                  <text>&lt;p style="margin-top: -1em; line-height: 1.2em;"&gt;The Alvin L. Young Collection on Agent Orange comprises 120 linear feet and spans the late 1800s to 2005; however, the bulk of the coverage is from the 1960s to the 1980s and there are many undated items. The collection was donated to Special Collections of the National Agricultural Library in 1985 by Dr. Alvin L. Young (1942- ). Dr. Young developed the collection as he conducted extensive research on the military defoliant Agent Orange. The collection is in good condition and includes letters, memoranda, books, reports, press releases, journal and newspaper clippings, field logs and notebooks, newsletters, maps, booklets and pamphlets, photographs, memorabilia, and audiotapes of an interview with Dr. Young.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

DDT and man's health

It is a strange fact that, in their consideration of the long'
term hazards to man of exposure to the chlorinated hydrocarbons, the Advisory Committee on Poisonous Substances
used in Agriculture and Food Storage, made no mention
of the men subject to high and continuous exposure in the
manufacture of these compounds. Dr Hayes, in his contribution to the Royal Society discussion of the toxicity of
pesticides to man,1 concluded that real assurance about
the possible long-term effects of small repeated doses may
be gained by studying the effects of larger doses given over
a briefer period. Hence the results of a clinical and
chemical study of men with an intensive occupational
exposure to DDT, carried out by Laws, Curley and Biros,"
arc of high interest.
This study was made on thirty-five men with eleven to
nineteen years of work in a factory that has produced DDT
continuously and exclusively since 1947, now producing
an average of six million pounds per month. The content
of DDT, its isomcrs and metabolic products, in the men's
fat ranged from 38 to 647 ppm; the average for the general
population of this area is 8 ppm. From these figures and
the excretion of DDA in the urine, it was estimated that
the mean daily intake of DDT by the twenty men with high
occupational exposure was 17-5 to 18 mg per man per day;
the average for the general population was 0-04 mg per
man per day.
Neither medical history, physical examination, routine
clinical tests nor chest x-ray revealed any ill effects attributable to this massive exposure to DDT.

International Congress of Plant Protection
The Seventh International Congress of Plant Protection
will be held in Paris from September 21st to 25th, 1970.
The objectives of the Congress are those of previous Congresses, the sixth of which was held in Vienna in 1967,
though the seventh Congress will not be concerned with
the chemistry of pesticides, but rather their general
characteristics.
Section A, dealing with economic studies, will include
the significance of crop losses due to pests, the economic
aspects of pest control, the implementing of crop protection measures and methods of investigation. Section B
comprises: (I) prophylactic methods including sanitation,
the use of resistant varieties, regulatory methods; (2)
mechanical and physical methods such as thermal therapy,
irradiation, etc; (3) chemical methods such as the use of
pesticides, chemosterilants, attractants, repellents and inhibitors; (4) biological methods; (5) integrated control,
prognosis and warnings. Section C is for the study of the
consequences of pest control including the risk of residues
and their effects on wild life and the problems of pesticide
resistance. Section D is concerned with general procedures
for the application of control measures.
The Congress is sponsored by the Socie'te' Francaise de
Phytiatrie et de Phytopharmacie, from whom further particulars may be obtained, the address being 57, Boulevard
Lannes, 75-Paris XVP, France.
Technological economics of pest control and crop
protection

The Symposium arranged under the above title by the
Pesticides Group of the Society of Chemical Industry was
mentioned in an earlier Technology Note (Spring 1968,
p. 5); further details are now available.
The symposium will open, on the evening of September

Young Collection on Agent Orange comprises 120 linear feet and spans the late 1800s to 2005; however, the bulk of the coverage is from the 1960s to the 1980s and there are many undated items. The collection was donated to Special Collections of the National Agricultural Library in 1985 by Dr. Alvin L. Young (1942- ). Dr. Young developed the collection as he conducted extensive research on the military defoliant Agent Orange. The collection is in good condition and includes letters, memoranda, books, reports, press releases, journal and newspaper clippings, field logs and notebooks, newsletters, maps, booklets and pamphlets, photographs, memorabilia, and audiotapes of an interview with Dr. Young.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

