A cover memo from R. T. Marold attaches an economic analysis of two ways to handle asbestos in bulk for the phenolic molding compound department at Bound Brook: Union Carbide's pelleted SG-200 asbestos (Calidria) or Carey floats asbestos. The memo asks whether Union Carbide will keep supplying asbestos-filled molding materials. The attached report recommends approving a $234,000 Carey bulk handling facility, ending the R&D program to replace Carey with Calidria in heat resistant products, and continuing the program to eliminate asbestos in non-heat resistant products.
