Internal Metals Division memo from Harrison B. Rhodes to J. L. Myers, with copies to several others, about suggested changes to DOT Docket HM-160 on transporting asbestos. It lists five points: a six-month delay in the effective date, a definition of "dust and siftproof," gluing as a unitizing method, two shipping conditions for dust and siftproof bags, and an exemption for quantities under 2000 pounds. An attachment sets out suggested regulatory wording for Section 173.1090.
