Letter to Texas City plant employees reporting that OSHA inspected the plant in December 1978 and January 1979 after a former employee raised concern about brain tumors in the Chemical Shipping Area. It says the company found 10 brain tumor deaths among 455 known deaths since 1941 on a preliminary death certificate review, and that a full-scale epidemiology study would be undertaken by the company with an outside contractor or possibly by NIOSH.
