22
want -

1234 boxes of documents that Moore has regarding
1234 these issues You have had an opportunity to give a
1234 few prior depositions You have been able to read
4 your prior depositions You have also been able to
5 talk to some other Moore persons that you have
6 identified as well as review their transcripts
7 And am saying in addition to that if you could
8 just kind of give us a summary of what your other
9 sources of information or preparation for these
10 types of proceedings would entail
11
A. Okay I think the best way to do it is to
12 track back how long I have been involved because a
13 _ lot of this has transpired since basically April of
14 2001. That was when I was first asked to get
15 involved and it wasn't until about oh I'd say
16 August or fall of 2001 that I was involved in a --
regular 17 from

20 employees interviewed them on a one
21
basis

Q. Can you give us the identity of those
2222 persons
2222
A. Sure
2222
Q. Do you recall who they were
- 12
with them was to find out what they knew and so I

Q. And what was his title that would have
12 caused you to solicit him for additional
13 information
14

16 had held norm - numerous positions starting out as 17 a salesman and at one time he was also the sales
18 manager for the company

A. Williams at the time was trying to buy Moore Paint Company
Q. When was this

Mr. Christiano told me
Q. Okay We got to know how he got hired
huh
A. Yeah
10
Q. And then after Mr. Christiano was working

A. Yes
2222 the regional director for the West Coast over to

Q. Do you know if many employees at this same
2222
meet with Mr. Moore and that's how Mr. Moore and

12 believe Mr. Moore offered him a job
send 3 ~ Qs . Got to be careful who you
to
4 negotiate huh

6
Q. Okay So Mr. Christiano went over to as
7 understand talk to Mr. Moore about selling out
8 and instead was talked into coming to work for
9 = Moore
10
A. That's correct in basic terms
11
Q. And about what year was this
12
A. I would have to say it would have been
_
13
early 80s because I came -- I went to Moore
14 in '85 and Joe had been there - Mr. Christiano had -
15 _ been there two to three years prior to that so it
16 had to transpire somewhere around '80 '81 but the
17 initial contact I'm assuming was made
18
Q. Okay Do you know what position
19
Mr. Christiano took when he came to work for
20 Moore in the early 80s

5 but yeah there was a little bit of change going on
6 = at the time-
7
Q. Okay Was Williams considered to
8 competitor of Moore at that time frame
9
A. You could say that -- I think
10 Williams looked at Moore more as a
11 competitor than Moore looked at

13
Q. Who were the other competitors in the
14 market at that time
15
A. It and -- what -- what market

A. Well Moore was -- when I came with
21
the company in '85 is broad It's over many
22 states so there's numerous competitors If you're
23 talking about who was Moore's competitor in
24 the bay area that's going to be different than who
25
was -- Moore's competitor was in Texas and

Q. Do you know what they were using in their
12 own products Was this something they wereusing in
13 their joint compounds or paints

Q. Okay Did Moore have the facilities
18 to produce their own raw materials for their paints
19 or were those typically supplied by outside vendors
20
A. Typically supplied by outside vendors

MR HAZEN Mr. Giffins I'm going
S to object to the form of the question I am going
6 to advise you that divulging your personal finances
_ 7 within the company is not something that you're here
8 to give in your deposition today So you can choose
9 to divulge that information or if you wish on your
10
own decision
11
THE WITNESS Actually I prefer not
12
to but I mean if I have to I will
13
MR COON Okay We agree you don't
14 have to if your attorney instructs you not to but I
15 would -- our level of inquiry there I'm not
16 typically interested in anybody's personal assets
17 sir The reason that we're looking into it is
18
because it may lead to some issues with respect to
19 your opinions in the matter if you have a vested
20 interest in the company that you're testifying for
21
so for those reasons we believe it to be relevant
22 23 24 25
MR HAZEN Again Mr. Giffins I'm
goinggoing to caution you I'm going to let you make
your decision whether you choose to divulge that
_ information or not but I'm going to advise you that

22 23 122 25
A. Just from a personal thing I don't see what that's got to do with what we're talking about
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay Fair enough Let me
just ask a couple other questions then I won't --
don't ~~ we understand you
right now
want to answer that one
Is your retirement based in part as I understand on the shares that Mr. Moore has
distributed to the employees which would include
you
A. The ESOP program provides a retirement
vehicle yes
Q. Okay And if Moore continues to
remain profitable your retirement would be worth
whatever more than if Mooreis for
unprofitable
reasons
A. Well from my personal retirement yes
because there is no retirement program at _
Moore
Q. Right
A. The ESOP provides the employees the
ability to have a --- a viable retirement program

of -- I didn't see the date on it But it appears
to be one from the 60s If you look at some of the

36766920-761c
Page 54
12
photos the cars seem to be from that era And I --
2 there is a number of things in here I want to
3 briefly talk with you about kind of help us get a
4 _ better idea of some -- some of the issues Inside
S there I think there is a picture of Mr. Moore and
6 Mr. Kelly the founders
7
A. That's correct
8
Q. And I can't tell much off of that But
9 you get to here talks about the main office being
10 in San Carlos California is that still the main
11 office headquarters
12
A. That is correct
13
Q. At this time it listed -- again I don't
14 know what year but the factories paint and
IS drywalls was Dallas Houston Ontario and San
16 Carlos Are all those offices still open
17
A. Let me see this a minute if I may
18
Q. Yes sir
19
A. Dallas is not -- is no longer open
20
Q. Has that been replaced with the Hurst
21 facility
2222
A. That has been correct
2222
Q. And that's because that opened in '70 so
2222 you did not need the Dallas office anymore
25
A. No that was closed down when we opened
Page 56 :
12345
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay It appears be
12345
somewhat of a summary that was done by Mr. Merrill
12345
at some point in the past that kind of set out some
:
12345 of the shops and the years they were open
;
12345
A. It was done in -- evidently based on the
f
6 _ signature here it looks like 12 of '82 --
:
7
Q. Okay
!
t 8
A. -- is when he prepared this
9
Q. That's based on what looks to be his
;
10 signature below it with a date
11
A. That's correct
H
12
Q. Okay And he indicated in here I think
;
13 on Page 1 the Houston facility was open around
;
14 '67 It was a drywall manufacturing operation and
i
15
closed around '74
H
16
A. Four
17
Q. Does that sound about right
Hu
18
A. Yeah I would trust this better than my
:
19 recollection
.
20
Q. Okay
i
21
A. was close on the opening
22
Q. Sure
h
a | 222
A. But I was little short on the closing
222
Q. Okay And then if we go back to this
i
25 chart the next area we have the subsidiary
f
5
Page 55
bi Page 57 i
12
the -- the Hurst building
12
Q. Sure
3
A. Houston as far as a factory and -- and
4 drywall that's closed down Ont^riois closed
5
Q. Okay With Houston do you know the years
6 that they were open and closed
7
A. I want to say '66 to maybe '72 because
8
they were -- I think there was still some work done
9 in Houston after Hurst was built I think it would
10 be around '66 '65 maybe to '71 '72
11
Q. Okay Let me show you something to read
12 contemporaneously with it This is Moore
13
1003. It looks like notes from Mr. Merrill am
14 presuming that was probably Douglas Merrill Have
15 you seen that before
16
MR HAZEN And Brent is that a
17 Bates stamp you're referring to dowinn the bottom
18
corner or -
19
A. It's KM --
20
MR HAZEN Yeah can you just tell
21
me that number KM 1003
22
A. Yes
23
MR COON Yes sir
24
MR HAZEN Okay
25
A. have seen this at one time yes
1 manufacturing facilities what are those
2
A. Fresno --
3
Q. Fresno California
4
A. Yes
5
Q. Is that facility still open
6
A. No. I'm not sure what that would have
7 been sir in Fresno
8
Q. Okay What are we talking about when we
9 say the subsidiary manufacturing facilities versus
earlier 10
-- versus the ones you described
11
factories
as the
12
A. Okay At the time I mentioned they .
13
they were in the ceramic business
14
Q. Yes sir
15
A. They were also in the mineral business
16
And
17
Q. Being the mining
18
A. Mining
19
Q. Right I think the brochure talks about
20 that
21
A. Okay And they also at the time made the
22
metal for the -- when you do drywall the metal that
222
goes around the corners and that type of thing
222
Q. Okay
222
A. And I believe that's what the Newark

Page 60 :
1
reference is I am not sure about Oxnard nor the
2 --the Van Nuys I really can't tell you what they
3 would have been at that time
4
Q. Okay And those were other facilities in
S California apparently at one time
6
A. Yes sir
7
Q. Okay Then we have the mining operations
8 listed under that That would be the ones you just
9 described earlier
10
A. That's correct
11
Q. It lists those apparently four or five
12 mining operation locations in California and Nevada
13
A. Correct
14
Q. Okay And do you know if any of those are
15 __ in operation at this time
16
A. believe they are not .
17
Q. Okay And then a reduction --
18
A. Well it may -- I --- we don't -- we're not
19 involved with them
20
Q. Right
21
A. You know they may in operation by
but 22 somebody else
222 ~ ts hem
we don't have anything to do with
222
Q. You would have sold them out
25
A. Yes sir
1
Q. Okay That's the main headquarters
2
A. That's the main headquarters
3
Q. And then in Texas where is the main
4 facility Is it here in Hurst
5
A. It would be Hurst yes
6
Q. Do they have any what you would describe
7 corporate activities at the Hurst facility I
g mean you're the manager president of the Southwest
9 Division and your offices are there correct
10
A. Thatis correct
11
Q. Okay To some degree it's a corporate
12 office
13
A. you want to define it that way yes I
14
guess - I guess you can look at it that way
15
Q. is just not the main headquarters for
16 the company
17
A. That is correct
18 19 20
Q. Okay With respect to Texas is the Hurst facility the main facility
A. That would be correct
21
22 23
Q. Both from a manufacturing standpoint as
well as where the decision makers for the company are
24
A. We're decentralized to the point that we
25 ~~ -- we have programs and things that are applicable
1 2 3 450 450 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18
'
19 20 21 22 222 222 222
Page 59 ;
Page 61
Q. Okay The reduction mill What is that A. have no idea I -- my interpretation would be that that's where they process some of the minerals by reduction but again this was before
my time
Q. Okay Maybe where they take the raw ore and reduce it to something in their processing
A. That would be my assumption yes
=
Q. Okay And then we have sales branches
listed next
A. Correct
Q. First California and Nevada and I guess -
itjust lists a lot of different cities where they
have sales offices
A. That would be basically stores outlets
yes
Q. Okay And then you have below that -- let me first ask you where we're talking about the sales branches here we didn't go into much specifics earlier but Moore as I understand you have corporate headquarters in several different states where your offices are like Hurst Texas correct
A. Well your corporate headquarters would only be -- there is only one corporate office and that is San Carlos California
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 . 9 10
to Texas and the Southwest Division which might be
different than the -- the other division Q. Okay
A. If that's what you're talking about Q. Yes sir With respect to the Southwest
Division is -- I was presuming that you being the president of the Southwest Division and officing in
Hurst that Hurst was kinodf the hub for the
Southwest Division
|
A. That's correct
11 12 13 14 15 16
Q. Okay The states that you also overs^'e
also do they each all -- do each of those states
have a corporate office
A. They have what we call a district office
Q. Okay
A. And-
17
Q. Does each state have one district office
18
A. No. Huh Not each state We have
19 district offices that are set geographically like --
20 as an example we have a district officein
21 Colorado Fort Collins Colorado That district
2222 = office those people in there manage the Colorado
2222
stores as well as the Oklahoma
.24
Q. Okay
2222
A. Majority of the Oklahoma stores

36766920-761c 3676 920-761c 00045a4bdea7
Page 62
Q. So you may not have a district office in
every state if -
A. We do not
23 Q. -- if it's close enough to where geographically you could handle two states you do so
A. Right Q. Are there states where you have more than
9 one district office
10
A. In Texas in Hurst in the Hurst building
11
we have two district offices that both serve the
12 Metroplex here We have the district office that
13 serves the Dallas area and we have a district
14
office that serves the Fort Worth area
15
Q. Okay Any other district offices in
16 Texas
17
A. We have one in Abilene We have one in
18 Houston That's it
19
Q. Okay And does each district office
20 oversee the local retail outlets
21
A. They oversee the local stores that's
22
correct
23
Q. Okay And generally speaking how many
22 local stores does each district have
25 responsibilities for I am sure it varies some
Page 64
explained when we go through the rest of this chart Q. By Mr. Coon We next have the bottom it
talks about sales branches Are the sales branches
different than the district divisions
A. Yes Now we call them stores today
10 Okay 1 -- and again this -- and I was trying to see the date that this was printed
Q. Sure A. Usually on piece of literature like this the date is usually on the last page in the
that back and I don't see
1 it
it's aligned I don't see
But here back -- in those days they called
14 - I believe they called the stores sales branches and if you notice they have got this broken down in
117816
Texas division and then listing the sales branches
which are really the stores
Q. Okay
19
A. And the same thing under California and
Nevada They're really the stores that are within
that basic area
2 2 Q. Fair enough And if we looked at the front of this some of the literature it appears when you give the history they are talking about up through the early 60s so am -- or I think it's
Page 63
1
A. Yeah basically -- it's around 13 to 15
3 per district Q. So the basic hierarchy as I understand
44 you have got the main headquarters in California and then your second to that headquarters here in Hurst where your offices are
A. Indicating Q. And then you have five or so other
g
10
10
division district offices
A. District They would be called district
Q. Okay And then below those you have multiple little retail shops that answer to each of
those districts
14
A. That's correct
15
Q. Okay Are there any other parts of that
1716 hierarchy that we missed Are there lateral
17
hierarchies or anything that we missed
18
A. As relates from Hurst on down to the
19
stores no that would be basically the flow
20
Q. Okay
MR HAZEN And Brent just a point
22
of verification You're talking today right with
225 5 respect to the hierarchy MR COON Sure Sure And I think there are some differences here that will be
Page 65
early 70s so I am presuming that was the time
123
frame involved here But again I didn't see any
dates So if there is differences between the way
4 the chart or this brochure lays out the corporation as it existed then from now you can clarify those
123 with us A. Sure Be very happy to
Q. In going through this there was some basic
structural information showed -- this again is
kind of a corporate hierarchy if we look at the
charts shows the president and then management
committees And I want to ask you here it shows
the division under the president of an industrial
minerals division Is this where you were talking
about they made the mining A. The mining yes sir Q. And then over here we have the Paco
textures
A. That would be Paco
Q. Paco
A. They call it Paco Goes by Paco yes Q. Okay And then underneath it we have
Pacific Trucklines Management Data Services
and Drywall Tape Company
A. Correct

