Internal industrial hygiene report on air sampling for asbestos and nuisance dust during preparation of synthetic soil in Building 741 on September 15-16 and October 25, 1977. The sampling was requested by Ag Chemicals because the W. R. Grace vermiculite soil conditioner reportedly contained small amounts of tremolite. The memo reports eight-hour TWAs of 0.004 and 0.007 f/cc and describes the levels as below the OSHA standards.
