Internal Union Carbide memo reporting an industrial hygiene survey, dated February 7, 1979, of asbestos exposure while an insulator covered two small reactor lids with Johns-Manville 32-pound asbestos paper. One sample for J. R. Monin measured 0.24 fibers/cc, which the memo described as well below the TWA of 2 fibers/cc and ceiling of 10 fibers/cc; it recommended painting the lids with VIMASCO to reduce abrading.
