T. E. Hanning to S. W. Clark and Others on Asbestos Update: Union Support for Proposed EPA Ban (1986)

One-page internal memorandum, marked 'For Your Information', reporting that labor unions were endorsing a proposed EPA asbestos ban and contending that OSHA's 0.2 fiber/cc limit gave insufficient worker protection. It also summarizes the proposed EPA rule, which would ban five asbestos products outright and phase out other uses over 10 years.
