Report of a March 1975 telephone call with Al Beitelman of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Champaign, IL) about getting RG-244, a Calidria-based gelling agent, back on the Corps' C-200 coating specification, from which asbestos had been dropped. It summarizes Illinois, New York, California, Minnesota and Indiana asbestos spraying laws and lists recommended actions. An added note (pages 4-5) discusses fiber-count data from spraying samples prepared for the California presentation, staining and SEM techniques, and planned follow-up work.
