A one-page internal memo from John L. Myers of the Calidria Asbestos department forwarding OSHA Instruction CPL 2-2.21A (Feb. 18, 1981) on the minimum airborne fiber concentration for asbestos medical examinations. The memo says the 0.1 f/cc triggering level is unchanged, that enforcement staff may cite without monitoring, and that sales staff should make sure good customers that do not offer medical exams have a dust count to support that decision. The attachment is the OSHA instruction setting out enforcement guidelines.
