  • The International Meeting will be held Monday, April 8th at 9:00 am local time and will discuss the global chlor-alkali market, among other topics.
  • The Packager/Sodium Hypochlorite Council is always a lively session for members to focus on issues affecting chlorine packagers and sodium hypochlorite production. It begins at 1 pm.
  • The Product Stewardship Issue Team will meet Monday, April 8th at 2:45 pm and will discuss the status of annual goals including resources and outreach to meet customer and end-user needs as well as regulatory activities.
  • The Emergency Preparedness Issue Team will meet Monday, April 8th at 4:15pm and will update members on the status of Emergency Preparedness Issue Team goals, including CHLOREP related activities, TRANSCAER and other chlorine emergency response training and outreach activities, and updates to or new developments of publications and other resources.
