Dear Mr. Wybenga,
The attached documents concern the KBI product we have discussed.
*
It is my understanding that after October 1, 1998, the DOT will no longer recognize the
classification of UN1960. Could your office please provide me with a description and
classification that would allow KBI to continue to ship this product as we had under
UN1960?. Also, should KBI refrain from describing this product as "Engine Starting
150
Fluid" so as not to confuse any new classification with the old one?
I am looking forward to your timely response, as coordinating these efforts before
October 1, 1998 is of utmost concern.
Please feel free to call me with any questions, comments or suggestions.
