wv � NOISE - ALLIED SUPPLY CORP. CINDER- BLOCK PLANT MR. WALKER WILL1AMS9 AN OFFICER OF THE ALLIED SUPPLY CORPORATION, PRESENTED THE FOLLOWING COMMUNICATIONS JUNE 79, 1948 HONORABLE ROSCOE S. ADAMS, AND THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHARLOTTESVILLE CHARLOTTESVILLE, VIRGINIA GENTLEMEN: WE REGRET EXCEEDINGLY THAT THE NIGHT OPERATION OF OUR PLANT ON HARRIS STREET SHOULD BE THE CAUSE OF ANY CONTROVERSY AND ARE MOST ANXIOUS TO DO WHATEVER MAY BE REASONABLE AND PROPER IN THE MATTER. ACCORDINGLY, WE WILL NOT OPERATE OUR PLANT BETWEEN THE HOURS OF 10:00 P. M.9 IN THE EVENING, AND 7:00 A. M., IN THE MORNING, UNLESS AND UNTIL WE CAN DEVISE SOME MEANS TO CONTROL THE NOISE SATISFACTORILY. IF ACCEPTABLE TO YOU, THIS SCHEDULE WILL BE PUT INTO EFFECT FRIDAY, JUNE 111, 1948. WE WOULD LIKE TO ACCOMPLISH THIS CHANGE OVER AT AN EARLIER DATE BUT THIS PLAN ENTAILS DISCHARGING A NUMBER OF OUR EMPLOYEES, WHO ARE ENTITLED TO SOME NOTICE, AND IT WILL NOT BE POSSIBLE TO CURTAIL SHIPMENTS OF RAW MATERIALS TO US AT ANY EARLIER DATE. WE MAKE THIS PROPOSAL IN ALL GOOD FAITH BUT IN ORDER TO AVOID THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY SUBSEQUENT MISUNDERSTANDING, THINK IT BEST TO DEFINE JUST WHAT WE MEAN BY NOT OPERATING AFTER 10500 P. M., 1N THE EVENING: THE MACHINES WILL NOT RUN, THE ELEVATORS WILL NOT RUN, THE VIBRATORS WILL BE STOPPED BUT IT WILL BE NECESSARY TO KEEP THE PLANT LIGHTED FOR SOME HOURS IN ORDER THAT THE NIGHT WATCH- MAN CAN CLEAN UP THE MACHINERY AND PREPARE IT FOR OPERATION THE NEXT DAY. THE WATCHMAN'S WORK IS PRINCIPALLY DONE INDOORS AND WE CANNOT BELIEVE THAT HIS ACTIVITIES WILL IN ANY WAY ANNOY ANYONE. WE SINCERELY TRUST THAT THE ABOVE PLAN WILL BE ACCEPTABLE TO YOU AND THAT THIS WILL EFFECT A FINAL DISPOSITION OF THE MATTER. EEB/VA. VERY TRULY YOURS, ALLIED SUPPLY CORPORATION E. E.