Page 66
1234
Q. Were those all entities that operated
1234
under the -- the Paco umbrella or --
1234
A. No. They -- they would have been -- Paco
1234 would have been a subsidiary Paco manufactured
S drywall equipment
6
Q. Okay
7
A. Or not equipment but the -- the patching
. 8 compounds Pacific was another subsidiary All
9 these are individual subsidiaries As you asked me
10 earlier who were these people up here under this
11 breakdown where it was talking about subsidiaries
12 Okay
13
Q. Okay
14
A. Pacific we owned the truck --
15 Moore owned a truckline at one time
16
Q. Okay When and where did they own a truck
17 line We talking about a -- like Allied Trucklines
18
that kind of a truckline
19
A. We owned our own trucks for transporting -
20
of material to our stores from the factories
21
Q. Okay So instead of hiring an outside
22 company to transport your product from the
23 = manufacturing facility to your retail stores
24 you had your own trucking company to do so
25
A. That is correct
Page 68 &
I
-- we -- when we went into the Paco business they
2 also bought a -- a tape company as well as a meta
3 company and the tape company I believe is the one
4 _ that -- originally where you buy the -- the tape 5 _ that goes on the wall
6
Q. Okay Is this the rolls of the --
7
A. Yes
8
Q. -- sheet tape --
9
A. Yes sir
10
Q. -- that you use to float between the
11 sheetrock and fill in the cracks
12
A. Yes sir
13
Q. Okay Do you know where that was located
14 at
15
A. I believe it was in the East Bay I want
16
to say Hayward but I am not sure that's correct I
17 _ know the -- the metal company was located in
confusing 18 Hayward so I may be
19
Q. Okay
it So
20
A. really can't say
21
Q. If we compare that list with what Mr.
22 Merrill had signed on this document which is 1003
322 he talks about the Paco Textures Corporation was
322 founded in '58 and was located in Richmond
322
California Does that sound consistent with your
Page 67
12 12 3 4 S
6 _
7 8 9 10 11 12 13
Q. Did they do any distribution for any companies other than for Moore
A. No sir
Q. Okay
knowledge A. To the best of my
strictly house
it was
Q. Okay Made sense to them to just
internalize that part of it probably because of a
bottom line expense cost
A. I don't know for what reason they had but
that would sound logical
Management Q. Okay You also had the
Services
Data
14
A. Yeah From -- and again I am very vague
15
on this one This was a -- a subsidiary at one time
16 that made accounting equipment I guess they
17 were getting -- it goes back in the days when they
18 were getting automated as far as accounting
19 things and this was an accounting service
20
Q. Okay Do you know what happened to --
21
well first let's go to the last one there the
2222 Drywall Tape Company
2222
A. Correct
2222
Q. Do you know anything about that company
2222
A. I believe that was the company that made
123 123 123 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

14
15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 322 322 25
Page 69 fy
memory
A. That is correct
Q. And that it manufactured drywall joint
compounds and wall textures and sold to distributors principallyin Northern California of
which Moore was the largest distributor does
that sound correct
A. Thatis correct
Q. Okay Now I want to ask you the next thing there which is distributorships When
Moore has their product lines did they also
have outside distributors that would carry their
product lines under some other name to other
facilities
MR HAZEN Objection form A. Are you talking about paint Q. By Mr. Coon Yeah I guess that's a good question Let's first talk about paints Did they have agreements to have anyone else distribute their products to facilities other than Moore
facilities
A. Oh okay All right
MR HAZEN Objection form
Q. By Mr. Coon Does that make sense
A. Yes sir

Q. Okay
2
A. It does
3
Q. And the answer
4
A. The philosophy of the company from day
5 one and we even have that philosophy today is that
6 . \ the company markets to its own stores We have not
7
been in the distributor business or the dealer
8 business or whatever so the philosophy has always
9 been sell through your own stores
10
If I understand your question you wanted to --
11
your one question was did we ever repackage any of
12 _ our products for resale outside of the organization
13
Q. Yes sir
14
A. am not aware that we ever did that with
15 paint I am aware that there was a rebranding
16 agreement between Moore Paint Company and
17 Georgia Pacific that goes back to '68 and I think
18
that ended '71 But other than that I am not
19
aware of anything else where we would have rebranded
20 or relabeled products for somebody else
21
Q. Okay Do you know what products would
22 have been involved in that rebranding agreement with
23 Georgia Pacific
24
A. There were about four or five products I
25
I'd have to go back to the file I don't recall
ron Page 72 |:
1
A. As far as an agreement between --
:
2
Q. Moore and Georgia Pacific
;
3
A. have seen a copy of that yes
4
Q. Okay Do you know whether or not the
;
S
reverse was true that other persons like Georgia
:
6 Pacific made products rebranded them under the
[
7 Moore name
Ee
;
8
A. To the best of my knowledge no because
9 Mr. Moore has always been very -- give a you little
10 bit of background here He's always been very
11 very very protective of the Moore name and
12
the integrity of the company and he didn't --
13
anything that our name went on he wanted to make
14
sure it was made a right way a certain way and the
15
quality So I have never seen anything -- until
16 recently they started to rebrand some sundry items
17
But that there was never anything in the
18 organization where there was any rebranding of paint
19 or anything like that
20
Q. Okay And what do you mean by the
21 rebranding of some sundry items
22
A. Roller covers is an example Roller
23
covers there might be some out in the stores now
24
that have Moore name on the wrapper but it's
25
cover that we buy from somebody else

16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 22 25
exactly but it was -- it was a -- a fairly limited
line
Q. Were they the joint compounds or textures A. They were joint compounds and textures
yes sir
7
Q. And were those some of the
containing products that the Paco Textures
had made at one time
|
A. Yes sir Q. Do you know which ones under the Paco
lines were the same ones that were rebranded for
Georgia Pacific A. actually don't recall off the top of my
head I would have to go back to my notes and take
a look at that but I -- my assumption would be it would have been the -- the better moving items but can't tell you exactly which ones they are off the
top of my head
Q. Okay And just off the top of your head
what were the better moving products
A. Oh the textures and the Ready Mix Joint
Compound Q. Okay Do you know whether or not there
still exist any copies of the rebranding agreements that were in place in that '68 to '71 time frame
Page 73
t
Q. Okay And what's a roller cover Talking
2 about paint rollers
3
A. Rollers -- yeah I'm sorry paint roller
4
cover you put on a handle and paint the walls
5
Q. The replacement rollers for the trays
6
A. Yes
7
Q. Okay Okay The truckline company is
8 that something that still is in the organization
9 Pacific Trucklines
10
A. That was dissolved a few years ago in
11
California but we still own our truckline here in
12
- in Hurst
13
Q. Okay The truckline in Hurst is that
14
also a Pacific or is that another brand
15
A. It's not called that sir but I -- I
16
can't tell you under what classification it goes by
17
Q. Is that wholly owned by Moore
18
A. Yes sir
19
Q. Does it do any distribution of product
20 lines for any -- anyone other than Moore
21
A. No sir
22
Q. Okay The Drywall Tape Company is that
323 still in existence
323
A. No. Not Moore
323

or sold it
123
A. I can't answer that
3
Q. Okay
4
A. I shouldn't say I can't answer I don't
5 know
6
Q. Don't know Okay If we go on through
7 the brochure it starts talking about setting up
8 _ what they call a -- I am trying to remember the
9
name Retail -- it looked like little mini Home
10 Depots
11
A. Home improvement
12
Q. Home improvement centers
13
A. Right
14
Q. When did Moore get in the home
15 improvement centers and do they still have any
16
A. We're no longer if that business It goes
17 _ back I believe to the early sixties We acquired
18 couple large facilities and made home improvement
19 centers out of them where they sold paint and
20 gardening and that type of thing
21
Q. So they would have sold not only
22 ~~ Moore products there but products from other
23 vendors
24
A. The paint that was sold through those
25 outlets was Moore paint
:
A. Yeah We bought a clutch company
primarily because -- as I understand it the
3 clutches that were -- this company manufactured were clutches that we were able to use on some equipment
spray equipment that we were also making
9 Q. Was that the Sprayline product line A. Yes sir
Q. Okay We will talk about that in a
minute
10
A. And so they bought this clutch company
Now -- and I just learned something today It was
originally in Van Nuys so that explains the Van
Nuys subsidiary
Okay
A. The clutch company was moved to Ontario Canada
17
No. Ontario California
Okay
19
So --
Was that still in operation --
21 They started it then
I'm sorry Is that still in operation
Q.222
No.
What happened to it
2222 Q. We sold it
Page 75
-23
Q. Okay
-23
A. The other products would have been
-23 numerous suppliers from other companies yes
4
Q. Okay And if this picture -- it's kind of
5 grainy but it looks like they're selling lamps and
6 lights and flowers and all kind of stuff
7
A. Correct
8
Q. Okay So this would be like just a
9 smaller version of I guess a Home Depot or Lowe's
10 or something today
11
A. Actually I'd like to classify this as the
12 beginning of Home Depot because Mr. Moore had a -
13
quite a vision with this thing and -- this was the
14 early days of the home improvement centers
15
Q. And did he sell out those home improvement
16 _ lines or did they just close of their own accord
17
A. We just closed them down ..
18
Q. Was that an idea before its time
19
A. Actually it was -- worked very well until
20 the Home Depots and all those started to move into
21 the market then they made it real tough
22
Q. Okay This next talks about clutches and
23 brakes Do you know anything about Moore
122 being involved in manufacturing making or
25 distributing brake or clutch lines
Page 77 :
Q. Okay Do you know what types of those --
of clutches and brakes they made there What they
|
were used for
123 A. Primarily they were small clutches I can't really tell you exactly but they went on -- I
think some of them went on golf carts and some went
.
on equipment that type of thing
Q. Okay Did they manufacture the components
9 there at their facility Was this the manufacturing facility
11
A. I think it was more of anassembly where
you bought components from different people you
know and then sort of like a car assembly line
12 Q. Okay
A. Put them all together
12 Q. A lot of cars and trucks during this time
frame had asbestos clutches and brakes Do you know
whether or not this facility assembled
19 containing clutch pads or brake pads or
1720
anything of that nature
A. I can't answer that I really can't sir
21 Q. Do you know who would have been in charge
of running that facility during the time it was
2421 . open
25
A. really don't No. I can't tell -- help

1234n Is that facility still open
7
A. No.
7
Q. What happened to it
8
A. Sold probably or closed down
9
Q. Okay
10
A. Have to understand early on in the
11
company's existence we were involved with many
12
different types of businesses It was around 1982
13 when it was decided that we'd concentrate on paint
14
and so lot of these things then started to go by
15
the wayside And since then we have concentrated
16 solely on making paint I can't tell you what
17 happened to that particular
18
Q. Okay Then we have Pacific .
19
Trucklines That's the one I believe you have just
20 descrived for us
21
A. Yes

7
Q. We're having to read it sideways off the

10
Q. You're fine It talks about -- I think we
II
need to keep you square with the camera
12
MR HAZEN Yeah come back over
13
You're going to get out of camera focus
14
Q. By Mr. Coon -- diversifying into pottery
15 and ceramics industry with air floated clays as well 16 as oil well drilling muds Read that correct
17
A. Now I understand -- now I understand where
18 the ceramic people got some of their minerals for
19 the ceramic division
20
Q. They internalized everything at
21 ~~ Moore didn't they
2222
A. Yeah
2222
Q. Okay
2222
A. Mr. Moore was pretty sharp
25
Q. So in making the ceramics you acquired
Page 81
1
A. This is part of it This was equipment
2 that they -- this particular case manufactured
3 machines for the mixing of dry powder products with
4 water spraying them on
5
Q. Okay
6
A. Like to do with drywall
7
Q. Now what we have here under the
8 Moore drywall finishing equipment was that a
9 separate company or is that just one of the product
10 lines that Moore made under their same
11 corporate umbrella
12
A. This was one of the subsidiaries
13
Q. Okay
14
A. This would have been the subsidiary and I
15 noticed here it says Fresno California so that 16 would have been going back here to what you were
17 talking about --
18
Q. Okay
19
A. -- when you asked me about the
20 subsidiaries
21
Q. Sure Was that what was called the

A. No. We made --

Q. Did you sell the equipment
123vn
A. We made the equipment We didn't apply
5 it ;
6
Q. You were not applicators you just
7 sold the equipment to apply
8
A. That's correct to the best of my
9 knowledge
10
Q. This would have been equipment that you
11 would have used to apply the textures You could
12
blow the textures on and trowel it out the
the 13 spackles and stuff like that for
14 the walls
ceilings and
15
A. Correct
16
Q. Would this have been something that would
17 have been sold to contractors or individual folks
18 who wanted to try to do it -- do repair jobs or
19 renovation jobs on their homes or what
20
MR HAZEN Objection form
21
A. I would not think that this type of
22 equipment would go to the normal consumer This
23 type of equipment would have to be handled by a

that's -- that's his or her livelihood on a daily

A. --- where it says the tape company
Q. Sure A. This is the rolls of tape -Q. Okay
process A. -- in the
Q. Thisis a grainy picture but this actually shows us and thisis stamped KM BB 5696
I don't see the actual page on here A. Yeah
Q. But it shows I guess a lot of rolls of
flat tape A. Yeah if it hadn't been for this I would
have thought it would have been rolls of cheese Q. Yeah A. It says Electronic process spark punches
tiny holes in the tape Q. Okay A. So that would be the tape process Q. These were the tapes that were used to
float the sheetrock out
A. Yes sir Q. Did Moore have for the heavy industrial users or large commercial users a -- a
Page 83
12
basis I would --
2
Q. By Mr. Coon So it would have been
3 drywall contractors principally
4
A. Yes
large S
Q. Okay I assume
6 contractors
and small
7
A. I would say so yes
8
Q. Do you know whether or not that type of
9 equipment was ever available for lease at any of
10 your your retail shops that someone went in and bought
11
your texture to -- to do their house they could
12 rent the equipment from you there to apply it
13 themselves
14 15 16 17 18 19 20 72223 72223 72223
72223 ~~
72223
A. I can't say that that ever -- that did or
did not happen I do not recall Knowing the
company's philosophy about renting equipment up
guess until recently I would -- my
guess would be no
would be no My
Q. Okay A. But I can't swear to it sir
Q. Okay Next we have Moore and The Drywall Industry and wanted to talk about there ONE it shows some stacks of something The photo is not
particularly good
A. Oh thisis the tape We go back to the
Page 85 i
12 wholesale distribution system that bypassed the
2 retail shops
3
A. Let me make sure I understand your
4 question Are you asking did we distribute product
5 _ other than through our own stores
Directly 6
Q. Yes sir
7
A. No.
to end users
8
Q. Okay Say am a -- hypothetically am
9 a drywall contractor in Houston Texas
10
A. Okay
11
Q. I do lot of drywall business and I want
12 to get a better deal Could I call Moore and
13 _ say I want to do big volumes of business with you
14 guys but I want you to cut me a deal and ship
15 it straight to me Do you ever do anything like
16
that
17
A. No.
18
Q. Could you have the commercial users that
19 would buy in volume go to a retail store and get
20 more what you would call a wholesale or discount
21 price volume pricing
22
A. Everything went through the stores
23
Q. But could you get volume pricing if you
24 were a large customer
25
A. Oh yes
NELL MCCALLUM & ASSOCIATES INC 713 861-0203
22 Pages 82 to 85 00045a4bdea7
Page 86
12345
Q. Okay So each of the retail shops you
12345 have told us about could have different pricing
12345 schedules dependent upon the individual customer
12345 issues
12345
A. That is correct
6
Q. Were those all fixed prices that were set
7
in criteria by upper management or were the
8
individual retail stores allowed to negotiate the
9
various rates based on the volume of the demand
10
A. can only tell you what I know since I
11
have been the company The price schedules are
12 preprinted and they're set and you have to work
13
off of those schedules
14
Q. So you can have a -- your regular retail
15 if somebody wants to come in and just buy one gallon
16 of paint or one bucket of this or that you have got
17
the retail price and if a guy wants to come in and
18 buy a thousand gallons of paint because he's a
19 commercial painter or a commercial drywaller he
20 = can get a fixed -
21
A. He would get a different schedule
22
Q. Get different scheduled price
23
A. Right That's correct
323
Q. Okay Is that pretty much how
25 Williams operates as well
Page 88 |
1 departments something like that
4
23
A. We have a quality control department
F
23
Q. Where was quality control at

