Industrial hygiene survey report on atmospheric dust measured at the No. 2 band saw while three new "Thermobestos" insulation blocks (J.M. #21, #22, #23) were fabricated. All three samples, at 36.8 to 48.1 mppcf, exceeded the 20 mppcf limit. The report kept its March 1962 recommendation not to band-saw these blocks unless the product or the ventilation was improved.
