still 

above the lower percentage for the active ingredient. This 

is a built in indicator. 

The user of the product will check for adequate 

concentration. They check. 

Most disinfectants are manufactured by small businesses. 

They do not check. 

The customers for this product are few and specialized. 

They will check. We couldn't stay in business if our 

product was defective. 

The "built-in" indicator (the solid) is a reliable show of 

potency. 

The product will be diluted to "normal" strength when the 

customer receives it. We have no customers that are 

interested in using at full (30%) strength. 

There are concerns about overcalculation/overformulation 

of the products using the subject product as a source 

product. An expiration date is necessary. Data should be 

submitted to help determine the correct expiration date. 

The Agency needs the raw data as indicated in the 

Agency's last correspondence. 

We will supply the data necessary. We declare 30% not 

35% active to allow for active ingredient degradation. ~ 

AI e~-t\~'''5 Your company should prepare a position paper diSoussing . 

what was discussed today. The paper is necessary 

because the registration of this product entails a policy 

change. You should also send in comparative data of the 

59
• 

• 

differences between the subjept product a,nd traditional 

Sodium hypochlorite. 4.'.51 (f/5cu-sS tf'd 6c14f'. ~IS{) 

Olin: May we use computer modeling data? 

EPA: No. 

EPA: One of your handouts uses the name "HypureTM N NaOCL." 

Is this the name of the product or "Olin Concentrated 

Sodium hypochlorite," as entered on the application form? 

Olin: We will use the "Hypure" name. We'll either amend the 

registration (when the product is registered) or notify the 

Agency the name as an additional brand name. 

EPA: You should tighten up your label to reflect the actual 

shipping and storage procedures. Your label states 

refrigeration but your company has stated today that the 

product will not be refrigerated but packed in insulated 

containers. Your application also stated that the product 

will be shipped in refrigerated trucks at -10°C.

Dear Mr. Schifilliti: 

Subject: Olin Concentrated Sodium Hypochlorite 

EPA Registration No. 1258-RROI 

Your Submission Dated December 9, 1991 

The application for registration of the subject product is not acceptable. 

Enclosed is a copy of PR Notice 70-16. On the second page, under item III, it 

states: 

"Products bearing label claims for more than 12.5% Sodium Hypochlorite 

are not acceptable for registration." 

The Agency does not have any Sodium hypochlorite products with a label claim 

higher than 12.5% currently registered. 

The raw data requested by the Agency was not enclosed in this submission. 

Only the results of one sample are tabulated in Table I. Raw data are needed in order 

for the Agency to make a sound decision. 

Based on the results of analYSis taken from 8-9-90 through 11-26-90 (111 days) 

at 1 O°C (50°C), the 34.8% active product remained stable (34.8% to 35.3%). 

However, from 11-26-90 to 12-20-90 (24 days), the 35.3% product degraded to 19.9%. 

This is a 44% loss of the active ingredient. If the Agency were to register the subject 

product, a expiration data would definitely be required. 

This product may not be lawfully distributed or marketed until it is registered. 

If you have any questions, please call Bill Wooge at (703) 305-5295.

EPA Letter of June 3, 1991 

Enclosed is an interoffice memo and attachments (B.L. Duncan 

to G.B. Schifilliti, August 2, 1991) which addresses the 

stability of the 30% sodium hypochlorite solution. This data 

indicates that the product is stable at 100 C for up to 110 days. 

As our label is for "manufacturing and formulating use" and 

indicates that the groduct is to be " ••• shipped and stored under 

refrigeration at 10 C and diluted ••• as soon as possible," our 

stability data shows that the product, shipped under these 

conditions, will remain at the 30% concentration. 

To Olin, the advantage of this product is the ability to 

provide a high assay product and thus reduce shipping costs (less 

water). When received by the customer, the product is diluted to 

strengths normally used (and EPA registered). 

In light of the enclosed data and the purpose of this 

product, please reconsider the 30% active ingredient claim.

The earlier study on the stability of 3S% NaOCI solutions was conducted prior to 

the discovery that these solutions exhibit a very high degree of supersaturation. 