A. 1-
:
6
Q. By Mr. Coon They have more --
N
7
A. I need to understand what you mean by
r
8 quality control We may be talking about two
;
9 different things
10
Q. We may be You tell me what kind of
11 quality control place you had
12
A. Okay Every plant has a quality control
13
lab so that when they make a batch of paint and I
14
am going to have to use paint because that's
15 basically what we look at today
16
Q. All right
17
A. Every batch some of that is taken out of
18
the batch taken back to the lab and evaluated to
19 make sure it was made according to specification
20
It's brushed out It goes into a various ovens
21
that type of thing
22
Once that's done once the quality control lab
23
releases the product then that batch can be filled
23 It's put in cans and then put in the warehouse
25
Q. Okay With respect to a facility like the
Page 87
~~
A. They used to I can't tell you how they
~~ operate today sir
3
Q. Okay This photo talks about Moore
4 paint company and it said Trilite Corporation Do 5 you know what the Trilite Corporation was
6
A. Yeah that's in Houston It was in
7 Houston They made aggregate for texture paints
8 It was perlite vermiculite that type of thing
9
Q. Okay Vermiculite where did the
;
10 vermiculite come from
11
A. Africa
12
Q. Do you know whether or not the vermiculite
13 had asbestos in it
14
A. can't answer that I would -- I know
15 that vermiculite that they were buying at the time
16
came from Africa but I can't tell you what the
17 composition of it was
18
Q. Okay Did - did Moore have anybody
19 that was in -- a lab I guess in a lab position
20 where they would actually analyze the products that
21 they were buying the raw ingredients to meet
22 specifications to determine whether or not there
23 were contaminants things like that
24
MR HAZEN Objection form
25
Q. By Mr. Coon Quality control
Page 89 a
1234 Trilite Corporation here would there have been a 1234 quality control at that facility for the raw 1234 ingredients that were coming in vermiculite and
1234 aggregate
S
A. They would had to have some kind of a
6 quality control before they resold it to somebody
7 to make sure that it met certain specifications
8
Q. Okay
9
A. How it works when the stuff comes in
10
Q. Yes sir
11
A. We rely on the manufacturer of the
12 material to supply to us all the data relevant to
13
that raw material so that's the information we use
14 to basically determine what kind of product it is
;
15
Q. Okay Do you know what years vermiculite
16 was ordered for this particular facility
17
A. I was afraid you were going to ask me
18
that have to go back to my notes am going to
19
have to -- I really don't recall It would had to
20 have been in the sixties but I really can't give
21
you an exact year sir
22
Q. Was this Houston facility where they
1223 actually manufactured that product
1223
A. No they brought it in and then did
25 processing of the product somehow to get it in the
NELL MCCALLUM & ASSOCIATES INC 713 861-0203
23 Pages 86 to 89 36766920-761c
Page 90
1 form that they could repackage it and then resell
it
3 Q. Okay I am not quite getting the picture We got the Houston facility It's called the
Moore Paint Company Trilite Corporation and
S is Trilite a subsidiary of Moore or is that
just a combined name they have just on that
-
manufacturing facility or what
A. Well Trilite was a company that they
1010
purchased down there Why they put Moore
11
paint company name on it is -- is beyond me It was
12 Trilite That's all they handled was the vermiculite and the perlite that went into texture
14 coatings
Q. Okay And -- maybe I don't have a good
16 understanding of what that company actually did Did
they actually sell a paint that had vermiculite in
1618
it at that facility
1919
A. No.
-
20
- Q. Is that what they made
21
A. No. They sold the vermiculite and the
perlite to the company itself for use in drywall
2 2 products as well as other companies were buying it
2 2 to put into their products
2 225
Q. Okay So this was a facility that not

1 acquiring that same vermiculite after it had been
2 processed at this Trilite Corporation in Houston . A. can't answer that I don't know who
else bought it from us
4 Q. How would we go about finding out who the other customers of that facility would have been MR HAZEN Objection form
9 Q. By Mr. Coon Are there -- do you know if _ there were records that are kept Let me back up Is the store still there A. No. It wasn't never a store I don't know
why -- as I say I don't know why the name Moore Paint Company is on it because to the
_
best of my knowledge it was never a store Q. So they did not sell out of that facility
it was distributed elsewhere A. Did not sell paint out of that facility
. Did sell resell the vermiculite and the perlite out of that facility
Q. Could you have walked into that facility in Houston and bought a bag of vermiculite that had been processed at that plant
MR HAZEN Objection form
A. Could I as a consumer
Q. By Mr. Coon Yes sir
Page 91
only bought the raw ingredients say the vermiculite
123
from where Africa
A. Vermiculite came from Africa
4
Q. Okay So they would buy the vermiculite
123 from Africa It would come into this Trilite _ Corporation facility in Houstoannd once there it would go somewhere else within Moore for use
in their products
A. Yeah It would be washed or whatever and
then put in a content that would go into the Moore products or it could be sold to a --
another person who was using --
Q. Okay
A. -- making similar products Q. First of all what product lines do you believe Moore was making during this time
frame where you would have had vermiculite as one of
the ingredients
A. It would have had to have been the texture
products Q. Okay The Paco lines
A. Yes sir
Q. Okay And what other companies outside of the Moore Corporation or structure or
family however you want to call it would have been
Page 93 i
123
A. I -- doubt it
Q. Okay You believe they sold mostly to
123 other manufacturers
A. Yes sir
5123 Q. So we don't -- you don't -- you did not anticipate or did not -- you're not aware of customer -- end user customers going in and buying
the -- the product there at the factory A. - Anything is possible but I mean that --
that stuff is processeidn bulk you know --
Q. Okay A. M in big bags and I mean for the average
person that would walk in off the street you know
Q. Wouldn't typically have a need for it
A. Huh
Q. Unless they were in the business of taking it and using it in larger fashion like Moore
A. My guesses are it was strictly in bulk to
-- to other end users
Q. When this vermiculite was processed at this particular facility do you know how it was
that it got to the Paco facilities where it was actually made blended into the textures I mean
was it bagged up there and then shipped on one of
the Pacific Trucklines or --

A. Well Pacific was a truckline in
123 California only
3
Q. Okay
4
A. Okay This was in Texas
5
Q. You're talking about a Houston truckline
6
A. Yeah we have a truckline out of Hurst
7
that time -- it would be speculation It could
8
have come --
9
Q. All right
10
A. = either with a truck going down there
11
and picking it up or it could have been shipped by
12
common carrier from there to -- to one of the
13
facilities
14
Q. Okay Do you know what happened to that
15 facility
16
A. No. I do not
17
Q. Is the building still there Do you know
18 if they sold the building or kept the building
19
A. have no idea
272227
Q. Or the buildingis torn down Do you know
272227 where the street location of that facility was
272227
A. I oh have heard it It's on the
272227
south end of Houston That's all I know I may -
272227 ~ _I could find that but I don't know it off the top 272227 = of my head

MR HAZEN Objection form
;
9
A. The repository in San Carlos there was
H
10 about 88 boxes there of different information that
11
was all accumulated relevant to asbestos I have --
12 and I have gone through those but I don't remember 13 seeing anything in there that addressed it 14 addressed Trilite individually Maybe there could
15 be something in those boxes that I missed Other
16
than that I have no idea where the material --
17
where the information could be
18
Q. By Mr. Coon Do you know why it was that
19 there was a decision made for Moore to import
20
the vermiculite and wash it or do whatever you were
21 describing processing there to use it in its
2223 ingredients as opposed to buying it from vendors as
2223
had been done at some point in time
2223
A. My understanding of the reason of buying
25
it from Africa at the time was that it was the
Page 95
Page 97 &
12345
Q. Okay Do you know if the actual facility
12345 and the land there is still there
12345
A. I would assume the land is I can't tell
12345 you about the facility
12345
Q. Let's hope the land is still there anyway
6
A. Yeah
7
Q. But dece but I am just saying the integrity
8 of the complex the original property whatever 9 vacant land was there and the building if that's
10 a_ll still there If it's all been torn down
11 something has been built on top of it
12
A. I can't answer that
13
Q. Okay
14
A. can't answer that .
15
Q. So you don't know if you could go down
16 there and see anything that looks anything like the
17 photo there now
18
A. No I could not
19
Q. Okay Who would know more about that at
20 = Moore now
22222
MR HAZEN Objection form
22222
A. really don't know The --
22222
Q. By Mr. Coon Were the --
22222
A. Some of the employees the old timers
22222 may but that goes back quite awhile
1
better quality and it was a prime source not only
2 for Moore to get it there but other companies
3 as well and that's my understanding of why it was
4 Africa
S
Q. Do you know how it was shipped to this
6 facility Was it in cargo containers off of ships
7
-- --
8
A. That would be an assumption I can't
9
answer that sir
10
Q. Any idea of the type of volume of raw
11 material that went through the facility year to
12 year
13
A. have not researched that
14
Q. Do you know what years that facility was
15
open doing the vermiculite process you have :
16 described
17
A. I wanted to say early sixties but again
18
I'd have to go back and research the dates That
f
19
was a short -- from my recollection that was a
20 short operation
i
21
Q. Okay
Ee
22
A. So
4
23
Q. Did the -- when this facility closed
24
where did the vermiculite come from that was still
25 being used in the product lines

MR HAZEN Objection
2
Q. By Mr. Coon Or was vermiculite still
3 being used in the product lines
4
MR HAZEN Objection form
5
A. This facility was sold The busineswass _
6 sold to someone in Arkansas Pine Bluff I believe
7 somewhere like that And the business was sold to
8 them and then we - the company in turn was then
9 buying I believe from them
10
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay So you sold this
11 facility to someone else They continued to do the
12 same thing that Moore had done while they
13 owned it and you continued to buy the same
14 product from them
15
A. We didn't sell them the facility We sold
16 them the business rights to the material
17
Q. Okay
18
A. And I think everything was transferred to
19 Arkansas
20
Q. And you kept the building and just
21 leased it back leased the premises to them
22
A. have no idea sir
23
Q. Okay
24
A. No idea
25
Q. Again anybody that you know of that would
Page 100 4
12345
Q. The vermiculite that was used from this
12345 facility you understood it to have gone into the -
12345 Paco lines the textures joint compounds
12345
A. I believe some of that material went into
5 the Paco lines that is correct
6
Q. Okay And we also understand that
7 asbestos was used at some point in time in those
8 product lines
9
A. Asbestos was an ingredient in the Paco
10 products yes sir
11
Q. Okay Do you know if under the
12 specifications they were using both the vermiculite
13 from this facility as well as asbestos from other
14 facilities in their texture and joint compounds at
15
the same time
16
A. I can't answer that
17
Q. Okay Do you know if the asbestos became
18 replacement or substitute for the vermiculite in
19 the products at some point
ae
20
A. couldn't have Asbestos and the
21 vermiculite are two different types of elements that
22 you're dealing with Asbestos is a very thin fiber 23 The vermiculite would have been puffy little things
24 that you put in to give it texture a roughness
25
Q. Okay Do you know how long it was that
Page 99
123 be more familiar with that business transaction
123
A. Off the top of my head it would be -- I
123 - I whatever tell you would be an assumption and I
4 would rather not do that
S
Q. Okay
6
A. But it goes back 40 some years so --
7
Q. Okay Yeah we're talking about something
8 that transpired in the sixties correct
9
A. Yeah
10
Q. Who was the head of -- who had your title
11 at Moore in the sixties that would have been
12 likely to have overseen some aspects of those
13 operations
14
A. You talking about president
,
15
Q. Yes sir
16
A. Of this division Well we never had one
17 before I was the first So I don't know how they
18 would have been managed When we go back to the
19 chart it's been helpful It's not even on here
20
but I would assume it looks like it was -- whoever
22222 it was running it reported directly to the president
22222 at the time which would have been Mr. Moore So
22222
can't answer your question
22222
Q. Okay
22222
A. Wish I could I can't

the vermiculite from that facility that we have been
talking about was used in the Paco product lines A. No. Again I'd have to go back to the
dates and again I have no idea at what time this thing totally shut down or how long it was in business I just can't answer that sir
Q. Okay MR HAZEN Hey Brent we're at

Q. By Mr. Coon Mr. Giffins when we left
19 off the break we were looking through the
20 brochure I think page 5698 Bates stamp I wanted
21 to ask you a few additional questions regarding the 22 - we talked about the Trilite plant The next one
23 under here talks about the joint cement production
22 of Moore in the Dallas factory Could you 25 tell us about that facility please sir

