Memo from T. L. Grittie transmitting McCrone Environmental Services' analysis of five Jaxsan insulation samples from the Sistersville plant. The memo reports 7-15% chrysotile asbestos, higher than the supplier had stated, and says the material should be handled with care and that industrial hygiene monitoring of insulators during removal would be done. Attached are sample descriptions, McCrone's cover letter of March 1986, and five bulk sample analysis sheets.
