Letter from Union Carbide's Investment Recovery Department to Kimmins Industrial Service Corporation raising three concerns about the Olefins II demolition project at Texas City. The first concern was that monitoring of asbestos removal by subcontractor A&A Insulation-Contractors continued to show fiber readings above the OSHA standard, and that only about half of roughly twenty exposure notices had been returned signed. The letter also covered the use of blasting on the stack and water tower and damage to piping, and recommended that A&A not be used again for asbestos work in Union Carbide plants.