1
A. My my involvement with the Dallas --- my
2 knowledge of the Dallas factory would only have been
3 that it was originally Hanna They obviously were
4 making some joint compound which I was not aware of
S ~
6
7 } 8
9
10
But the -- that was the factory that was basically I think separate from Hurst and then we opened
Hurst in 1970
Q. Was that located on the -- generally the same premises as your Hurst facility
A. No that would have been here in Dallas
11
Q. Okay And you had thought before that was
12 principally a paint manufacturer that you had
13 acquired the Hanna facility
14
A. Yes sir
15
Q. But in -- in reviewing -- I'm trying to
16 find out did reviewing this literature make you
17
aware that they also made textures or did you
18 already know that and just had not remembered it
19
A. Somehow I missed this I thought the
20 Hanna deal was strictly Hanna Paint Company and
21
that the -- if any joint compounds were made it
22 would have been made in that factory when we bought
23 them before moving into the Hurst in '70
22
Q. Okay And when was that -- Hanna
25 acquired Was that '63
Page 104 |
1
Q. Okay I take it you still don't have any
;
2 personal knowledge with respect to whether or not
H
3 the Hanna facility made the same joint cements
f
:
4 _ before Moore acquired them
5
A. do not sir
6
Q. Okay Do you know how long that facility
7 had been in operation prior to the time Moore
8 acquired it in '63
9
A. do not
10
Q. Do you know who the ownership was at the
11 time of acquisition
12
A. do not
13
Q. Would there be archived records with
14 respect to the identity of the personnel from that
15 facility
16
A. Well there has obviously got to be some
17 paperwork somewhere or it's since disappeared you
18
know or gone But I can't answer that I don't --
19
Q. If take it you -- do you know whether
20
or not the -- the texture materials that were made
21
there would have been the same type of basic
22 composition as the Paco lines
23
A. What do you mean same composition
24
Q. Same ingredients
25
A. Well if there -- first of all if there
Page 103
123
A. I think it was '63
123
Q. So if the facility was acquired in '63
123 it's apparent from this brochure that they made
4 joint compounds at the Dallas facility and I am
5 trying to find out if you know if it was something
6 _ they were already making when you bought the plant
7 or it was something that Moore continued to
8 make at that plant after they acquired it in '63
9
A. do not know
10
Q. Okay
11
A. do not know
12
Q. Do you know whether or not they made any
13
of the Paco lines there post '63
'
14
A. Well it says joint cement production so
15 I'm am assuming that probably they would have
16
Q. Would there be any other records from that
17 facility that were retained in a repository or
18 something for Moore to go back and look to see
19 what -- exactly what type ofjoint compounds or
20 _ joint cements or texturing cements were made out at
21
that plant and what the name of the products were
22
A. Again I think any records like I
23 mentioned earlier that would be available would be
24
part of the repository the eighty some boxes that
25
are listed there

were stuff made there prior to Paco the products were pretty similar A lot of the competitive products were fairly similar So if the composition the basic composition may have been similar but how they were put together and the amount of raw material might could have been
different from supplier to supplier Q. Do you know what type of trade name the
Hanna facility operated under Do they have different identifying trademarks --
A. My knowledge --
Q. -- for their products A. -- is that it was Hanna Paint Company and that's how they identified their -- their material
as well
Q. Was it just called Hanna paints
A. Hanna right Q. Do you know -- I take it you don't know if they made the textures before Moore bought it A. I can't answer that sir Q. So you do not know if there was a Hanna
texturing compounds or joint compounds product line
A. No do not Q. Do you know if the facility that was acquired there was one that was a manufacturing
NELL MCCALLUM & ASSOCIATES INC 713 861-0203
27 Pages 102 to 105 36766920-761c
Page 106
facility where they actually manufactured the
1234 product there A. When we bought Hanna there was a plant
41234 because they were making their own paint Q. And what happened to that facility ?. A. have no idea
Q. Do you know if it was sold if there's still manufacturing processing there if the
9
10
11
building is still there
A. I can't answer that I am not even sure I know where it is but it was -- it was somewhere
12
here in Dallas
13
Q. To your knowledge were any joint
14 compounds or texturing compounds sold by Moore
15 after the acquisition of Hanna under names other
16 than the Paco line
17
A. At -- after the acquisition of Hanna
18
Q. Yes sir
19
A. Sold where
20
Q. Anywhere
22222
A. Well we got into the business in '60
22222
Q. Right With Paco
22222
A. So -- with Paco So yes if -- I mean we
22222
-- we would have sold Paco after we would have
25 been selling Paco at the time we bought Hanna
Page 108
1 if we go through some more pages of this real
2 quickly it talks about diversifying moving expanding geographically Do you know about -- The Yourself Trade Here is a section The
9 Professional Side Talks about some of the control aspects I think talks about their quality control A. Yeah this Q. I think it's talking about maybe dealing with professional contractors here A. huh Q. Or have I missed it Is that what this is
discussing A. No it's primarily talking that the stores
are set up as a full service center for the painting
contractor
Q. Okay Real briefly on that subject
matter you had a lot of retail stores where an .
individual customer such as you orI could go in to
buy some paint or texturing compound correct MR HAZEN Objection form
A. Well stores are open for anybody to come
'
in and buy from us sure Q. By Mr. Coon Sure So I could just
drive my car down -- say this is 1965 I could have
Page 107
12
Q. Sure But do you know whether or not
there were other names on any of the joint
3 compounds or texturing material sold by Moore other than the Paco line
A. do not know I have not seen anything
6 directly that says that we did but again prior to 1960 before we got into that business there was material out there on the market Now whether in
9 fact Moore was buying somebody else's ~
10 material I don't know that but prior to 1960
11 before we got into it it could have been
12
Q. Well that was another thing I wanted to
a 13 ask you little more about later with respect to
14 rebranding as it relates to texturing materials but
15 since you brought it up do you know whether or not
16 Moore sold any of the products like joint
1.7 compounds and texture materials before '60 under
18
either their name or under another vendor's name at
19 _ their stores
20
A. am not aware The only one I -- only
21
one that I am aware of that was sold under a
22 different brand name was that Georgia Pacific that I
23 = mentioned to you
24
Q. we thumb briefly through the rest of
25 the brochure it's a pretty extensive brochure but
Page 109
drove my car down to one of your local retail shops
and bought a gallon of paint or a bucket or a bag
of texturing compound
A. You you could do that You could do
that
8 Q. Just as an individual customer A. The only difference is the paint is packaged in a way that the individual customer could have purchased it and used it effectively The drywall material was packaged in large pound bags which the normal consumer retail like you and I would not normally have purchased in that quantity because they wouldn't have ever used that much
Q. Okay What sizes of the Paco containers were there with the different texturing compounds
and joint compounds MR HAZEN Objection form
A. There were bags pound bags pound bags in the dries and then the premix there were what you might call gallon sizes and there were four gallon sizes as far as the quantities
Q. By Mr. Coon Did the gallons come in can or a plastic container
A. The gallons came in like a

cardboard thing Q. Okay Now if we looked at the brochure
apparently there was some degree of effort by Moore to sell to the contracting trades
A. Big effort Q. right And that would have been small
contractors and big contractors any contractors
A. The company's philosophy has always been directed toward the painting contractor And any
retail business that we do is just what basically
would have happened just from the store being there but the emphasis was on the painting contractor
Q. When they acquired the Paco lines do you
know if there was any additional efforts to capture
I a portion of the drywall contractor business
A. From what -- what I have read and the
only way I can answer that sir is to tell you the
basis of why that type of business appealed to the company at that time is back in the sixties people were - a lot of painting contractors were also doing drywall and it seemed to be a natural tie to have that available to our painting contractors
since again we were primarily in the contractor
wholesale business it seemed like a natural tie
to have joint compounds
Page 112 2
A. That is correct
3 Q. Was the San Carlos factory the main production facility for the Paco texture lines for the West Coast
A. Yes it was
6 Q. Where were the other Paco manufacturing
facilities located
MR HAZEN Objection form A. What -- at what time frame are you talking
10 about Q. By Mr. Coon Okay Well let's go back
11 to -- first let's just finish this brochure I don't think there is hardly anything else we need to really discuss It talks about sales Okay 1 think that covers that basically
14 Let's talk specifically then about the Paco
17 product line Moore acquired that facility in
what Was it 1960
A. That's correct
16 Q. And it was acquisitioned out of 125 previously operating facility
A. It was acquisitioned from a gentleman by
the name of Cliff Woodland yes sir
Q. And when Moore bought out this
what were -- let me back up What was the company
Page 111
Q. So I understand at that time frame most of the contractors or a large portion of the
123 contractors you dealt with in the painting sector
4 were also the same contractors that were putting the 5 sheetrock up and taping it and floating it and then
6 painting it A. During those days that's basically --
9 they did both a lot of them did both Q. Okay So it made sense to have the texturing compound the product lines there along with the paint since you were already targeting the painting contractors in various communities A. It's my understanding yes Q. think this -- this -- there are several pages of discussion about contractors and selling to contractors and -- okay Then we have a couple of photographs here that show the Paco textures and home improvement and M paint lines Is this at
the California facility
A. Yes it is Q. That's at San Carlos
A. Yes
Q. And it appears from the way these were written on top of the buildings that all of these
different facilities were all in the same compound
Page 113 3
name of the company you bought
Paco
Okay It was already named Paco That is correct
12 Q. How long had Paco been in business Two years So they started in 58 '58 And what were the product lines that they
manufactured
A. At that time they were primarily manufacturing the dry joint compounds
Q. And what was the market for the dry joint
compounds
A. Market as --
Q. Intended use A. To seal the -- to cover fill in the joints of drywall and make the drywall appear
smooth so that you have a continuous wall
Q. Part of the taping and floating
--
procedure
A. Yes sir
Q. is that you're engaged with drywall or
sheetrock
A. Yes

Q. And understood the desire by Moore to acquire this facility was because of
this hand philosophy of painting contractors
and drywall contractors
A. It's my understanding that it was -- at that time that was part of the reason for doing
that yes
123 Q. And at the time this facility was acquired where were their operating facilities and .
9 manufacturing facilities located
11
A. Whose Moore's or --
12
Q. Paco's
A. Paco's Paco's was in Richmond
13
California
Q. And was that their operating facility or
15 manufacturing or both
A. That was both to my understanding
17 Q. Did they have any other facilities
1619
A. No not that I'm aware of
Q. Did they have a distribution system A. Not can't answer that sir I
2 32 don't know
.
Q. After the facility was acquired in 1960 what type of expansion took place within that
division
Page 116 i
A. assume to provide better facilities
123456 Q. Was it a bigger facility or more efficient or better geographic location A. wasn't -- I wasn't part of the -- around at that time so anything I tell you would be an
123456 assumption Q. Okay What happened to the facility in
Richmond
A. I not know
Q. Was it still operating by some other entity Did somebody else buy it continue to make dry joint compound there
A. To the best of my knowledge no All that _ entire operation was moved into San Carlos
Q. Do you know if they actually moved the physical equipment from Richmond to San Carlos
A. It's my understanding they did Q. So they just picked up the plant and moved
|
it to another location
A. Correct
;
Q. And was it your understanding that in addition to moving the original equipment in
Richmond that they also expanded on the facility to
make either more of the product or different
products
Page 115
MR HAZEN Objection form
123 A. Within the Paco division Q. By Mr. Coon Yes sir
4
A. I don't know if there was any expansion
123 Maybe I am -- maybe I won't answer your -- your question correctly but when it was purchased in '60 we continued to operate it at that location up
through '64 and that material that drywall
material is what went into Moore stores in

that area that were serviced by >>

Q. Okay
A. -- that facility Q. Any idea of what type of volume of the dry
12 joint compound was produced each year those four
12 years
A. can't answer that sir
Moore Q. Do you know whether or not
1717 retains any records that would reflect the volume of
2019 manufacturing of those goods at that facility A. If there's records available they would
72222 be in that repository Q. And what happened in 1964
72 2 A. The Richmond facility was located -- was
moved to San Carlos
72 722 Q. And what was the reason for the move
Page 117 :
A. Well they didn't make anymore products
they just brought over what they were making
Q. Okay A. -- having never seen Richmond I can't
tell you if it was an expansion or not to be honest
with you .
Q. And how long did the San Carlos facility continue to operate from '64 until when
A. As far as making Paco ,
Q. Yes sir A. The -- they -- we finished -- we ceased making Paco in 1982. That was suspended -Q. Okay Now --
A. as a company
Q. Now when we're talking about Paco and ceasing production in '82 are we talking about the . the Paco dry joint compound or other product lines that they also manufactured at later days
A. I When talk about '82 that's when the
company decided to get out of the business so
whatever products they were making at the time everything was discontinued
Q. Okay
A. During the earlier period from 1964 on there were some product lines that were added to the

Page 118
1 Paco assortment but in '82 everything was
2 eliminated
3
Q. Okay So understand that from '60
4 to '64 the only product that was made at the
5 facility which was then located in Richmond was
6. \ called Paco dry joint compound
7
A. To the best of my knowledge it was the
8 joint compounds
9
Q. Okay And that was I believe an
10 containing material was it not
11
A. That is correct
12
Q. And then from '64 to '82 the facility
13 operated in its new location in San Carlos
14 = California
15
A. Correct
16
Q. And during that time frame not only did
17 they continue to make the dry joint compound for
18 some period of time but they also expanded into
19 some other product lines under the Paco name
20
A. Correct
21
Q. Okay And then in 1982 they quit making
22 anything under the Paco name or they shut down the
23 plant What did they do
22
A. We shut - all the Paco operations were
25 shut down throughout the company
14

-23
Q. Okay When did they start making paint
i
-23 there "
-23 A. We moved to that location in 1952 -- '56 y
4 I believe
5
Q. Okay
6
A. Now I -- don't hold me to it
7
Q. Okay So I better understand and you
8 probably said this earlier but when the Richmond
9 plant closed in '64 and moved to San Carlos they 10 moved to the same location where there was already
11 existing Moore paint facility
12
A. Yes sir
13
Q. Okay Now I understand So you already
14 had paint there and then you bring the texturing
15 in '64
16
A. Correct
17 Q. And then '82 you shut down the textur,ing
18 or all the Paco lines correct
19
A. Correct
20
Q. And you still have the paint product lines
21
that were there before '64 and after '82
22
A. Correct
222
Q. Okay Anything else other than the paint
222 ~~ lines
25
A. Anything -- where at that facility
Page 119
123
Q. Okay Did that shut down that whole
123 facility or was the facility in 1982 making things
123 other than the Paco product lines
4
A. Well as the map indicates that area was
5 also on the paint plant
6
Q. Okay So they expanded into Paco other
7 Paco product lines between '64 and '82 and also
8 other product lines other than Paco

14 '64 to '82 the San Carlos facility continued to
15 make Paco product lines of various sorts
16
A. Yes sir
17

22
Q. Just the same facility Not necessarily
23

A. We made paint
Page 121
123
Q. Yes sir
123
A. Well one of the home improvement centers
123
was there
4
Q. Okay And what years was the home
5 improvement center there
6
A. Oh I think that particular one started
7
around mid 70s and that was shut down in 19 --
8 around '87 '88
9
Q. And would they have sold their Paco
10 product lines right there at their home facility
11
A. believe they would have yes
I 12
Q. And take it their paints would be sold
13 there at the home improvement facility as well