Discovery of the supersaturation phenomenon led to the concept of manufacturing 

and supply of a 3S% slurry of sodium hypochlorite pentahydrate crystals in a 

saturated solution. 

Two studies regarding the stability of sodium hypochlorite slurries have been 

conducted. One of these was an experimental program measuring directly the 

loss of available chlorine in the slurry system. The other was a theoretical study using experimentally determined rate constants. It should be remembered that the 

stability question for the concentrated slurries is a low priority item, as we intend to 

manufacture and deliver a high assay slurry which will immediately be diluted upon 

receipt by the customer. 

The details of the experimental study regarding the stability of sodium hypochlorite 

slurries are as follows: 

A solution of 3S% NaOCI was prepared at 2S·C. The solution was cooled to 10·C 

and a seed crystal of NaOCI'SH20 added to discharge the supersaturation. The 

slurry was then placed in a constant temperature bath controlled at 10·C. Samples 

were withdrawn periodically and analyzed by iodometric titration for available 

chlorine. The slurry was agitated before sampling to ensure that as close to a 

representative sample as was feasible was obtained. The sharp drop in assay shown 

in Figure A occurred after the dissolution of all of crystals in the slurry. The inherent 

difficulties in sampling a slurry are reflected in the scatter of the data. Because of 

these difficulties, it was decided to estimate the stability of the slurries by classical 

chemical kinetic calculations. 

Previous studies have defined that the initial rate of hypochlorite loss in low-salt 

hypochlorite solutions is second order in hypochlorite ion concentration in solutions 

with pH> 12. The rate constants and activation energies for the decomposition ot. •• 

sodium hypochlorite solutions have been determined in the previous stud).and il.···· 

has been confirmed that the solid pentahydrate is essentially stable. That i;. • 

decomposition occurs only in the solution phase in contact with the so)i.Q.... : ••• :.

SODIUM HYPOCHLORITE SLURRY 

STABILITY CALCULAllONS 

AUGUST 2, 1991 

PAGE 2 

Using these assumptions, a series of stability calculations were conducted based on 

a 35% by weight NaOel slurry cooled to various temperatures. The weight percent 

solids and solution concentration were obtained from the attached solubility diagram. Hypochlorite loss from the solution was calculated as a function of time usmg the 

rate constant calculated from the study cited in the FIFRA application, and the 

hypochlorite replaced by dissolution 0 crystals in the slurry. As can be seen from 

Figure C, the decay pattem is similar to that observed in the experimental study. A 

detailed deSCription of these calculations is given in the attachment.

CALCULATION METHOD FOR ESTIMATION OF STABIUTV 

OF SODIUM HVPOCHLORITE SLURRIES 

ASSUMPTIONS: 

1. Decomposttion occurs only in the solu1ion phase. 

2. The loss of hypochlortte In the solution phase is replaced by dissolution of NaOCI'5H20 from 

the solid phase. 

3. Solubllttyof NaOCI'5H20 is given by the accompanying phase diagram. 

4. The hypochlortte loss from the solu1ion is second order wtth respect to hypochlorfte ion. Ionic 

strenglh contribu1ions are considered constant over the first 20% of the hypochlortte loss and 

the pH is assumed to be constant . 

BASIS FOR MODEL: 

1. 100 parts by weight of a 35% by weight solution of NaOCI is cooled to a defined temperature 

(10'C) and maintained at that temperature. 

2. The rate constant at 10'C = 1.2 x 10-4 per percent per day. Calculation (with example for days 

1 and 2). 

CALCULAl10N (WITH EXAMPLE FOR DAYS 1 AND 2) 

1. Calculate weight % sond in original slurry. Assumptions: solu1ion concentration = 27% NaOCI. 

Percent solids = 1 OO"(slurry conc.-solution conc.)/(43.5-solution conc.)where hypochlorite conc. 

of NaOCI'5H20 = 43.5%. Initial solids % • 100"(35-27)/(43.5-27)=48.5% (Note initial slurry 

concentration, after round off errors = 35.0020/. NaOCI) 

2. Calculate weight of solution phase. Weight of solution. (100-per cent solids from 

a. Initial soIu1ion weight = 51.5 ppw (parts by weight). 

