Internal Union Carbide letter from H. B. Rhodes to W. C. Thurber about a proposed change to New York State asbestos regulations. Rhodes wrote that the change appeared to replace the 5 MPPCF limit with 5 fibers per cc greater than 5 micrometers, recommended that Thurber contact Bob Mereness about industry plans, and noted that written comments would be accepted until February 15. The attachment is a page of handwritten-annotated notes from existing Code Rule 12, Table II (Mineral Dusts), listing asbestos at 5 million particles per cubic foot.
