Notice Pursuant to the National Cooperative Research and 
Production Act of 1993--PERF Project 93-16, Dispersion Modeling Project

    Notice is hereby given that, on December 8, 1994, pursuant to 
Section 6(a) of the National Cooperative Research and Production Act of 
1993, 15 U.S.C. 4301 et seq. (``the Act''), Petroleum Environmental 
Research Forum (``PERF'') Project 93-16, titled ``Dispersion Modeling 
Project'' 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 
project. 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: Exxon Research and 
Engineering Company, Florham Park, NJ; Phillips Petroleum Company, 
Bartlesville, OK; Clark Oil & Refining Corporation, Blue Island, IL; 
CITGO Petroleum Corporation, Tulsa, OK; Allied-Signal, Inc., 
Morristown, NJ; Amoco Corporation, Chicago, IL; Chevron Research &

Laboratory (AREAL), Research Triangle Park, NC; and Western Research 
Institute, Laramie, NY.
    The nature and objectives of the research program performed in 
accordance with Project 93-16 are to use more realistic modeling 
techniques in hazard assessments for hypothetical, accidental releases 
from industrial applications by demonstrating improved model 
performance using actual field scale data. Achievement of this 
objective will include the following activities: Data Analysis of 
previous experiments including data from the CHARR and the CEC major 
hazards programs; Laboratory scale wind tunnel experiments and 
performance evaluation; Field experiments and analysis; and Model 
modifications and performance evaluation.
