Internal letter from the Medical Department's industrial hygiene engineer to the King City operation. It states that the link between crocidolite and mesothelioma seemed well established while the link for chrysotile was unclear. It also discusses the 5 MPPCF limit, recommends controlling chrysotile dust well below that level, and mentions an investigation into metals associated with asbestos.
