.K.'i' C MITER - 401-3X9 lu search Biology A. Zt-rvins, Manager i East Pittsburgh ( January 8, 1973 V.'e have reviewed Research Report 74-lH5-Bilog-R2 on "Current Trends in Toxic Chemical Control: Implication for Westinghouso". This is a timely report, and we have high hopes that the Research people, who have received copies, will appreciate the potential chemical toxicity problems within Wetinghouse. These problems exist in the working environment, in the air exhausted from manufacturing operations, and from our liquid and solid waste materials. For over 40 years, Headquarters Industrial Hygiene and Safety have been following these problems and recommending safe handling procedures when called upon to do so. Now, it is time for these problems to be seriously considered by our R&D personnel, who recommend new chemicals and processes for manufacturing. Following are Report: few comments on the contents of the Research 1. Page & - Recommendation 1(b) -- The Safe Practice Data Sheets which have been issued in the past few years do have a section on waste disposal, and we will attempt to update some of the older data sheets to include waste disposal. 2.
