Analysis of Occurronec:

Loss of fluid in a reservoir does not make a suppressor inoperable but air in the suppressor will reduce its effectiveness. There has 4

been.no evidence of abnormal' pipe movement thus no hazard to the health end safety of the public.

All reservoir gaskets and "0" rings will be replaced with ethylene propylene material which should correct the problem.

If this proves I

unsatisfactory the reservoir will be replaced with a new type reservoir.
