Mr. Luken advised that B6W policy does not allow discussion of such information without notification of the respective customer (s) involved, and asked that we send a written request. Partially to accommodate this policy, we have re-scheduled our visit to your Lynchburg facility for February 14, 1979, so that notification of your customer (s) of my inquiry can be accomplished.

The information I request to be made available is as follows:

1.
