Dear Geoff Paddock

I read in a recent Environmental Data Services press release
that ICI is discharging tonnes of oestrogenic chemicals into the
environment. The release says that ICI discharges APEs (alkyl phenol
ethoxylates - toxic industrial detergents) into the Tees estuary.
I would like to know why ICI is doing this? I visited your site
but couldn't find anything about this.

Hope to read your reply soon.

Sue

P.S. I remember reading articles about ICI carrying out experiments
on live animals at its site at Alderley Edge in Cheshire during the
1980's. Do ICI still carry out animal experiments there or elsewhere?
And if so, what do you test and why?
