CertainTeed Corporation plant at Riverside, California

In December 1966, Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, reported that Certain-teed Products had "officially opened its new asbestos-cement pipe manufacturing plant at Riverside, California."2 CertainTeed's own sworn answers in a 2000 lawsuit give a different start, listing the plant as "Riverside, CA (1965-1992)" among its asbestos-cement pipe plants.1 The same answers say that dust samples were taken "periodically" at CertainTeed's asbestos-cement pipe plants after June 1, 1962, by state or federal agencies or by its workers' compensation insurers, and after 1973 by the company's own employees; they speak of the pipe plants together, not of Riverside alone.1