3. Calculate loss of hypochlorite from solu1ion. Loss. solution weight "(solution conc.-((solution 

conc.)/((solution conc .. k)+ 1 )))/1 00. Concentration loss = 27-(27/(27"1.27*10-4)+ 1) = 0.092% 

per day until solid Is completely dissolved. For first day, the net loss = .0048 ppw from the 

solu1ion. 

4. Calculate new weight of solid. New solid weight = (1 ~O-solution weight-(Ioss from 3/.453» For 

first day, new solid weight = 48.49 ppw. 

5. 

6.

Chemistty 

1. This product is not sublltantial1l' similar t:o all products 

registered under tne Ci1lciumaM sodi';"'<Jlypochlorite Standard. 

This product is similar to other products but not substantially 

similar. 

There is no 30\ sodium hypochlori<te reqlstered product. 

2. Storage and stehility data was conducted< for 38 percent sodium 

hypochlorite for 34 daYJl at 10 ·C. <Within 34 days at 10 9C < 

product<deqraded from 38 t:o 21 percent which 1s a 29 percent 

loss in the active ingredient. 

If product is registered at 30 percent sodium hypochlorite then 

w1 thin 34 days at 10 ·C it will ",lIAngeor degrade from 30 to 19 

percent sodium hypochlorite, th~~£P~e. the< label~claim should 

be 19 percent s<>dill" hypochlor1tewhicll WOUld be valid for 34 

days from the date of manufacture. After 34 days the product 

<will not meet the label claim. < 

For each 10 • rise in temperature the degradation rate is

SUBJECT Toxi . on Lithium-, Potassium-, 

ochlor, e Chloric Acid and 

Hypoc orous C1 

DATE May 3, 1990 

COPY TO S. J. Barbee 

N. Barone 

L. Casteel 

H. H. Klein 

Recently, Harvey Klein has requested me to retrieve all toxicity testing performed on the above-menticned subject, that 

was carried out in accordance with EPA "Good Laboratory Practice" (GLP). As I indicated at the last J3 meeting on April 

3, 1990, all testing initiated by Olin was done on calcium 

hypochlorite with recent acute toxicity testing on hypochlorous acid (5 & 10%). 

After a complete search of the files and consulting with 

Steve Barbee, I was able to find one report with 11% Sodium 

Hypochlorite (+ 2% NaOH) for DOT corrosivity in rabbits,· 

although the study does not 1ndicate if it was carried out in 

accordance with EPA's GLPs. However, next week I will be 

visiting MB Research Laboratories (the lab that conducted the 

work) and will inspect their files in an attempt to determine 

if the tests were carried out under the "spirit" of GLPs. 

Also, recent studies carried out on 5 & 10% hypochlorous acid 

for primary dermal irritation in rabbits and primary eye 

irritation/corrosion in rabbits are available in our files. 

In addition, the 10% hypochlorous acid was tested for acute 

dermal toxicity in rabbits/LDSo. The studies conducted with 

hypochlorous acid were carried out in accordance with the EPA 

GLPs. 

Based on the limited amount of toxicological testing, I recommend that acute toxicity testing be carried out on representative samples of the proposed products, i.e., lithium-, 

sodium-, potassium-hypochlorite, hypochlorous acid and 

chloric acid. Information attained from such testing will 

allow for appropriate acute toxicity evaluation of these 

materials as well as allowing for the comparison to similar 

hypochlorites already registered. The cost for completing 

acute toxicity testing on each individual compound indicated 

will run approximately $4,000.00 per compound with final 

reports available one to two months after the testing laboratory receives samples.

Furthermore, technical services need to submit a request for 

the develcpment of an official Olin MSDS for the J3 stream 

products, only sample MSDSs are available at this time. The 

toxicology and health information section will be completed 

after receipt of the proposed acute toxicity data. 

If you agree with the above recommendations, please inform me 

at your earliest convenience. Also, if you have any questions, please call. ~~ ?~.
