The exhibit holds two Metals Division customer call reports by Edward J. Kleber (March and May 1976) on General Electric, Louisville's stalled evaluation of RG-600 in polypropylene. It also holds a December 1975 internal memo from F. H. Ancker reporting on a Calidria seminar and visit at GE Appliance Park, with two attached tables. The reports describe GE's OSHA and medical-exam concerns delaying the evaluation. The memo describes GE's interest in RG-600/polypropylene for washer and dryer parts and recommends top priority.