Q. By Mr. Coon From the time you first acquired the Paco product lines in 1960 until the
present A. So it would be '60 through '82 I am just
123 trying to count them up in my head I'd there was probably about maybe 15 or 16 different product
lines
Q. Okay A. Now when I -- I'm sorry I got to clarify
that I don't think there were that many different
product lines because some of those products had two different -- some of them came in dry and some
of them came in wet so there may have been a couple
-- a few products where you had both dry and wet and that's what I am calling the total of 16 but in essence it could have been only one type of
product Q. Okay Let's -- let me show you what I
have We have been provided with the boxes that you
told us you looked at earlier
A. The six boxes that we gave you
Q. Yes sir Yes sir We- We- have looked at those and some folks in my office have looked at those and we tried to go through and sort some things out Let me show you what we have There

record The time is 1:39 p.m. May 31st 2002
Beginning of Tape 2 Q. By Mr. Coon Okay Mr. Giffins we
- have taken another brief break to go back and look
at some photographs and some additional charts that
you have in front of you And I want to first go
_
back as a matter of housekeeping and ask you before
the break about the different kinds of products that Moore had manufactured that at one point in
time had asbestos And you had identified a number
of them I think to try to make a rough
guesstimate This is what's identified as KM 1019 counsel
a also KM BB 6549. It was provided to us as list of
31 products Have you had an opportunity to look at
that
A. sheet
I don't recall having seen this particular am familiar with some of the products that
Page 123
are some photographs of a number of Paco -- what I believe to be Paco products If I could have you
identify these for us might have a few additional
questions of you
MR HAZEN Brent if you would as
you go through them would you read off for me the document number down on the hand side and that
way I can track them I won't have to look at them
MR COON Yes sir Although the
numbers that are on these are our identifying
numbers if that's okay with you MR HAZEN Okay So you've -- do
you mind I am going to come around and just take a
peek at them real quick
COON Yeah These may be ones
_.
-- am looking for what you had as the BB
numbers
MR HAZEN Right Did you go over
the BB numbers
MR COON These don't have -- no I
don't think so I don't think these had BB numbers which makes me wonder if these came out of the boxes
or not
;
MR HAZEN You want to go off the
record real quick
Page 125
12 are listed on here Yeah
Q. Okay The -- the first thing I wanted to
3 ask on there of the 31 products that were identified as containing asbestos how many of those
5 were under the Paco umbrella
126
Obviously a number of them are because they
_
actually had the Paco name but I don't know if all
of them are or some of them are
A. To the best of my knowledge they all
would have been They all would have been
Q. Okay So if we look at the list of the 31 there that are identified even if it doesn't say
Paco in front of it we believe it to be a Paco
product
A. Yeah the taping compound Yeah I'd have
to say that is true Yes
Q. Okay Do you have a recollection of Moore ever making any of those products under
any name other than the Paco umbrella
A. am not aware of that sir
Q. Okay So the only ones we would have in addition to this from what you recall would be the possibility of what was rebranded with Georgia Pacific at some point in time in the late 60s
early 70s

12 A. Could you ask me that question again
12 3 4 5 6 . 7 8 9 10
11 12 13 14
15
16 17 18 19 20 21 22 222
please
that we have
Q. Yes sir The only products
here that were Moore's containing
that would supplement this would be those
the
products rebranded through Georgia Pacific to
that were
recollection best of your
A. The Georgia Pacific products would have
have been sold through a Moore store
not
Q.
So
wouldn't have them on a list
Okay
you
those to be
like this anyway because you considered
separate because they were rebranded
A. That's correct
Q. Okay We next have -- let me ask you one
more question Of the list here does anything seem
to be inaccurate with respect to this list being
~ sone of those products that contained asbestos
In other words can you look at the list and
this one shouldn't be on there because I know say for a fact that one did not contain asbestos
A. What -- are you talking in -- from the time -- from the beginning to '60 through '82 Some
time frame some of these were converted to not
222 contain asbestos
222
Q. understand that Probably the -- first
Page 128 fs
4
:
1 Purpose Joint Compound
;
2
Q. Okay Was there a particular reason that
3 you would have big numbers 5515 on there Does
4 that have any particular significance significance
Sometimes 5
A. can't say that it would
6 contractors buy by numbers and they -- or they buy
7 by names and so it -- this probably was there more
8 convenience thing
9
Q. Okay
10
A. We do that with our paint
11
Q. Okay Do you know whether or not when
12 Moore acquired this product line if those
13 numbers were already there the bags looked similar
facility 14 to this at the time you acquired the
15
A. No do not I have not seen bags from
16 what they looked like when we bought Paco
17
Q. Okay So do you know whether or not there
18 was even a Paco -- Paco logo like that one on any of
19 the bags
20
A. -- don't know sir
21 Q. Do we know if the Paco logo existed in any
22 form like that prior to the acquisition by
23 Moore
22
A. do not know that
25
Q. Okay And we don't know if the 5515 there
Page 127
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14
15
16
17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25
is can you look at the list and say I know for
fact this product never had asbestos in it
A. can't say that Q. Okay Now we next have a number of what
believe to be photographs of various bags or containers of Paco product lines
A. I got it
marked KM 1025
Q. And I'll show you what are
through 1041 and there may be a couple of them
missing but there is a -- pretty much a package
here Are -- can you tell us and looking at --
let's just look at the first one there and actually
if
don't mind if we can just flip that around
anydosuhow it to the camera so we have got an idea of
what we're looking at
This says Paco Joint Compound and the Paco
would be the -- I guess the trade name for the
product
A. That's correct
Q. Okay Now we have a number on it for
is that one 5515. Is there any particular
identifications of that number Does that tell you
+ something
to that
A. No. That's the number assigned
particular product The product itself would be All
Page 129 Uf

222 222
means anything with respect to the ingredients or
anything like that A. Well that would be a product number It
has has nothing at all to do with the
ingredients Q. Okay And then it says joint compound
Now what would that product have generally been
used for A. That would have been used to seal the --
the basic joints
QA.. OAkndaythen you lay the tape on top and then
put finish coat on top of that
talked
Q. Is this the dry joint compound you
us earlier about A. This is the dry and -- the material in the
bag would be the dry correct
Q. And would that have come in the 25- and
pound bags
A. Correct
Q. And would this kind of be a -- for people
that have not -- can't readily put their -- picture
on what it would look like would it look kind of
like the bags of ready concrete you could buy from home improvement store that kind of bag
NELL MCCALLUM & ASSOCIATES INC 713 861-0203
36766920-761c 00045a4bc
Page 130
just a tear top
2 A. Yeah I guess you could say that Q. Okay Do you recall the colors of the 4 bags Kind of brown White
A. Sort of grocery store brown type thing in different colors depending at the time whatever the
6 bags were printed Q. Did Moore have a typical supplier of
9 the bags for the various joint compounds and
cements
A. To the best of my knowledge Saint Regis is the one that supplied the bags to the company
Q. And would Moore just tell them how they would want the bags logoed and stencilled
A. Moore would have influence on that but Saint Regis also since they had a staff of professionals that did this kind of thing I am sure
probably provided some input as well
Q. Okay Now if we look -- do you know when these photographs were taken
I have no idea
Okay
Q. When these were taken right here ,
Yes sir
I have no idea
Page 132
yes Q.
And then you may have some indentations in
the sheetrock where the nail was embedded into the
sheetrock A. The nails are countersunk That is
9 correct Q. Sure So you go back and you would take this mix it with the water to a make kind of a mud
or something that's -- has a composition kind of
10
like mud
A. Similar yes
11 Q. And then you would take a trowel or something and spread it over the cracks to fill in
'
all the cracks
A. Correct
i
1619 Q. And you would also fill it in over the indentions where the hammers knock the nails in to
18 . hold the wall -- the sheetrock up
19
A. Correct
Q. Okay
put 21
A. And then you
the tape on top of the
seam and then you put generally another coat on top
of that as a finishing coat Q. So if we looked at the rolls that you
2 2 showed us earlier the big rolls of paper that
Page 131
Q. Let's talk briefly about the next one We have a bag This one's 1026 this one says Paco Vinyl Joint Compound and it's got kind of a
striping pattern to it
123456 A. Right Q. What was that used for A. That was used for the same thing as the
All Purpose Joint -- but this could only have been used in joint compounds or doing joints This
10 could have been used doing a few other little
things such as you might want to use it as a -- as
10 top coat as well ' Q. Okay And the top coat for the Ladies
14 and Gentlemen of the Jury that are not familiar with
the drywall -- drywall processing what would that
15 be
A. Okay You have two pieces of drywall that
.
come together --
18 Q. Okay This would be like in your house if
1.7 you have a four by eight sheet of drywall what a lot of people just call sheetrock because of the popularity of that trade name but if you buy sheetrock or drywall and you put it up on the wall
132 132 and nail it up you got your cracks correct
1323
A. Where the two sheets butt up together
Page 133 i
would be the tape that would come out in pools and
3 you would just -- like giant rolls of -- I guess if you do something by analogy it would be like a -- a bathroom paper or something comes in a long roll
and you just pull it out off of the seam
.A You could It's a lot thicker than
bathroom paper It's a lot thicker
9
Q. Right And in bigger rolls but similar
analogy
A. Yes
10
Q. Okay And you peel out whatever you need
and tear it off You can tear it off by hand or
13 with your tool I suspect
A. Correct
15 Q. And then you put it over the crack and then you smooth out the paper with your trowel as
well
17 A. Correct Q. And then you have a finished surface to
23 work with correct A. And then you would put -- you put a top
coat on top of it Q. Okay Now what would be involved in
putting a top coat on
25
A. You would trowel that on like you would

713 861-0203
34 Pages 130 to 133
36766920-761c
Page 134
12
have troweled the base coat
12
Q. Okay And there are a lot of different
texturing 3 ways you can apply the sheetrock with your
4 compounds to give it different types of finishes for
S
ceilings and your walls You can have a lumpy
your
finish all kinds of
. 6
finish or you can have a wavy
7 different tools to leave different patterns in the
8 wall 9 A. Well that's different than the mud The 10 mud what we refer to as mud
_ 11
Q. Okay
12
A. The joint compound is what fills the
beds the tape and then goes on top of the
13 joints
do the texture the wall
14
the tape When you
15
texture that's a separate step That's -- that's
16 done after all this is done and it's a different
17 type of material
18
Q. Okay So in commercial or residential
19 application you put your boards up the studs the
20 wall frame and then you take the sheetrock or
21
drywall nail it up to the studs to have a solid
22 ~~ wall correct
23
A. Correct
24
Q. And then you would take the mixtures you
25 have described here and you fill in the cracks and
Page 136
123
Q. More three dimensional
123
A. Yes
123
Q. Okay Well let's talk about these other
and how they were used The next one you
4 products
This was Number 5525
5 have was the taping compound
6 That also came in pound and pound bags
7
A. Yes sir
8
Q. And what was it used for
A. It was also -- this was -- it gets a
:
9
days lot
:
a 10 little confusing There was in the early
of these There were many different types of
a
iq 11
This taping compound could also be used
12
products
the
compound It just performed a little
:
13 like joint
could all
Hy
__ 14 bit differently So these three products
: 15 have been used to do the same thing only they just
16 --this --this particular product may have performSeod aa :E
17 little bit differently than the All Purpose
18
lot of - some of this became preference to -- from
i
19
the contractor
20 Q. Did all three of those products basically
21 have the same ingredients
22
A. That -- if you're talking about
23 ingredients as far as raw materials
i
24
Q. Yes sir
: 25 A. They may have varied but they were t
ft
Page 135
Page 137 :

i 123
the nail indentions to get a finished surface to
123 work with
1
similar yes
2
Q. Did all three of those have asbestos as
E
3 one of the ingredients
; 123
A. Correct
4
Q. And from there you can either put some
5 other finishing touches on it or paint or whatever
6
A. You leave it the way it is and just
7 have the bare flat drywall which would look like
8
what we have in this room or then you can take and
9
put - or you could put a texture finish on it to
10 give it little bit of a texture and then paint it
il
Q. Okay And same with the ceilings a lot
12 of homes and commercial businesses would have the
13 drywall nailed to the ceiling as well to the
14 ceiling joists
15
A. Correct
Q. And you would do the same process fill
applied 16
fill in the flail holes and many
17 in the cracks
18 times the ceilings would have more of a textured
19 composition than the walls where they would do it
20 with brooms and all kinds of different ways to give
21 it patterns
powder 22
A. When you say more of a texture talking
222
about a more defined texture
222
Q. Sure

A. Yes .
Q. Okay Let's go next to 1029 looks like just some of the writing that's on one of the bags
A. Yeah
Q. So we will go to 1030 that is Wall Texture Okay Could you tell us about that one
A. It's got wall and ceiling texture on it
Do you need to see this Scott Q. And if we were to show this one if we
could hold it up it says again the Paco logo and
it's called Paco Wall Texture The other ones did not have Paco Was there something in
particular that would cause that one to have an
additional trade name on ? A. Well other than I think the Tex
to the fact that this was texture
Q. Okay
A. That's a yes
Q. Okay And then what was it used for A. The wall texture -- it's a dry The wall texture is used to give that sort of a
little bit of an effect on the wall and the ceiling
A. Yes

texture was the texture that went on the ceilings
123
Q. Okay That's the other bag next to it
123
that was --- says Paco Textures and then it says
4 Number 6373 Deco
5
A. Decorative ceiling texture
;
6
Q. Okay And was that pretty much the same
T kind of material as the wall texture material What
8 was different about it
9
A. had a different type of aggregate in
10 it It was little bit rougher --
11
Q. Okay
12
A. -- because you had a different finish
13
Q. Okay Gave it a -- an ability to have a
14
little more of a dimensional --

A. Yes
16
Q. - effect to it
17
A. huh
18
Q. Did it also come in pound bags
19
A. Yes
20
Q. It was a powder
122222
A. Yes
122222
Q. Dry powder mix it with water
122222
A. Yes
122222
Q. Stir it all up and use it
122222
A. Right
Page 140
12 compared to something you would have as a kitchen
2 blender just on a bigger scale
3
A. Yeah the equipment that we were looking
4 at earlier this morning --
5
Q. Okay
6
A. -- the Sprayline --
7
Q. Right
8
A. type material that was made to spray
9 the material on And what you would do it was
10 somehow -- and I haven't seen the equipment because
11 M that particular equipment but the powder goes
12 in the water goes in and then combines and it
13 squirts out
a 14
Q. Right And we talked about the Sprayline
15 products You could actually -- if you had lot of
16 this to do you would not want to do it by hand just
17 because of the labor costs So if you could spray
18 it on with equipment it might be more time -- time
19 saving
20
A. I -- I don't know if that's true because
21 professional who knows how to use this and if 22 it's used properly can go on rather quickly and
23 easily
22
Q. What would have been the benefits of using
25 the Sprayline equipment then

Q. How would these products typically be mixed with water We have gone through five or six different pound bags of this When you opened
them up they were really just full of the dry
ingredients
A. Correct
Q. The clays the cements and whatever the aggregates were the asbestos all of that was still in powder form kind of like a giant bag of flour
right
A. Correct
of Q. And if you -- and actually the bags are
kind of like big bags flour where you could tear
them open paper bag and you tear them open and then you would dump them in the buckets and add
water water
A. Yes sir Q. And then how would mix it up Just stir it up with a stick or whatever you had _ A. Whatever you had as to - had to mix it
through Q. For commercial applications where a lot of
this was used did the contractors many times have some sort of blending units or equipment mixing equipment Like giant blenders that you would --

A. If
2
Q. A different effect
3
A. No. You -- on the joint compounds you
so 4 really had to do that by hand The spray was more
5 applicable to the texture when you're doing this 6 whole room you have gone through and done the --
7
Q. You have taped and floated
8
A. You have done all that which is basically
9 mostly done by hand although there were -- there
10 was some mechanical equipment that would help put
11
the tape on with the -a with the bedding But when
12 you get to the texturing you're doing large 13 expansive areas and that's where the machines came

handy
a
Q. Okay Now you had machine that would
-- once all of this was mixed you opened up these
bags and mixed them with water and got them all stirred up Then you could have the machines spray
19 | 20
21 22 23
it out for you
A. huh
Q. Did the machine also mix it up for you Could you dump the pound bags into some hopper on the machine and add water when you do that

