Letter from J. B. Leverton of Union Carbide's Chemicals and Plastics unit in Texas City to the OSHA Houston South Area Director. It acknowledges OSHA's September 8, 1980 letter about a complaint and says an investigation is in progress. The letter lists three reasons the complaint is difficult to evaluate, including that the company did not understand exposure to cigarette smoke from other employees' personal preference to be a health hazard. Blind copies went to eleven named recipients, including D. H. Glenn, M.D.
