DATE: MAY 28, 1976
SUBJECT: MINNESOTA LAW H.F. NO. 1585 CHAPTER NUMBER 742
Dear Jim:
Attached is a copy of the ban of powdered asbestos in Minnesota. Would you please:
1. Ask your attorney if the burden is upon us as a manufacturer and/or your representative to advise all customers of this law.
2. What products in our line pose a problem?
3. I am assuming there is no price difference between nonasbestos Joint Cement versus the regular formula and that this is true for all the products with the nonasbestos formula. Is this correct?
Let's talk this over on the phone just as soon as you have a chance.
