Letter from a Union Carbide Calidria sales manager to a tape joint compound manufacturer in Houston, responding to requests about the status of the federal OSHA asbestos regulations. It quotes the 1972 standard's 5 fiber/cc limit and the 2 fiber/cc limit effective July 1, 1976, and states that OSHA's October 1975 proposal excluded the construction industry and did not suggest prohibiting asbestos in tape joint compounds. Copies were sent to personnel at ten other joint compound and building-products companies.
