Dear Mr. Bennett,
s f1 It
titan-t C���rt
Please accept this letter as official notification that, effective at midnight on May 31, 2005, Borden
Chemical, Inc. (BCI) has changed its name to "Hexion Specialty Chemicals, Inc." ("Hexion").
This corporate name change will not affect the obligations or responsibilities of Hexion with
respect to compliance with the terms and conditions of any environmental permits previously
issued to BCI. All information contained in existing permits — with the exception of the change in
name — will remain identical.
Our records indicate that the following permits have been issued by your agency for the BCI
facility located at 114 Industrial Blvd., Morganton, NC:
Cooling Water Permit #NCG500212
Storm Water Permit #NCS000332
While no "substantive" changes to these environmental permits are required as a result of this
corporate name change, Hexion wanted to apprise the agency of this change, and to assure you
of its continued commitment to comply with its permits and all applicable laws and regulations.
If you have any questions or wish to discuss this matter further, please do not hesitate to contact
me at [phone].
