Five handwritten 'Asbestos Dust Study' forms from an Industrial Hygiene Department. They record fiber counts (fibers over 5 microns in length) from air samples taken on insulators during Kaylo insulation tear-out and cleanup work on 18 and 21 August 1972. Each form gives a sample volume and a calculated concentration in fibers per milliliter. The concentrations are about 6, 8, 12 and 10 fibers/mL on the four 21 August sheets and 2.0 and 1.4 fibers/mL on the 18 August sheet.