So
think it was a step piece of

Q.
you
mix it and then

would blend it into

8 mud and ready to go

A. My recollection you could do it both
People would do that mix it and put it in
10 ways
and you do it by
11
some type of a hopper small one
12 hand
13
Q. Okay
where
dumped it in

A. Or you had machines
you

Q. -- Quik
15
A. -- Quik yes
16 MR HAZEN Number Brent
17 MR COON This is 1033
18
Q. By Mr. Coon And what are we talking
19 about with Paco Quik Joint Compound
20
A. What's -- what is the product precisely
21
Q. Yes sir
22
A. The Quik Joint did the same thing as
1223 the other joint compounds did the only thing is
1223
this dried a lot faster This was more like a
25 plaster thing and there were three different
Page 143
N2
Q. Okay This is in a box So we got a
N2 little bit different shape to it
3
A. Yeah I am trying to find you a better
4 picture
S
Q. And on the side of the box it says
6 liquid do not drop protect from freezing
7 Did read that correct
8
A. Yes
9
Q. Okay So what you have there is the
10 containers that would be sold by Moore that
11 had already taken the dry powder that we've talked
12 about in these pound bags and mixed it up with
13 the water so it's ready to go
.
14
A. Correct
powder 15
Q. Okay And would it still have the same
16 purposes for use as the ones that came in the
17 form
18 19 . 20 21 22 23 24 25
A. Yes sir Q. What would be the reasons that you would have some of your contractors or customers wanting
it in ready form A. That's really a preference by the
contractor It's a matter of convenience in that you don't have to go out and have a supply of water new construction You just open it and you're
Page 145
1 variations speed at which it would dry Then this
a 2 primarily was not meant to go and do a house or a
3 room with because it dries quickly It's little 4 bit different type of product This is more for
5 smaller job
6
Q. And this also came in the 25- and pound
7 bags
8
A. know it came in 25 I'd have to go back
9 and refresh my memory if it came in anything bigger
10
Q. And did it essentially contain the same
11 ingredients with the exception of something that was
12 more of a drying additive
;
13
A. No I believe this was compositioned a
14 little bit differently because of its Quik
15 characteristics
16
Q. Okay
material 17
A. A normal contractor with this
18
had habit -- stay wet for a while so they could
a 19 really work with it because it's done lot of it by
20 manual This on the other hand was more of a
21 concentrated smaller area
22
Q. And do you know if that one also contained
23 asbestos
22
A. It did

Q. By Mr. Coon Okay Next we have Paco Spray Texture Number 5580
MR HAZEN 1034
123 MR COON Yes sir 1034 Q. By Mr. Coon How does that one differ from the other ones A. This is a sand finish
9 Q. And what is sand finish A. I guess the only way I could explain it is you put some glue on the wall and you throw sand on it and that's -- it gives you a rougher
finish
Q. Okay A. Coarser finish Q. had a grittier finish --
A. Yes
-- or texture to it Was it because they
Q.
put sand or something in it A. I believe -- I can't answer -- I believe
so I don't know what the composition of this
particular was Q. Okay Did that also come in pound
powder form
A. Yes
Q. Asbestos a -- an ingredient in it
Page 148 &
out a lot easier as you trowel it on
Q. And what do we mean by less bodied A. don't know I guess it's like making a
cake You girls probably could help me
a You might have something that's little bit
more viscous than something else I mean it's
made the same way but it just doesn't have
primarily
have got it mixed
the body when you -- when you
a It -- it could be little bit thinner somehow And
I don't know how to explain it I'm not a technical
guy
10 Q. Could you get the same effect by using one of the other compounds and diluting it with more water or did you lose some integrity of the product
13 if you did that A. can't answer that I don't know that

1283tn _ tapQe. And what would be the purpose ofgoing back with a finishing coat from a contractor's standpoint with this product A. This product in itself was not as bodied as the first coat The first coat has to be bodied

A. Right
19
Q. When you did that would it have a

A. No you would have to paint over it
22
Q. Okay Why was it called texture paint
23
It was a texture for paint
24
A. am assuming it was called texture paint
25 because you could put it on with other vehicles

A. We started removing it in 1972

1156 don't know how to explain it It gives you like a
but it's more of a paint With the
17 texture
could mix this with
18
textures you had to spray You
19 water and put it on with a brush
20 21 22

Q. Okay A. And would give you a textured type effect little bit different

other than trowels and -- or machines
Q. Okay And that was because of the
viscosity
A. Yes sir
Q. Okay Next we have got Document 1040 This is called Paco Texture Vinyl Base 100 I think we saw a side of that bag -M
A. Yes

Q. Okay Now over the years with these products -- let me back up First we don't have
photographs here of each of the 31 product lines
that we have under Document 1019 do we
A. You don't have --
12345 Q. Do you know whether or not Moore has from its archives or -- or from whatever purposes copies of the other product lines that are on Document 1019 to supplement the ones we have just
discussed
1011
A. have seen copies of labels or packaging
in the archives in the repository Now whether
all these are within that stack I don't -- I do not
know that sir But a lot of what is on here is
14 what you have got there
I 16
Q. Yeah think we have got 10 or 15 of --
looks like we have looked at photographs of about
17
half of those products that are on the list
BalAl.parYkeah because you keep in mind some of
2024 these are all the same only they're like the Quik you have three different products
Q. Okay
A. You have a fast medium and slow dry so
25
that -- but that bag would be the same for that one
Page 156
Q. Okay A. So even though it had the same basic
a ingredients in it it was -- it was made little
bit differently to appeal to the Texas market the
Texas users and a lot of the products had different
123 alpha numbers on them or letters Q. Okay MR HAZEN Hey Brent can we take five for a quick bathroom break MR COON Sure
11
MR HAZEN We've been going about
an hour or so
MR COON That's good THE VIDEOGRAPHER Going off the
record at 2:11
17 A recess was taken THE VIDEOGRAPHER Back on the
record the time is 2:25 Q. By Mr. Coon Okay Mr. Giffins we
just took another break and now that we're back on we were last going through the product lines and in
23 looking at the bags a number of them have a caution I believe we can go back -- look at this one by example It says Caution contains --
25
A. Right
Page 155
.
123 except that it would identify on the bag if it was
123 fast medium or slow
3
Q. Well for instance I don't recall seeing
4 one that said Radiant Heat Fill
5
A. No.
6
Q. Do you know what that was
7
A. have no idea
8
Q. I did not recall one that said Triple
9 Duty Bestex D. Do you know what that was
10
A. I think at one time Triple Duty Bestex D
11 was the predecessor to the All Purpose but I don't
12 swear
13
Q. What about Bestex A
14
A. You want to get real confused
15
Q. Not really but I am probably going to get
16 there
17
A. Bestex product could have been made as
18 Bestex say for ceiling texture but there were
19 different formulas because some areas you had to
20 make a formula where it dried differently The
21 formula for Texas is entirely -- was basically
22 different in a way not basically but there was a
23
difference in the formula than the Bestex would have
24 been in California because of our humidity and heat |
25 here from a drying point

Q. -- asbestos fibers avoid breathing
2 ~~ dust
3
A. Avoid creating dust
4
Q. Okay Avoid creating dust Breathing
5 asbestos dust may cause serious bodily harm
6
Is that a label or warning notice that you have
.7 seen on other bags of the Paco textured product
8 lines
9
A. Yes
10
Q. Now it's fair to say that that did not go
11
on to
any
of the
bags
that
contained
asbestos prior ,
12 to 1972 correct
13
A. That is correct
=
14
Q. Okay So you are not aware of any of the
15 Moore product lines that contained asbestos
16 having any type of additional labeling on it such
17 as what we just read on any of the products before
18
1972
19
A. had not seen anything with a warning on
20 it prior to the items that were produced in '72
21
Q. Okay Now in looking at these
22 photographs of the products since they have this
23 label on the bottom looks like it's mostly on the
24 bottom back of each of the bags doesn't it
25
A. believe it appears to be at the bottom

the bag yes In the back Q. And it's on the backside of the bag --
A. Yes
Q. -- below the instructions and
--
ingredients
A. Correct -- and all that other stuff So it's fair
to sQa.y that when we're looking at these photos for it to have those labels on them dealing with
were taken in
asbestos we know that these pictures '72 or sometime thereafter certainly not before
1727 A.
Q.
I think it's a fair assumption yes sir
But you don't know what year they were
taken A. have no idea sir
. Q. Okay Now if we were to look at these same bags from like 1965 or 1970 for those
that still bad asbestos in them and we
pwirloldutcaltks more about that later but for those
that still had asbestos in them would any
porfotdhuectmshad any kind of labeling to identify that
asbestos was in the bags
MR HAZEN Brent I'm sorry what
was your time frame again I just missed it on that

identified on any of the bags before 1972

that because I

A. Again can't answer
of the bags prior What I have

seen is what we --
_
5
Q. Okay And it's fine Mr. Giffins I
6 guess just when you're telling me you haven't seen
7 any bags like that it leaves me with the impression
8 that you may still believe that for some reason
there were labels like that on the bags and so
190 maybe it's just a misunderstanding I just want to
11 clear with you Do you have any reason toof
12 believe here today that there were any types
13 labelings like what we have just looked at on these
14 bags on any of the products before 1972

20 = know what was on there prior sir

Q. Okay But as corporate representative
22 for Moore has -- have other management
23 people or people in the marketing or labeling or
22 bagging or anyone told you that they had warnings

Q. By Mr. Coon At any time prior to '72 for any of the products that had asbestos
A. As
Q. Would there have been any labeling to your knowledge that would have identified the bag containing asbestos
A. No as I said a little bit earlier I am
not aware that there was anything on the bags prior
72 nor have I seen anything --
Q. Okay
A. -- that would indicate that
Q. And it's a fold question One is you're not aware of the bags identifying asbestos as one of the ingredients prior to '72
A. That's correct
Q. And in addition to that you're also not aware of any of the bags having any kind of warnings
or cautions about the fact that asbestos was in the
bag
A. It's - that's correct
Q. Okay Now with respect to --
A. have not seen any of that
Q. Okay Do you have reason to believe that there were any types of labeling of the nature that
Page 161
12
A. This particular warning was not put on the
12 bags until '72
3
Q. Okay And --
4
A. That particular warning
5
Q. Okay Now and again you're saying that
6 particular warning was there any other kind of
7 warning on any of the bags before 1972
8
A. have indicated I don't know sir
9
Q. You're not aware of any
10
A. am not personally aware of any No.
11 Q. Do you have an understanding or reason to
12
believe for some reason that there were such
13 warnings
14
A. can't speculate I really can't sir --

16
A. to be frank with you

Q. You don't have any reason to believe that
18 there were Nobody at the plants told you that

123 MR HAZEN Objection form
123
Q. By Mr. Coon Because it has a -- you can
4 barely read it here but it says Baldwin Ehret
5 Hill Have you heard of that company

8 had to offer
9
Q. You believe you were the largest
10 supplier of the rebranded market for GP under those

14 rebranded more for them from '68 '71

Store Number 2 is only selling two bags and try to
12 determine why it is that one store selling much more of a particular product than another MR HAZEN Objection form A. Well it's two questions One being back
5 in the early 70s around that time everything was all manual so if a -- you wanted to know what a store was selling you'd have to go through the
9 invoices and keep track and go back and sort
something out
The second part of your question I think was applying to the geographic area A lot of that had to do with customer preference and you could have different customer preferences within the same city
just geographically So --
Q. By Mr. Coon The bags that we looked at here would they pretty much look like that through
the years or were there a lot of changes to the. m
for some reason or another
A. The ones that I've seen basically the primary design was pretty consistent There may
have been some color changes or something or maybe a print size change or whatever but -- .
Q. Could anyone else order any of these
products other than the local store
Page 172 &
been able to sell to non Moore stores in the
geographic area that was allowed Anytime you had a Moore store within a certain geographic area
3 it was all through a Moore paint store Q. Okay They kind of had a -- a zone around
5 each of them that you couldn't sell to the -- the
7 public without going through the retail store A. It wasn't the intention of the company to
9 sell other than through its own stores to begin
with
Q.
A.
Q.
A.
Do you know what their typical radius was
I can't answer that
20 miles or 50 miles or -I can't answer that The only thing I can
tell you would be my speculation Q. How would -- you said Mr. Freeman
Mr. Freeman was one of the sales reps
A. Mr. Freeman was the gentleman who opened
the plant in Tulsa in 1969 and then subsequently moved the plant to Broken Arrow in 1975 and then subsequently bought the business in 1978
Q. Okay Do you know whether or not there
were any field salesmen in any of the geographic
areas that went out to either commercial prospects business prospects whether it was a company that
Page 171
You mean outside of the company
Yes sir
Outside of the store employee
12345 Q. Yes sir No. . Was that tightly regulated Well if it's anything like it is today
Q. 9 yes Q. Okay Do you know how it was in the 60s
or 70s A. As
;
say we pretty well operate today the
we did then as far as processing of the orders
way
and there's -- it's pretty definite on how these
things are placed
Q. Okay And to your knowledge there were
no distributors that would have allowed these
lines to have gone out to the open market
product
local retail
without going through a Moore
store
As A. As indicated earlier the company's
objective from day one was to market through its own stores and to sell its own products through its own
stores Paco was sold through the Moore
stores
At one point like Mr. Freeman he may have
Page 173
6 did a lot of drywall work whether or not it would have been another mom store out in the woods that was not competitive to the local Moore store any other places where they could try to sell the product and improve their market

you've got

one sales rep or you could have more
15 depending on the sales volume of that store That
17
sales rep basically -- all -- went out and called on
painting contractors He could call on the owner of
to this building to try get that person to utilize
the paint product or any of our products in that

