Converter pollutes
Studies have confirmed that the
catalytic converters on many 1975
automobiles will cause an air pollu
tion problem of their own, an En
vironmental Protection Agency offi
cial said Monday.
The converters will be standard
equipment on about 70 percent of
the 1975 cars in order to meet fed
eral air pollution standards.
John Moran, director of the
EPA’s $3.5-million study of auto
emission problems, said the study
confirmed that the converters will
produce emissions of sulfuric acid.
Moran and his colleagues first
warned of the sulfuric acid problem
in November. Since then, they have
been testing prototype vehicles
with the new converters.
They have found the converter-
equipped cars give off .05 grams of
sulfuric acid per mile in a fine mist
from the exhaust systems, while
cars without converters give off no
sulfuric acid, Moran said in an in
terview.
He said the sulfuric acid emis
sions could develop into a health
hazard in two years. The problem
will affect people with existing re-

He noted the EPA does not re

Legislator
wins access
to UT files
The University of Texas must give
a legislator access to files on UT land
leases, but may keep confidential
land appraisals and sealed bid con
tents, Atty. Gen. John Hill held.
In other recent opinions, Hill
concluded:
• Records of a city’s exercise ol
licensing authority over electrical
installations is public information
and should be disclosed.
• Police supplementary reports
of accidents, including witnesses’
statements and photographs, al
though involving possible litigation
against a city, are part of the official
record and are not excepted from
disclosure.
• A faculty member who fails to
exercise the option to participate in
the optional teacher retirement sys
tem does not have the right to a
second opportunity to exercise that
option on returning to teaching in
Texas after terminating previous
employment and leaving the state to
seed an advanced degree.
• Whether a water pump and ir
rigation casing are fixtures within
terms of taxation depends on facts in
a particular case.
