Internal Union Carbide memo confirming a phone conversation about preparing bills of lading for truck shipments of bagged asbestos that are not "dust and sift proof." It says the Law Department concluded that carriers must be told the packaging requires exclusive use of the vehicle, gives guidance for rail, piggyback, customer pickup and warehouse shipments, and suggests ways to limit common-carrier cost. A third page, apparently a sample bill of lading, is attached.
