A December 17, 1980 letter report from industrial hygienist G. F. Hurley to K. O. Hopkins, with a distribution list, on dust sampling of construction craftspeople rebuilding furnaces 3 and 7 at the Union Carbide Alloy Plant. It reports that none of 34 samples exceeded the OSHA nuisance-dust limits, but that crystalline silica from a nearby ladle lining operation put some workers over the lower silica-corrected limits. Three pages of sample data tables follow, then five pages of the March 29, 1984 BNA Occupational Safety & Health Reporter covering NIOSH, silica and asbestos items.
