Hi Frank,

I got this email this morning from a museum up in Alaska asking about some
mining equipment, and I thought you would be a good person to ask.  They
asked me and of course I have no idea!

If you have any ideas or comments please let me know.

See you tonight,

Michelle

"I have a question about 60-year-old+ oil in machinery. The questions deals

specifically with machinery at the Kennecott Mine in Alaska. There are no

plans to ever run the machinery again, but the question is whether to drain

the oil and replace it with synthetic, drain the oil and leave the

machinery empty (not my choice because I think the parts would rust

immediately in the climate here), or leave it alone. There's not a problem

with leakage or containment at this point because all of the machinery have

catch basins underneath. It's not an environmental issue at the moment,

but a preservation one."
