Internal correspondence from the Institute Plant industrial hygienist to the plant's medical department. It reviews two 1962 industrial hygiene reports on dust released when Johns Manville "Thermobestos" insulation blocks were cut with band saws in the Construction Insulation Shop. It also records a November 1962 meeting at which Johns Manville representatives questioned the plant's dust sampling methods and proposed a visit to Manville, N.J.
