Letter to the administrator of the Insulators Health Hazard Program reporting a May 29, 1975 visit by W. C. Thurber of Union Carbide, who presented dust-count data on asbestos-containing texture spray materials. The writer said he could not fully evaluate the problem from the data provided and gave three reasons: reliance on work-practice regulations, incomplete dust-count data, and the difficulty of counting fine fibrils with an optical microscope.
