An internal Union Carbide letter dated August 29, 1990, from J. H. Smith to R. W. Lasher about asbestos removal at Brownsville. Smith points Lasher to a Federal Register paragraph on removing asbestos and "feasibility", and recalls that Lasher said at a June 6 meeting that negative pressure enclosures were not needed there. A postscript says enclosures were required at Seadrift, Texas City and Ponce. The attachment is page 22757 of the Federal Register (June 20, 1986), which sets out asbestos work-practice, exposure-monitoring and regulated-area requirements.
