Letter from Union Carbide's Metals Division to Bemis Company, a bag supplier, stating that the U.S. Department of Transportation had classified asbestos as ORM-C, with packaging markings required effective August 20, 1979. It says Bemis plastic and multiwall paper bags would not meet sift-proof requirements and could be used only if shipped in closed exclusive-use containers or if bags were made dust and sift proof, for example by shrink wrapping.
