INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREPARATION OF FORM PD-190

This application form is prescribed pursuant to the requirements of Amendment No. 1 to General
Preference Order M-19. :

Prepare application in quadruplicate; forward original, duplicate, and triplicate with order to sup-
plier, retain quadruplicate for your file.

Persons requiring Chlorine must place their orders with their suppliers on or before the 10th day
(the 5th day if the supplier is a distributor) of the month for the total quantity of Chlorine requested
for delivery during the succeeding month.

Suppliers who are distributors will forward the original and duplicate copies of all PD-190 forms
received by them together with their own application on PD-190 to reach the producer on or before
the 10th day of the month.

Upon the basis of applications received on or before the 10th day of each month for delivery during
the succeeding month, the producer, on or before the 15th day of such month, will file with the Director
of Priorities on Form PD-191 his proposed schedules of deliveries to be made during the succeeding month
together with the duplicate copies of all PD-190 forms received by him for that month. Such schedules
will allot the Chlorine to be available for delivery in accordance with preference ratings, with preference
given (where available Chlorine is insufficient to fill all orders) to higher rated orders.

If there is any question as to the propriety of any preference rating assigned to any order, the pro-
ducer will immediately take up the question with his customer and, if agreement cannot be reached, either
the producer or the customer may refer the question to the Director of Priorities for determination.

The Director of Priorities will approve the producer’s delivery schedule, or make such changes as
may be deemed advisable to meet defense and essential civilian requirements and to make an equitable
distribution of the residual supply, and return the schedule by the 25th day of the month to permit the
producer to make deliveries during the succeeding month.

Applications must be confined to the minimum quantities required which are commensurate with
economic delivery and permissible inventories.
