S&OH FIELO OBSERVATION - ASBESTOS GASKET STORAGE
The S&OH team recommended we reevaluate asbestos gasket (G1 & SI) storage to be In compliance with the company recommendations which include storing gaskets In marked plastic bags, covered gasket boards or cabinets. I am requesting the recommendations of the company be reevaluated with consideration being given to:
e The high relative humidity of this area.
e The high probability of the gaskets drying out In covered storage and asbestos dust collecting In the enclosures creating a hazardous condition. See Engineering Standard S4T 2.2 e and 2.4.
e Plant air sampling history of cutting and handling asbestos gaskets. (Available from Engineering Tech. Services)
e The possibility of obtaining goals through education and self management principles. This could Include spraying gaskets with fine mist of water when dusting was evident.
P&O will begin an education program Including water misting while awaiting your decision.
