Internal correspondence from the Institute Plant medical director transmitting an industrial hygiene report by R. E. Peele on "new and improved" Thermobestos insulation blocks band-sawed in the Construction Department's Insulation Shop. The memo states the blocks released asbestos dust above the T.L.V. and that Peele recommended the blocks not be processed in the shop until they met acceptable standards, with which Sexton concurred. The enclosed report is not part of the exhibit.
