Letter from T. P. Norris of Union Carbide to the technical director of Pacs Textures Company, a tape joint compound manufacturer, responding to requests for information on the status of federal OSHA asbestos regulations. It quotes the 1972 standard's 5 fiber/cc limit and the 2 fiber/cc limit effective July 1, 1976, and states that neither the standard nor OSHA's October 1975 proposal prohibits asbestos in tape joint compounds.
