Two internal Union Carbide Institute Plant memos by H. H. Frazier. The July 8, 1976 memo reports fiber counts taken on a mechanic during three brake service tasks (0.4, 0.2 and 1.9 fibers per ml) and concludes there is generally no problem with excessive exposure in the automotive garage. The April 6, 1976 memo reports laboratory sample-dish preparation fiber counts of 4.9, 47.6 and 7.7 and recommends using an exhaust ventilated hood.
