Handwritten data sheets from an Industrial Hygiene Department asbestos dust study at the Texas City Plant. They list dates, times, operations (band saw, table saw, tear-out, cleaning cyclone separator and vacuum systems), insulators, materials (Kaylo 10, Kaylo 20, Johns-Manville Thermobestos pipe insulation) and fibers/ml longer than 5 microns. Handwritten comments note a saw blade slot covered with masking tape and an improperly adjusted drop hood. Page 1 is a handwritten version grouped by operation; pages 2 and 3 are a tabular version that adds a January 1971 cleaning entry.
