Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
Georgia Gulf Corporation has applied to the Louisiana Department of
Environmental Quality for an air permit modification for its Plaquemine,
Louisiana vinyl resins facility. The permit modification would allow the Company
to modernize the facility by adding a new production line that would provide
more efficiency, flexibility and productivity. The project would represent a
$100 million investment in the facility. The Company hopes to receive permit
approval by the second quarter of 2006, which it expects would result in
completion of the modernization project in early 2008. This project would
increase capacity by approximately 450 million pounds annually.
