The purpose of this letter is to alert all potentially affected components who manufacture, mill, mine, import or process asbestos or asbestos mixtures to respond to me so that we mav coord|q^^ , find be on a unifoi Attached are (1) a useful Asbestos Information Association summary of the rule, and (2) pp. 33198-33203 of the rule. In enclosing only the initial pages of the rule the intent is minimization of paper flow-you are all welcome to read the Federal Register If you have the time and stomach for it. What is not evident in these summaries is that this is presently "one time only" reporting and is for what happened in 1981. We are aware of asbestos manufacturing or processing in Engineering Products and Metals Divisions. Anyone else to whom the rule applies, or to whom it may apply, please advise so that we can develop the proper reporting plan with you. Very truly yours.
