Dear Mr. Crooks
On March 24 1960. personnel from this Program collected at-
mospheric dust samples in your plant The resulting dust counts are
reported in Table I. In general these show a low dust count however
several results also indicate that the dust concentrations may approach
or somembot exceed the threshold limit of five millions of particles
per cubic foot of air airborne dusts
This limit is recognized for asbestos containing
,
.
toThe cirborne dust is a composite mixture of particles of
asbestos silica and lime as well at the calcium interaction
referred by the trade name of kaylo
product In order to reduce the in-
plant cirborne concentration of this dust the following recommendations
are made
1 General ventilation Improve the general ventilation of the building to augment the local exsust ventilation as
already installed at many locations along the production
machinery
.
2. Existina exhaust ventilation system - Service the ex-
isting system with respect to enclosure devices dust loading and general repair in order to secure the full efficiency of the incorporated design features
to collect the dust at local sources of emission
Note In a preliminary tour of the plant it was
noted that considerable dust escaped at a
sex in the flatware finishing line This
condition however was corrected at the
time of the above study

Ibusekeeping Clean the floors particularly along and under the flatware and roundzare fabrication lines
Note
A considerable amount of bulk or Jumpy material accumulated along the production lines This material will undergo further pulverization on the floor resulting in airborne dust concentrations in the general atmosphere of all plant
areas
4 Exhaust cases from fork lifts - Redirect the exhaust
gases from the fork lifts preferably and above the
lifts This would overcome
from blowing dusts from the
ed pallets where some dusty
the tendency of these gases floors stacked or unload-
material will accumulate
Respirator procran - Continue to use U.S. Bureau of Juper approved type respirators for pacusonoconiosis dust in those locations where dust arises beyond the effective control of the local exhaust ventilation
system This refers to several intermittent opera-
tions such as looding or unloading and charging the
materials from ears lifts and into mixing hoppers
Thank you for your attention to this matter
Yery truly yours
