A letter from the Plant 512 Medical Director to the Plant Manager and a distribution list, enclosing an Industrial Hygiene Department report by Mr. Poole on a dust problem in the Construction Insulation Shop. The letter says 'Thermobestos' dust was reported to be a definite health hazard and could cause silicosis in exposed, unprotected workers. It says use of 'Thermobestos' blocks would stop, and that chest X-rays would be ordered and the exposed men followed periodically.