what he sold to the painting contractor or actually
what he sold

come back and correct this All sales go through
3 the store The store is the base for the sales transaction because again that sales rep who works out of Store A he gets compensated by the sales
that go through that store
;
If the factory were to by chance -- let's say
9 that sales rep had a big order and it was five pallets of paint just in theory and it was a -- at a job site that was close to the factory He could
arrange for the factory to deliver those five
pallets of paint to the job site but all that billing goes through the store and the dealing with
the customers through the store
Q. Okay right Now I want to
understand this type of invoice Would this be a
_ comprehensive invoice or does this just deal with
the -- looks like this sheet just deals with the
Paco lines
A. I believe so Yes
Q. And then there is a Page 2 which is BB
4837. What is that one
;
A. It's Paco It's listing some of the other
products like the asbestos wall texture Q. Why would -- I'm sorry why would this
form be different than this one
Page 180 &
were your store items and then you had what I
3 understood to be sundries being the other things . you bought from other vendors like paint brushes --
A. huh
S Q. --rollers and stuff like that But when look at this list I see like Paco Quik Fast
Paco Quik Slow and it lists the volume and the
10 pound bags These are on the sundries list but I understood these to be things that were not
10
sundries because they were internal products
A. Okay It's good point Going back
11 everything in the store that was sold through a store would have a preprinted sheet like this So
you would have a preprinted sheet for the paint
14 You would have a preprinted sheet for the Paco You
would have a preprinted sheet for all the sundries
16 the brushes rollers sandpaper and all that
16 The store would take this and this is -- make
18
an order off of these sheets
Q. Okay
20 A. By terminology Moore today in
thinking of terms of today everything we make is our own manufacture Anything that we don't make is
sundries I have no idea of what the date of this
1424 is here but this is showing on the sundry form and
Page 179
A. Well I think it's the same It's just that we don't have a copy of everything So
somebody got shortchanged
Q. Okay
A. That's what it looks like Got
12375 shortchanged Yes somebody covered -- this has been covered here Just somebody wrote on that to
give you that breakdown Q. Okay Similar -- is this a later form
later dated form one used at a different time A. This says Arvada which was our store in
Colorado this says sundries so this was a sundry
order form We don't - we didn't -- this was
considered a sundry
Q. Okay
A. Let me see if any of these items are on
this page
Q. That's why
am wondering If you look
here on the sundries this is part of the sundries
here this is all preform right
A. Right Q. And I had understood your testimony
earlier to be that you had your Moore product
lines which would have been your Moore
paints your Paco stuff things that you guys owned
Page 181 :
it could have because it's not a paint item but
12
generally sundries would be stuff that we did not manufacture So that's a little confusing
Q. Okay So to clarify would the Paco products normally be something that should be put on
sundries the
line or should they have normally gone
on this other kind of form
A. They were probably classified as a sundry
9 because it was only a small part of the business
10 very small part of the business we didn't -- I mean
10 we were primarily a paint house Q. Okay
:
1415 A. Paco was just a small entity Q. The other line of questions that I had for
you earlier that you didn't have a lot of
information on Mr. Giffins concerned the actual information that you may have regarding the
16 production and sale of drywall materials Remember I asked you something about that before if you knew 18 actually anything about the volume of business or 21 the total amount of product that was sold And I
2025 found what's -- this is KMX 2085 it's our Document

MR HAZEN Thank you
Q. By Mr. Coon But if you look at that it appears to be some house documents at Moore that identify various locations and over the different calendar years the total volume of
different types of product sales Have you seen that document before sir
A. don't think I have seen this page I
don't think I have seen this before I really don't recall It -- if it came out of the repository I
probably have seen it but I really don't recall it Q. Okay As understand reading this what
we would do is we would look at -- for instance this is the Richmond California facility Was that
the Paco facility
A. Yes
Q. Okay And if we look at the 60 through 64 here they don't have much information here in the early years with respect to the production numbers correct just sales volume
A. It appears that way
Q. Okay Then if we go to the next page we have San Carlos California and picks up that next year '64 and would this be as a result of the facility moving from Richmond to San Carlos
Page 183
12345
A. It would be my assumption that it was
12345 yes
12345
Q. Yeah I think even here comments I
12345 think it says facility was moved from Richmond so I
12345 think that explains it And it starts giving us
6 better numbers with respect to the volume of
7 employees and things like that correct But we
8 still have information on the total number of
9 purchase of pounds of product until '67 right
10
A. Appears so
11
Q. If we look at the -- at the fourth column
12 '67 we now are getting information not only on
13 the amount of sales and the number of employees
14 number of people in production but as we get close
15 to the bottom we actually have a total production
16 in tons of the product as well as total amount of
17 asbestos purchases in tons for the product correct
18
A. Correct
19
Q. So if we look at '67 for the San Carlos
20 California facility for the Paco product we can see
21 that there was 9927 tons of product made according
22 this Is that correct
23
A. Appears to be correct
24
Q. And of that there would have been 585
tons of asbestos purchased for that product line
Page 184 |
123
A. About six percent of the total tonnage was
:
123 in asbestos yes i
Es
123
Q. All right
4
A. That's about consistent
:
' S
Q. was going to ask you that If you look
B
6 at 585 being close to 600 and 9927 being close to
7 10,000 we're looking at about 6 percent by weight
7
8 being the asbestos to the total production
q
;
9
A. Correct
10
Q. And it's -1 we haven't discussed this but
i
q 11 generally the Paco product lines that contained
12 asbestos were typically between five and eight or
: 13 nine percent asbestos were they not
14 MR HAZEN Objection objection : Fi
15
form
16
A. No. It was around six percent is the
i
: 17 number that recall
I 18
Q. By Mr. Coon Pretty consistent six with
4
H 19
all of them
i 20
A. If you look at averaging it out the
:
6 21
average is around percent
4
22
Q. Okay
322
A. In the beginning
;
i 322
Q. Okay And we will talk about that
i
25
A. Again I want to go back to that '64
4
Page 185 ;
1
time frame in the early days because that's when
2 those numbers occurred But in 1972 --
3
Q. Right
4
A. --we --we started to change the products and
S that changed that whole balance dramatically
6
Q. Sure And we will talk about that So
7
we look at '68 we have 11,500 tons and a ton is
8 2,000 pounds right
9
A. huh
10
Q. So if we multiplied this number by 2,000
11 it will tell us the total amount of pounds bought
12
A. Correct
;
_ 13
Q. And again in '68 for the purchase of
14 asbestos there was 844 tons of asbestos bought for
:
15 _ that facility that year
16
A. Correct
17
Q. And again it looks like that's still
18 running about six percent
19
A. It's a little bit over six but yeah
20
Q. Six or seven percent
21
A. Right
22
Q. And we go to '69 through '73 and again
23 can look at the numbers We have 11,000 tons
24 and 844 tons of asbestos for '69 correct
25
A. Correct

Q. 12,000 tons of product using 654 tons of
12 asbestos '70
3
A. Correct
4
Q. That's actually maybe just under six
5 percent total weight would it not be
6
A. Yes Appears to be
7
Q. And we have 14,000 plus tons of
8 product and 953 tons of asbestos correct
9
A. There was a little bit of a tip there
10
Q. Right
11
A. It was an increase
12
Q. And so in that year the percentage of
13 asbestos in the products actually went up to
14 probably closer to 7 or 8 percent it appears
15 correct
16
A. Yes According to those numbers yes
17
Q. Okay And then in '72 you have 11,000
18 tons of product made and again when we're talking
19 product this is all the Paco products correct
~~ 20
A. Correct
21 Q. We had 11,000 tons of Paco made at the San
2223 Carlos facility with 534 tons of asbestos so we're
2223 down to about five percent again correct
2223
A. huh
25
Q. And then in '73 we have almost 9,000 tons
Page 188 &

23 24 25
others had no asbestos the total amount of asbestos
you bought would go down
A. Should be going down Plus some of the
had -- were reformulated to contain
other products
,
less asbestos
Q. So as we look through the 70s we see
two different dynamics One is some of your
don't have asbestos in them so the total
products
of
asbestos
you
buy
would
go
down
from
amount
,
that
correct
A. Correct
which Q. And you also reduced the amount of
asbestos in some of our your other products
would be another reason the number would go down
some
A. That's correct
Q. And if we look through '74 through 77 again we have about 9,000 tons of product in '74
with 245 tons of asbestos correct
A. huh Q. Next year 7700 tons to 235 tons of
asbestos correct
A. Correct
Q. And then '76 55 almost 5600 tons of
product with 130 tons of asbestos And then in
Page 187
12 of product with 442 tons of asbestos being used for
2 the product
3
A. Correct
4
Q. Again right about five percent
5
A. Five percent But the -- obviously the
6 amount of tonnage of asbestos is declining in
7 relationship to the amount of tonnage of production
8
Q. Okay It actually -- yeah it actually
9 looked like it was about six percent for several
10 times and around '71 it actually went up and then
11 '72 went down again a little bit
12
A. Yeah That's because in '72 wait a
13 minute '73 I believe is when we came out with
.
--
14 all asbestos product
15 16
Q. Okay A. -- which was one of our better selling
1178 proQd.uctBsut you had some products starting in the 19 early 70s that did not have asbestos in ptuhrecmhassoes in
20 therefore the total amount of asbestos
21 -- in any given year would not have been that same 22 six or seven percent as it had been
1222
A. That's logical yeah
1222
Q. Some of the products would have still had
the same amount of asbestos in them but since some
Page 189

24 25
'77 we have about 5450 tons of product made with
about 181 tons of asbestos A. And then at this rate we're talking about
half percent
Q. Right
A. So
of the total
Q. So half percent
weight of your products made at that facility by
1976 and were asbestos
A. Correct
Q. And that was because --
A. Roughly if you're going by these numbers
Q. Because some products had no asbestos in it and some still had four or five percent
A. Indicating
Q. And then in 1978 1978 we don't have numbers
off of this Do you know why A. Because we stopped making asbestos
products with asbestos
Q. the San Carlos California facility
A. In 1977
Q. Okay So the last youumnaddeer the Paco name at containing products the San Carlos facility was in '77
A. Throughout the company

123
Q. Okay Well we will also ask you about
123 the other facilities
123
Over these years -- let's back up real quick
4 For '60 through '66 where we do not have numbers of
__ 5
6 } 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17
total volume or the number of tons of asbestos
bought do you have any reason to believe that the
ratio of asbestos to total tonnage would have been
much different than it was in the late 60s
A. It would be speculation on my part --
really don't know I had - I don't know what -
know I can't tell you what was sir
you
Q.
Okay You don't have any reason today to
believe that there was significantly less or
significantly greater percentage of asbestos of the
product in the early years from '60 to '66 as there
was from '67 to the early 70s do you
MR HAZEN Objection form
18
A. really don't know honestly
19
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay
20
A. really don't know
21
Q. Okay Well Mr. Griffins --
22
A. At that time asbestos was used in all
222 drywall products --
222
Q. Right
25
A. not just with ours so I have no idea
Page 192 i
12 didn't have the information
12
Q. Okay But in all fairness sitting here
3 today we know that for those first six years even
4 though there is no numbers here we know that they
5 bought asbestos in five or six percent ratio to
6 the total amount of their tonnage of product
7
A. Only -- am not going -- I can't comment
8 on the percentage on the balance sir I really
_ 9 can't I don't know
10
Asbestos was the prime product used in all
11 drywall products at that time so there had to be
12 some purchasing of it would be my assumption
13 Although it doesn't indicate it here I don't doubt
14 that they didn't have the records up As far as
I cannot speculate on that I cannot
15 percentage
that we had sales and
16
Q. Okay But we know
17 we know where we had product made we just don't
18 know from a lack of records how many tons of product
19
were made nor how many tons of asbestos was bought
20 to make the product
21
A. That's apparent on this yes
22
Q. Okay But we -- I thought we did have an
23 understanding that the products through those early
24
contained five to six percent asbestos by
years
25 weight
Page 191
12 of the composition in the earlier years sir
12
Q. Okay But you do agree that the products
3
that were made at Paco from '60 to '66 had asbestos
4 them
5
A. From 60 to '66 had asbestos at an average
6 a weighted average of about five percent of the
7 total material total package was about five
8 percent
9
Q. Sure So even though we don't see
10 asbestos being bought from '60 to '66 is just
11 because they have NA which they did not have
12 available information
13
A. Somebody didn't have the records for
14
whatever reason
15
Q. Right Didn't mean they didn't buy
16 asbestos just meant they didn't have any
17 information available in the early years to go back
18 and determine how much asbestos they actually bought
19 for the Paco lines in the first six years
20 MR HAZEN Objection form
21
Q. By Mr. Coon And that's what it
22 indicates right
323
A. Well --
323
Q. Where it says not available
323
A. If it says not available it means they
Page 193
MR HAZEN Objection form
2
A. know what it contained basically from
3
about the -- the 70s and the late 60s based on
4 some of the information we have What happened
5 here when you get into the early 60s well this
6 was when we bought the Paco thing as you can see
7 they obviously didn't keep very good records but
8 the point is I have no idea what was involved in
9 it sir
10
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay
a
A. No idea
12
Q. Well and I guess here is what I am trying
13 to find out Mr. Giffins is as the corporate
14
representative
today
am
here
to
try
to
find
out |
15 what we can about the product lines that had
16 asbestos and how much asbestos was in them I
the dilemma I have is that we know that the- --
17 guess
made that had
18 the main lines that Moore
19 asbestos in them were the Paco product lines
20 correct
21
A. They were the only ones
22 Q. And we know that that happened from 1960
23 when they bought the Paco facility all the way
322 through the later 70s correct
25
A. Correct

123
Q. And what I am trying to find out for my
123 information and my clients is whether or not there
123 was asbestos in the Paco products in 1960 '61
4 '62 '63 '64 '65 and '66 and I was of the
5 impression that it was but you're not telling me
6 _ that it was
7 A. am looking at this You and I both
8 agree this says NA not available
9
Q. Right
10
A. think I did say sir that at that time
11 all drywall products primarily were made with some
12 amount of asbestos
13
Q. Okay Let me -- fold One when you
14 say all drywalls you're talking about products
15 Moore made --
16
A. The industry
17
Q. --- and everybody else made
18
A. Correct
19
Q. Everybody's drywall product had asbestos
20 in to the best of your knowledge
22222
A. Yes
22222
Q. And to the best of your knowledge
22222 Moore being in that industry theirs had
22222 asbestos in it too
22222
A. have to assume it did
Page 196
12
Q. Okay Mr. Giffins in the four or five
12 other depositions that you have given since you have
3 been brought in to be a spokesperson for Moore
4 on these issues have the other attorneys in these
5 cases asked you about the composition of asbestos in
_ 6 these products in the '60 to '66 time frame
7
- MR HAZEN Objection form
8
A. No I don't think I can say that they
9 asked as much about the composition of the product
10 am chemist I didn't structure the material
11
12 __
13 14 15
-- have seen the batch tickets I understand a
little bit of the raw material implications but I
don't recall on the other -- I'd have to go back and
review them but I don't know if there has been as
much emphasis put on the earlier days here as far
16 as the composition sir
17
Q. By Mr. Coon So as we sit here today
18 we know that asbestos was in the -- all the product
19 -- Paco product lines from '60 to '66 but we just 20 don't know if the composition of asbestos in them
21
was more or less than it was in the later 60s
22
A. am assuming asbestos was part of it and
222 have no idea of the balance
222
Q. Okay Could have been more could have
25 been less
Page 195
123
Q. Okay And you believe that percentage of .
123 weight of asbestos in the products to be five or six
123 percent
4
A. can't say that I have no idea what it
S was in these earlier days sir
6
Q. Okay What would be a way for us to -- or
7
who would we talk to to get a better - a chance of
8 a better understanding of the amount of asbestos
9 that was in use in the Paco product lines in the 10 first five or six years that Moore owned it
11
,
MR HAZEN Objection form
12
A. Well first of all all the records are at
13 the repository It's open for anybody to go in 14 there Most everybody has gone through it and
_ 15 there are production batch tickets in there and so
16 forth so I would think that if somebody is
17 interested in that they can you know make a trip
18 to the repository --
19
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay
20
A. - with all the records
322222
Q. Okay Have they --
322222
A. I can't tell you what that --
322222
Q. Sure
322222
A. -- percentage is if those records are
322222 there
Page 197 fi
.
-23456
A. Sure could
-23456
Q. Now with respect to where the asbestos
-23456
came from when we look at this you know 600 tons
-23456 700 800 900 tons of asbestos -
-23456