Survey of Chemical Hazards

LTG'Pennington/dg/2605
$.
1. A survey of the Long Binh Depot chemical storage area was conducted on
19 Aug 71 by COL A.F.J. Sommer, Chief, Preventive Medicine Division and LTC
N.E. Pennington, Entomology Consultant, accompanied by LTC Hichard R.
Williams, Chief, Storage Division, Long Binh Depot.
2. This survey revealed many containers of toxic pesticide materials which were
leaking due to rust, chemical deterioration and/or damage. These materials
include such concentrated pesticides as 95% Malathion, 72% Chlordane, 18% Dieldri
12% Lindane, 75% DDT and the less concentrated 5% DDT and 2% Diazinon. These
hazardous materials are contaminating sizable areas in two locations within the
depot. Most of these materials are readily absorbed through the skin and in their
concentrated form present a very serious health hazard to personnel working in
and around these areas. The very poor condition of containers make it extremely
hazardous for the unsupecting or unknowledgeable individual to attempt to handle
these materials for any purpose. In addition to the hazard presented through
accidental direct contact with these chemicals, many of them are prepared in a
light oil base presenting a potential fire hazard when thus exposed to accidental
ignition.
3. Considerable amounts of hazardous chemicals and.pesticides are unserviceable,
unauthorized for further use or excess to the needs of this command and require
disposal. Several staff sections of this command are currently involved in identifying these materials, determining quantities, developing disposal recommendafetions and requesting disposal guidance from higher command. This is an arduous
task which will require coordination and the utmost cooperation between staff
elements involved, ICCV, support commands and Depot personnel.
4. The total problem of disposal is not expected to be resolved in the very near
future; however, the health hazard to personnel of this command by exposure to
these toxic chemicals must be dealt with immediately. The only obvious solution
to this immediate problem is^to recontainerize these materials to remove the
exposure hazard. The condition of many containers is such that they could not
even be moved to a disposal site without endangering the.personnel involved with
such movement. It is recognized that transferring these materials to new containers presents an exposure hazard in itself and all due caution, protective and
safety devices, must be employed. Technical guidance for minimum precautions
'necessary to handle these chemicals is available through the USAKV Surgeon and
Safety Officer. In general the precautions would include a thorough knowledge of
the item being handled, protective clothes (aprons, boots, gloves, etc.),

respiratory protection, availability of soap and a large quantity of water for
decontamination in case of accidental spills, coordination with the local medical
treatment facility to insure antidotes are available, if required, and close supervision to insure adherence to safety precautions. All hazardous chemicals and
pesticides which require disposal and for which disposal instructions are not
available should be segregated in an area of minimal traffic and marked with
signs in both English and Vietnamese as a toxic chemical area.
5. During this survey no attempt was made to identify all of the hazardous
chemicals and pesticides which will require repackaging or recontainerizing, nor
was any attempt made to identify all items in this class which are no longer
authorized or are in excess to the requirements of this command. It was noted;
however, that several items marked for disposal (PDO) were high or medium use
items, and it appeared that many could be returned to stock with little or no repackaging or recrating effort, but some sorting effort would be required. It is
well recognized, that the best method of disposal is through normal intended use
of the item; therefore, every effort should be made to salvage and return to stocks
all items and quantities possible so they can be expended through normal usage.
This will require accurate inventories and coordination to reduce requisitioning
objectives and to insure that stocks are reduced to proper levels.
6. The Surgeon will provide every assistance possible by itemizing those items
which are no longer authorized for use or are in excess to the needs of the command and will provide recommendations for disposal of items which have been or
are being developed. In order to provide this assistance a list of the items,
accurate quantities on-hand and physical locations must; however, be provided.
7. During this survey some items in poor or damaged, leaking containers were
specifically identified, but no quantities were obtained. Based on this infornation
the following recommendations are made for these specific items:
a. 6840-926-1481-Insecticide, Malathion, 95%, 55 gal drums. This item
is a high use item and the containers are not in a deteriorated condition. The
spillage and resulting contamination was caused by damage to the drums during
handling. Recommandahions:
'
(1) Closer supervision be employed to prevent damage to drums during handling.
(2) Solutions still remaining in damaged drums be recontainerized and issued
for use.

*' "

(3) 'Drums fee palletized to facilitate handling.

•

b. 6840-270-8262 -Insecticide, Ghlordane, 72%, 5 gal can. This item has a
limited use in the command. Recommendations:
(1) Serviceable material be returned to stock.
(2) Material in unserviceable containers be recontainerized and placed in
the segregated area pending disposal instructions.
c. 6840-264-9043 - Insecticide, Dieldrin, 18%, 5 gal can. There is no further
requirement for this item. Recommend that material in poor containers be recontainerized and all stocks be placed in the segregated area pending disposal instructions.
d. 6840-685-5438 - Insecticide, Malathion, 57%, 5galca,n. This is a high
use item and a large quantity was noted marked PDO. Recommendations:
(1) All serviceable containers be separated from unserviceable containers
and returned to stock (at a cost of approximately $30.00 per can, this is an
economical exercise). These stocks should be marked for issue priority over
cans in new condition.
(2) Serviceable material (uncontaminated by water or foreign matter) in
