Project report on air sampling done at Union Carbide's Bound Brook Plant on November 11 and 12, 1971, mainly for asbestos fibers in Building 3 during an experimental phenolic molding resin run. It also covers dust in Building 4, lead in Building 6, epichlorohydrin in Building 21 and carbon black in Building 91. It states that some operations exceeded OSHA standards and that the new emergency asbestos standard would require closer surveillance and more frequent sampling.
