Annual Report (Form 10-K), fiscal year 1994




Item 2. Properties
Medusa's principal physical properties are utilized by its cement manufacturing operations.
These operations consist of four cement plants and a total of 20 distribution terminals (excluding Orlando, Florida terminal closed February 1995). All four of the company's plants are fully integrated, from limestone mining through bulk cement production, and all possess at least 50 years of limestone reserves. The annual rated cement capacities of Medusa as of February 28, 1995 are shown in the following table:
"Annual rated capacity" is defined as the annual output of cement theoretically to be achieved from full operation of a facility after giving consideration to such factors as down-time for regular maintenance, location and climatic conditions bearing upon the number of days per year during which the particular plant may be expected to operate, and actual historical performance. Actual product mix may result in full utilization of a plant without realizing production equal to the "annual rated capacity". Cement plant capacities are evaluated periodically taking into account actual experience in producing cement, plant modifications and innovations, and other factors.
During 1995, the company plans on demolishing its wet process kiln at its Clinchfield plant. This kiln has not been operated in over 10 years.
Medusa's cement plants, as a group, operated at 91.2% of annual rated clinker capacity in 1994 (89.9% in 1993).
The Wampum and Clinchfield cement manufacturing plants are equipped to ship products by either rail or truck. The Charlevoix plant can ship products by water or truck. The Demopolis plant can ship products by water, rail or truck. The plants are well maintained and in good operating condition. There have been no physical changes in quarrying techniques over the past several years, nor is it anticipated that there will be any changes which would materially affect the cost of production. All plants operate their own quarries, located adjacent to each of the plants.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings
See also "Environmental Matters" section under Item 1. Business, above.
Antitrust Investigation
On March 3, 1994, the Company received a Civil Investigative Demand ("CID") from the Atlanta, Georgia office of the U.S. Department of Justice, Antitrust Division. The CID is apparently part of a nationwide investigation of what is believed to be virtually the entire domestic U.S. cement industry. While the Company is not aware of the actual basis for the investigation, the notice which the Company received with the CID states that the investigation is "an Antitrust Division investigation into possible price fixing and market allocation by cement producers". Medusa intends to cooperate fully with the investigation.
