Dear Mr. Haynes:
I am enclosing a table which breaks the code for the recently completed CTFA Task Force on Round Robin Testing of Consumer Talcum Products for Asbestiform Amphibole Minerals. The names, addresses, and phone numbers are also included for those industrial parti cipants whose products were involved.
In accordance with your discussions with Norm Estrin and George Sandland, Chairman CTFA Talc Subcommittee, we would request your assistance in the dissemination of these round robin results as follows :
1. Please contact me (201/524/5518) upon receipt of this letter so that I may destroy the only other copy of this table, which is in my possession.
2. Contact each of the industrial participants
to inform them of the round robin results for their product only, as well as the actual lot tested. Please emphasize that no talcum product failed CTFA Method J4-1, Parts I and II; i.e., no product was found to contain asbestiform "amphibole at a level equal to or greater than 0.5% by weight. ''Nonasbestiform Amphibole Detected'1 means that the product was found by CTFA Method J4-1 to contain only nonasbestiform amphibole at a level equal to approximately 0.5% or greater.
