Letter from Union Carbide's marketing manager to a Georgia-Pacific contact about the Consumer Product Safety Commission's proposed ban on consumer use of asbestos-containing taping, spackling and joint-sealing compounds. It describes the CPSC proposal-and-hearing procedure, says Union Carbide would not oppose a ban on consumer-size packaging, and suggests steps Georgia-Pacific could take, including labeling commercial products with the OSHA asbestos warning plus "For Commercial Use Only."
