A 1979 internal letter from L. W. Phair to South Charleston plant maintenance supervisors says the new asbestos handling procedure applies to all crafts. It tells supervisors to arrange training and equipment for employees who do incidental insulation removal. Attached is Section XVIII of the Maintenance Safety Manual (dated April 1984). It covers exposure limits, respirators, warning signs, wet cleanup, laundering, monitoring, EPA notification, disposal and training, and ends with a maintenance checklist form.
