A handwritten cover note from Harry Rhodes of Calidria Asbestos sends recipients a draft Asbestos Information Association/North America (AIA/NA) response to OSHA's October 4, 1977 generic carcinogen standard proposal. The note asks for comments before an Executive Committee meeting on February 22, 1978. The attached unsigned draft describes the asbestos industry's years of rulemaking and asks for exemption of existing asbestos standards. It endorses the American Industrial Health Council's recommendations, offers alternative paragraphs on the Model Standards, and raises construction industry issues and smoking as a co-factor.
