Rawlings wrote to the OSHA hearing examiner to submit a list of products with relatively low asbestos content and firmly bound fibers, and to say a polyester plastic sample containing 0.5% of Union Carbide's thixotropic chrysotile product was being sent separately to OSHA. He stated the company's view that special regulations, labels and waste disposal rules for such products would have a severe adverse economic impact on its asbestos business. The attached list (pages 3-5) is largely unreadable in the OCR.
