Herbicide operations have continued to expand in scope. The division
has some difficulty in obtaining approval for the use of herbicides from the Quang
Tin Province Chief. Personnel of the Division Chemical Section defoliated much
of the CLDC perimeter in November, and are presently engaged in completing the coverage.
In January 1969 the Chemical Section defoliated the perimeters of the 3-16 Arty
and the 3-18 Arty on Artillery Hill. Presently the Division Chemical Section is preparing
for extensive use of bulk CSl and CS2 to contaminate enemy LOC 1s and base
areas, and to canalize enemy movements into killing zones within artillery
range. [308, p.41] *
