Letter from the Medical Department's industrial hygienist reporting phase contrast microscopy results for eleven asbestos air samples taken in the second quarter of 1975 at the Linde Speedway Factory acetylene cylinder operations. It lists fiber counts by location, suggests resampling where more than 2 fibers were found, and says a re-survey would follow. The exhibit also includes Wooldridge's transmittal memo and a sample data sheet.
