A July 21, 1976 cover letter from R. O. Spencer sent a report by the Institute Plant Industrial Hygiene Department on the potential for asbestos exposure when dispensing stores room materials. The letter said the highest exposure levels came from handling Flexitallic gaskets and asbestos rope and suggested reviewing safety procedures. The attached July 9, 1976 industrial hygiene memo to P. H. Day reported June 1976 area and personal air sampling in Plant Stores Building 330, with fiber counts compared to a TLV, and a recommendations page follows.
