MEMORANDUM


SUBJECT:  Use of Cyclohexanol at DuPont Sabine River Plant,
          Orange, TX

FROM:     Ron Josephson, Environmental Engineer
          Office of Solid Waste, OSW (Note:  Office of Solid Waste, OSW, was renamed Office of Resource Conservation and Recovery, ORCR, on January 18, 2009)

TO:       File


     Today I spoke with Reed Marton of the DuPont Sabine
River Plant, Orange, Texas.  I inquired about the use of
cyclohexanol at the plant as the Toxics Release Inventory
(1995) showed the use code as 3C, ancillary or other use,
possibly indicating a solvent use.  Mr. Marton told me that
the plant makes adipic acid, a nylon intermediate, and that
cyclohexanol is not used as a solvent at the facility.  A
sister plant in Victoria, Texas also uses cyclohexanol, and
the use is coded as produced, used for on-site processing,
and as a reactant.

     This memorandum will be placed in the docket to the
final solvents listing determination.
