Notice Pursuant to the National Cooperative Research and 
Production Act of 1993, Further Development of Molecular Sieves To 
Reduce Cold Start Emissions From Automobiles, Part II

    Notice is hereby given that, on December 22, 1993, pursuant to 
Section 6(a) of the National Cooperative Research and Production Act of 
1993, 15 U.S.C. 4301 et seq. (``the Act''), Southwest Research 
Institute (``SwRI'') has filed written notifications simultaneously 
with the Attorney General and the Federal Trade Commission disclosing 
(1) the identities of the parties and (2) the nature and objectives of 
the venture. The notifications were filed for the purpose of invoking 
the Act's provisions limiting the recovery of antitrust plaintiffs to 
actual damages under specified circumstances. Pursuant to section 6(b) 
of the Act, the identities of the parties are Volvo Car Corporation, 
Goteborg, Sweden; W.R. Grace & Company, Novi, MI: Degussa AF, Hanau, 
Germany; Ford Motor Company, Dearborn, MI; AC Rochester, Flint, MI: 
Isuzu Motors, Kanagawa-ken, Japan: Honda R&D Company, Ltd., Saitama, 
Japan; Mercedes-Benz of North America, Inc., Montvale, NJ; and Corning 
Inc., Corning, NY and its general areas of planned activities are to 
demonstrate an on-vehicle adsorption and desorption of a molecular 
sieve storage system for exhaust hydrocarbons; to investigate the 
effects of repetitive starts and durability of current storage 
materials; and to investigate the basic storage phenomenon in order to 
evaluate improved absorbers through the performance of such activities 
on a chassis dynamometer as well as the performance of theoretical 
computer modelling studies of hydrocarbon adsorption.
