THE BRICK TOWNSHIP MUNICIPAL UTILITIES AUTHORITY 1561 HIGHWAY 88 WEST BRICK TOWN. NEW JERSEY 08723 PHONE: (301) 899-7000 February 9, 1981 Director of Research E.I. Dupont de Nemours 350 Fifth Avenue New York, New York 10016 Subject: Ingestion of Asbestos Fibers through Water carried in Asbestos Cement Pipes Dear Sir: Recently, a furor has been raised on the subject matter by a series of articles in a local weekly newspaper. To date, we have been unable to find any scientific data which would answer the questions raised about whether or not ingestion o asbestos fibers may be carcinogenic. In this regard, we would greatly appreciate any information which, your company may have gathered through your own research. In the absence of your own research, perhaps you could provide some leads as to where such research may have been conducted and/or where printed data on this subject may be obtained. Very truly yours ARC/als Andrew R. Ciesla Executive Director ^CEIVED FEB 10 19>Ji HASKELL LABORATORY DUP 0906194 SC-DP-06760
