Tha present asbestos standard sat* a maxima allowable Tine-Weighted Average (TWA) exposure of 5 flbers/ce over an 8-hour period. This, by statuta, will be raducad to 2 ffbars/ce In July, 1976. Tha proposal standard would reduce this lava! to 0.5 ftbars/ec at soma ttma In tha futura. If you have alraady reached 0.5 flbars/ec at each stap where asbastos Is ralaasad Into tha work placa, plaasa go on to fart III; If not, ploasa eoaplete tha following:
