Text of an oral presentation by Union Carbide's Calidria marketing manager to the California Standards Board in San Diego on proposed Title 8 asbestos orders. It opposed lowering the monitoring and medical-examination action level from 1 fiber/cc to 0.1 fiber/cc, citing cost, limited measurement ability and little enforcement by federal OSHA. It also described Union Carbide's monitoring and medical surveillance programs at the King City plant since 1963.
