EPA AIR DOCKET 

Enclosed is a draft of the trip report covering a visit by EPA and 

MRI personnel to the Greensboro Industrial Platers plant in Greensboro, 

North Carolina, on October 29, 1984. We would appreciate your reviewing 

the report for any errors or omissions. You may return the enclosed 

copy of the report with your written comments if you wish. A copy of 

the final version of the report will be sent to you for your records. 

Since this report will eventually become a part of the public record, we 

want to portray your operation as accurately as possible. 

If you believe that disclosure of any specific information contained 

in the trip report would reveal trade secrets or other confidential 

information, you should clearly identify the specific information. If 

the United States Environmental Protection Agency determines that there 

is a need to disclose such information, we will need, at that time, the 

following to support your claim: 

1. Measures taken by Greensboro Industrial Platers to guard against 

undesired disclosure of the specific information to others; 

2. The extent to which the specific information has been disclosed 

to others and the precautions taken in connection therewith; 

3. Pertinent confidentiality determinations, if any, by other 

Federal agencies (furnish a copy of any such determination, or reference 

to it, if available); and 

4. Whether Greensboro Industrial Platers asserts that disclosure 

of the specific information would be likely to result in substantial 

harmful effects on its competitive position, and, if so, what those 

harmful effects would be, why they should be viewed as substantial, and 

an explanation of the causal relationship between disclosure and such 

harmful effects. 

/• 
P.3 

Any specific information subsequently determined to constitute a 

trade secret will be protected under 18 U.S.C. 1905. However, all 

emission data will be available to the public. 

We respectfully request that you submit your review comments on the 

trip report by December 21, 1984. If you concur with the information 

contained in the report, we would appreciate a letter to that effect. 

If we do not hear from you by December 21, 1984, EPA will consider the 

report nonconfidential, complete, correct, and final. _ ... 

Thank you for your cooperation. The information supplied by 

Greensboro Industrial Platers will be most helpful in our study. 

If you have any questions or wish to give comments by phone, please 

call me at (919) 541-5601 or Ms. Barb Duletsky of MRI at (919) 781-5750. 

Sincerely,
