Dear Mr. Leitzman:

Thank you for explaining the pollution prevention technique 

that Cytec's Perrysburg Plant has instituted for bulk molding 

compound (BMC) production during your telephone conversation with 

Madeleine Strum of the Coatings and Consumer Products Group on 

February 6, 1995. Thank you also for explaining the type of 

information considered as business confidential in Cytec's August 

1993 response to the screening survey of hazardous air pollutant 

emissions from the reinforced plastic composites industry. 

Enclosed are two copies of the summary of the telephone 

conversation pertaining to the emission reduction technique you 

use for BMC production. It was documented as since it will be 

useful in developing options to reduce emissions from BMC 

production in the reinforced composites plastics industry. 

Please review the enclosed "contact report," and make any changes 

you believe necessary to make it accurate and complete. Please 

answer the additional questions regarding this technique that are 

listed at the bottom of the report. In addition, we would 

appreciate your sending us any additional information you develop 

on the cost/cost savings and emission reduction. As discussed 

with Madeleine, you did not consider the phone conversation to 

include confidential business information (CBI). If, however, 

you believe that disclosure of any specific information in the 

report would reveal a trade secret, please mark that particular 

information as "confidential." Please sign and date one copy and 

return it to Madeleine Strum (MD-13, US EPA, Research Triangle 

Park, NC 27711). Retain the other for your records. A final 

version of the report incorporating any changes you indicate will 

be placed in the public files of support information for this 

project. If we do not receive a response by March 20, 1995, we 

will consider the summary accurate and final (and not 

confidential), and will place: it in the project files. 
Dr> 

Per your conversation, we have also enclosed two copies of a 

version of the 1993 survey in which we believe we have removed 

the information that was considered to be CBI. If there is still 

information which you consider to be CBI, please remove this 

information (by darkening it). Please return one copy of this 

non CBI survey response so that it can be placed in the public 

files of support information. We will continue to treat the 

original survey response in the CBI file for the project. 

I appreciate your helping us gain an understanding of 

emission reduction techniques for BMC production. 

Sincerely, 

CfcitdUs £.*U<A*~+-%
