Mr.. Douglas M errill Paco Textures Corporation 909 Old County Road San Carlos, C aliforn ia
Dear Mr. M errill
As per my phone call* th is morning,. I am enclosing copies of ru les and regulations from the Federal R egister as in stigated by the Environmental Protective Agency and Bureau of Labor Standards, Chapter X III, Part 15lS_and ChapterXVTI, Part 1910.
The EPA i s conducting a public hearing on the proposed standards fo r asbestos on February 15 at 10:00 AM a t P .S. Court HouseT * Hoorn 1501, 312 North Spring S tre e t, Los Angeles, C aliforn ia. I f your company plans to make a statement a t th is meeting a notice must be file d 15 days before the hearing. I f p ra c tic a l, the sta te ment should be submitted 10 days before the hearing. Otherwise copies of the statement may be submitted at the opening of the hearing.
^ P l e a s e note item 61.22 (e)(1) which p ro h ib its the spraying of any
product which contains asbestos on any portion of a building or
stru cture. I 'm confident the EPA has in mind sprayed mineral
w ool/asbestos- stru ctu al ste e l firep ro o fin g, not products such as
manufactured by Paco Textures,' so the rule should be deleted or
r ewritt en.
*"
Plans now c a ll fo r statements by the below.at Los Angeles:
1- GAF Corporation 2- Dr. Hans Wiehl 3- Dr, George Wright 4- Asbestos Information Association/North America 5- Raybestos Manhattan 6- Dr. Walter Smithers
