Letter from Union Carbide's marketing manager to a customer about the Consumer Product Safety Commission's proposal, following an NRDC petition, to ban consumer use of asbestos-containing taping, spackling and joint-sealing compounds. It outlines the CPSC procedure, says Union Carbide would not oppose a ban on consumer-size packaging, and suggests the customer write to the CPSC, including a suggestion to label commercial products with the OSHA asbestos warning plus "For Commercial Use Only."
