Asbestos Textile Bridgeport Hr. M. W. Oliver, No. Charleston Newport News March 10, 1971 Memo No. 71-463 Oa-Marcir r ve were given the sad news that ve did not receive any of this large contract. The reason being that our aaterial was too dusty and, therefore, did not aeet rheir specifications. This lots cannot be biased on any person. Jowl Brampton finally calked us into giving him a decent quotation after many years of just quoting a ridiculously high figure.' Next year ve will be ready for this contract and our material vlll be approved. We would like Jod Fraapton to try to get to the bottom of the reason our material was not approved. This can be accom plished by getting their testing procedures and then make certain ve come out with a doth that is sufficiently dust free to pass their specifications. This I am sure John Hawkins can do. William A. Mitchell kgo .. CC: Messrs. M. Q. Scovcroft D. J. Maxwell. No. Charleston J. W. Frampton, Jr.
