A few months ago, the Indian Orchard plant concluded that some special measures must be taken to identify the real underlying causes of a distressingly high number of "gasket failures" resulting in release of dangerous materials.
We appointed a special Gasketing Task Force to study the problem and recommend solutions. Their conclusions, have such broad applicability that I am sending you each a copy of the final report for your use.
I am also sending copies to CED for consideration in conjunction with capital projects and CED design standards, and to the Directors of Manufacturing for possible use in the Manufacturing Council.
