Internal Union Carbide memo reporting an OSHA industrial hygienist's follow-up inspection on October 30, 1979 at the Texas City Plant, prompted by employee complaints of overexposure to ozone, argon and metal fumes while welding inside van boxes in building 189. It describes ozone sampling on two workers, photographs taken, and the hygienist's closing remarks that results were not expected to exceed the OSHA standard and that respirator use should continue.
