On March 11, 2003 Tim Simpson and myself met with Solufia representafives and Alabama Department of Environmental Management staff to review the PCB ambient air monitoring sites operated by Solutia in Anniston, Alabama. Four previously operated sites, the new meteorological site, and four new ambient air monitoring sites were reviewed to assess siting objecfives and ambient exposure.

All monitoring sites were satisfactory. Site #5 is located adjacent to a chain link fence which has vegetative growth along the length ofthe fence. It was relayed to the company representatives the vegetation would need to be removed to ensure good exposure along the eastem side of the monitor. The company representatives agreed to keep the fence clear of vegetafion.

Included are photographs of each monitoring site, and a map showing the location of the sites in relation to plant property. If you have any quesfions or comments, please contact me at (706)355-8739.
