Two industrial hygiene monitoring forms dated 10/20/80 reporting asbestos fiber samples taken outside Bldg. 702 while workers stripped and bagged insulation from a Dowtherm system. J. E. Hackney's sample was 3.04 fibers >5 µm/cm3 over 57 minutes, and R. P. Hess's was 1.3 fibers over 60 minutes. Neither form calculated a time-weighted average, both list the OSHA TWA of 2 fibers >5 µm/cm3 as the allowable exposure, and both note disposable dust respirators and wetting of the equipment.