Q. By Mr. Coon Well that's more than a
10 dump truckload isn't it
11
MR HAZEN Objection form
12
A. Yeah But you're still looking at only
13 from anywhere from nothing to half to
14 maybe five percent of the total mix of the product
15
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay Well sure And if
16 we look here when we talk about 1,00 11,000 tons of
17 product that's a lot of product too right
18
A. huh
19
MR HAZEN Objection
20
MR NANTZ Objection form
21
Q. By Mr. Coon We're talking about you
22 would have to multiply that number by two and put
23 three more zeros behind it so we're talking about
24 22 million pounds of product right
A. Possibly yes

Q. Well I mean if you just take that number
2 and multiply it times 2,000 that's about how much
2 product Paco product they made that year
4 5 6. 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14
A. Okay
Q. And you call -- is that a lot of product
to you A lot anything to you just by weight something that's 22 million pounds
MR HAZEN Objection form
MR NANTZ Objection form
A. Well it's kind of hard It just depends on I guess what part of -- perspective you're trying to put in When look at our plants that California makes 10 million gallons a year and if you equate that to pounds I think it would far
15 exceed this -
16
The Paco part of the business was a very
17
was a small part of the total business Now if you
18 look at this poundage in relationship to this it
19 seems like lot Okay But in the scheme of
20 things this was a very very small part of our
21 business
22
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay With respect to the
23
--- let's take '69 here for example The 844 tons
24 of asbestos that would have been about
25 half million pounds of asbestos

were the only suppliers

did Moore deal with all three of those

MR NANTZ Objection form
-
q Q. By Mr. Coon Or did it vary on -- over
f the time frames over the years
A. You know in looking at the -- in looking
:
:
at the spread out I think there were some years where there may some -- asbestos was bought from a
all three but the varying degree certain ones were

i larger suppliers to the company than others Q. Okay Was there a particular reason that asbestos was bought from those three companies Was
there pricing issue or a quality of the

come from

Q. By Mr. Coon How would it get shipped to

lot of it came in railcars and then some

A. I think it had to do with the -- with the
a length It was little bit shorter little bit
finer than some of the others and therefore worked
well in the drywall products Q. Next we go to under the same chart -
counsel we're up to about pages 2089 of it -- the Ontario California facility Did that one ever make any of the Paco lines
A. Yes
Q. The chart starts '68 Is that the first year that they started making it at the
Ontario facility A. Do you have that letter again
Q. Yes sir
A. can tell you
Q. I think this says '68 on Mr. Merrill's
letter
A. am trying to find it on here Q. It's the bottom of the first page A. Here it is first page second par --
third paragraph from the bottom In '68 they added the drywall material to Ontario and then they shut
it down in '75
Q. Okay Now the Ontario facility was that already an operating facility of Moore before
Page 204
1 joint compounds and it -- I don't know what that
2 means -- as fillers it does show numbers here but
3 they weren't carried down
4
Q. Okay Do you know whether or not that is
5 all that was manufactured at that facility with
6 respect to Paco lines were the ready joint
7 compounds
8
A. I don't know sir
9
Q. Okay Because the ones under it was
10 production tons of the dry powder -
11
A. Dry powder
12
Q. -- products joint compounds
13
A. could have been Again I am only
14 going by this sheet
15
Q. Okay
16
A. It could have been that that was the only
17 product that they made there
18
Q. Okay So it could be that in looking at
19
1420 that number could have carried down to the
20 bottom but we just don't know if that's the only
21 product they made
22
A. That is correct
23
Q. And likewise we don't have any
24 information on the first two years with respect to
25 the quantity of asbestos used in those products
Page 203
1234 they went into the drywall manufacturing there If
1234 you know was it already -
I 1234
A. I don't know think that was basically
4 put in there to be part of an emphasis to be able to
California S get into southern
6
Q. Okay Well let me ask -- if I read this
7 maybe this will answer it It says We added a
8 drywall manufacturing facility to our Ontario
9 California paint factory
10
A. Right
11
Q. So.
12
A. So that would imply they came after
13
Q. It would imply there was already a paint
14 factory there and they expanded to provide drywall ,
15
A. I'll buy that
16
Q. Okay And that operated from '68 until
1975
:
18
A. Five
19
Q. And if we look at this chart again we
20 have unfortunately no information on the total
21 production in tons of Paco products in '68 nor the
22 amount of asbestos that was used correct
23
A. Well I don't know if that's true It
24 looks like somebody didn't carry a number down If
25 you go by this production in tons of ready
Page 205 |,

14
15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25
A. Evidently it's not showing there
Q. Okay If we get to the third year '70
it shows 20 tons of asbestos purchased And again we don't have a total production in tons but we do
have production of ready correct
A. Of this yes The first full year is
172
Q. Right And then the next year '71 we don't have any information on any of the amounts of
production
of the
ready
or
dry
but
we
do
,
have
65 tons of asbestos purchased
A. Oh you're talking about '71
Q. Yes sir
A. Yes I'm sorry you're right Q. And for '72 again we actually have better
information that shows this year in '72 they
actually had the determination of how much ready was made as well as the dry powder which is 2193
tons correct
A. And again -- that's correct If I look at this then I assume it was -- again I have to
look and see but this tells me the same information
I think it's telling you is that these are correct
they didn't make the dry powder until 1975 Q. Okay So then we look in '75 we got

number and then it gives us a +1 two subtotals and one total of 4100 tons of product and 126 tons of asbestos bought there
A. Right Q. And for '74 and '75 it shows 129 tons 73 and 117 tons in '74 and apparently
none '75 and it indicates that - it's kind of hard to determine here but it looks like that early
the year they shut down the plant A. Yes And it could be that they were only
making the asbestos product at that time
Q. Okay A. Because that asbestos product was
available by then on one of the textures Q. Right But we went from 5 or 6,000 tons
of product a year down to 4,000 something in '73 and only 400 in '75 indicates it was winding down

25
Q. What happened in '72
...
A. Closed it down
:
4
Q. Was it sold to -- the equipment sold off
to anyone else or did they just shut it down
6
A. Closed the factory down and continued to
7
operate a store out of there for a while and then
8 subsequently moved from that facility and located
9
elsewhere now
10
Q. Okay And if we look at the forms there
11
which is actually on KMX KMX page 2091 we have the
12 Kirkland Washington facility identified '69 to
i
13 '72 and it shows the amount of products and
14 employees and total amount of production for seventy
15
'69 through '71 but there was not any available
16 information on the amount of asbestos contained in
17 those products Is that correct
18
A. That's what it shows here
19
Q. Okay If we go to -- now on this one
20
where it says NA it's for total asbestos we
21
understand this form to be the identity of those

123 record The time is 3:33
123
Q. By Mr. Coon Mr. Giffins we took another
4 break I want to go back through real briefly We
5 still have a lot of information to cover but let me 6 run through some more of these documents with
7 respect to the production records
8
We have the Kirkland Washington facility next
9 and if we go back and look on Mr. Merrill's summary 10 there is some additional information about when and
11 where that facility was opened and operated
12
A. It was a short time if I recall It was
13
like three or four years If could find it on
14 here
15
Q. This chart indicates '69 to '72
16
A. That's about right because it was not
17 open for that long
facility
18
Q. Okay Was this an acquired facility
19
A. Yes
20
Q. Who had it before
21
A. Oh I was afraid you were going to ask me
22 that I can't recall
222
Q. Did they make drywall compounds there
222 prior to the acquisition or was it a converted
25 facility
Page 209
J
Q. So am presuming that when we look at
2 this based on the title that there was asbestos in
3 the product but we just don't have any information
4 on how much
S
A. Our assumptions would be similar
6
Q. Okay Do you know which Paco products
7 were made at this facility
8
A. Not off the top of my head I think that
9 information is available but I don't -- I don't
10
recall off top of my head
11
Q. Okay So the next page we have Hurst
12 Texas Now this is the facility that you work at
13
A. Yes sir
14
Q. And it opened in '71
i
15
A. It was opened in -- well the plant was
16 opened officially in late '70 yes
17
Q. And we have full year production records
18 starting in '71 apparently
19
A. Evidently
20
Q. Correct
21
A. Yes according to this
22 Q. And unfortunately the first two years do
23 not show the amount of product made but it does
24 show the amount of asbestos purchased
25
A. That is correct

123
Q. And for it was 678 tons and Year 2
123 827 tons
123
A. Correct
4
Q. And then in Year 3 which is 1973 we
5 actually start seeing the index reflecting the total
6 amount of product which is 17,000 17,000 plus tons and
7 the amount of asbestos which is now 400 tons
8 correct
9
A. Correct
10
Q. And '74 and '75 numbers again speak for
11 themselves correct
12
A. Yes And then this number would obviously
13 be well below five percent in 1973 if you look at
14
the tonnage
15
Q. Okay And that's again because of phasing
16 out asbestos in some products and reducing the
17
amount in others
_ 18
A. That was started in '72 and the first
19 asbestos product came out in '73 and it -- and
20 could have been influencing that yes sir
21
Q. And then we carry over to '78 and the
22 record reflects in '76 13,000 plus tons of product
222 and 342 tons of asbestos in those products
222
A. That's correct
222
Q. 15,000 tons plus in '77 of product and
Page 211
12 12 3 4 S 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 22 25
600 plus tons of asbestos correct
A. Correct
Q. And the last year is '78 we're down to 1884 tons of product and 23 tons of asbestos
A. Correct
Q. And that was due to that facility discontinuing the Paco product lines
A. We in 1977 made a decision to get out of
-- at that point making asbestos products So this
obviously was the tail end of it Q. Okay Now did the facility '78
continue to make products that did not contain
asbestos --
A. In in Hurst
Q. -- '78 Yes sir
A. Hurst Yes I believe they did
Q. And for how long did they continue to make products there after they discontinued making containing products
A. I don't recall off the top of my head but as I said earlier the -- the entire Paco thing was shut down in 1982 and I think Hurst may have been one of the last facilities that was shut down So
they probably tailed more toward the end of '72
Q. '82
Page 212 ;
: 12345
A. I mean '82 yes excuse me Thank you
products 12345
Q. Okay So we believe the Paco
:
' 12345 line reflected here would have carried forward from
12345 the late 70s on into the early 80s but they would
:
: 12345 have just not On they would have been asbestos
a
6 then
7
A. That's correct
8
Q. So that would not have been reflected on
9 the chart because this only shows products when they
10 had asbestos
i
11
A. That's correct
facility 12
Q. And then we look at the ledger for Dallas
: 13
this starts -- that was the '63 to '70
a
14
A. That was the year that we bought Hanna
,
15 Paint yes
And that would have been to
:
16
Q. Hanna Paint
:
17 1970 correct
:
18
A. Correct
19 Q. And then you closed that facility because 4i
20 you got a new facility in Hurst
21
A. Correct
22
Q. So if we look at the years here from '63
:
23 to '70 we don't have good information on the amount
24 of product made or total production or asbestos in
9
25 those products until '67 correct
t
Page 213 i
123
A. That's the first time it shows any
123 asbestos that's correct
A
123
Q. Yeah And so for whatever reasons there
4 was just not good information made available on the
;
f 5 amount of product made or how much asbestos was
~ 6 bought until that year In '67 we see 93 tons of
7 asbestos bought for that product line
4
8
A. Again that's 40 years ago and it could
:
;
: 9
have been --
10
Q. Sure
:
11
A. -- records weren't readily available
12
Q. Or maybe they're there now and just still
:
purchased ; 13 haven't been located in the right format or
:
14 whatever
15
A. Could have been
Q
16
Q. You're talking '67 93 tons
:
17 correct Are these also the Paco lines this Paco
:
:
18 product
i
19
A. Yes sir
:
20
Q. Then we get to '68 '69 and '70 we still
21 did not have information on the total production or
22 the amount of production but it shows the amount of
: 23 tons of asbestos each of those three years being 173
respectively 22 tons 53 tons and 197 tons :

.Q Okay Then we have the Denver Colorado facility This also made Paco products
A. It sure did
Q. Same types we have been talking about A. I -- they may not have made all of those . but they made some Paco products that is correct Q. Okay And then we go '73 through '76 with that facility What happened'76 Were they
closed
A. It was closed
Q. And how was it this facility first opened '71 New facility or acquired facility
A. It was an acquired facility if I recall Q. Did they make product containing asbestos at that facility before '71 A. don't know We bought that I believe from Professional Paints or what they called Pro Paint at the time Here in 1971 we added a drywall manufacturing facility to our Denver -- so '71 -so we had to buy this prior because it was the paint -
Q. Okay A. It was prior Q. This preexisted '71 as a paint operation of Moore
fk
Page 216 ,
-23
A. Right
: -23
Q. Is that correct
[ -23 A. Yes i
4
Q. Okay And for those years '67 through
5 '74 the Houston office would have made the same
6 Paco product lines we have been talking about
7
A. They would have made some of them because
8 not all plants necessarily made everything
9
Q. Okay And if we look here it shows for
10 the first -- actually for all years '67 through
11
'74 there is no information on the amount of
12 production of tonnage of product
13
A. total tonnage correct
14
Q. Right Or of the amount of ready or
15 dry powder mix
16
A. Right
17
Q. It just shows the number of employees each
18 year
19

20

22222
A. And get an idea of the growth of the --
22222
Q. Okay
22222
A. From that standpoint
22222
Q. Okay And it looks like a bell curve
22222 _ started out kind of low went up peaked peakedin

Page 215
A. Evidently yes sir Q. And then in '71 it was expanded to include a Paco product line
A. Correct
Q. And that existed through apparently '76
correct
A. That's what it appears to be
Q. And unfortunately we have some records on the total production in tons but there was no record keeping of the amount of asbestos bought for that facility for any of the calendar years
correct
A. It appears that way
Q. We next look at Houston Texas and this was -- is this the facility we talked about earlier the vermiculite facility
A. I don't believe so I think there were two separate facilities sir
plant Q. Okay So we had the vermiculite
and then we had the separate facility open in
Houston from '67 until '74
A. That's what this says right Q. And then it indicates that facility was
closed and the Houston area got supplied from the
H-urst Texas facility
Page 217 f
1
the early 70s and then went back down into '74 as
2 _ they started phasing it out
3
A. Right
4
Q. And the asbestos composition we can see
S
it for each of the years 23 tons '67 75 tons in
6 '68 and unknown amount in '69 Again most likely

A. do not sir
Q. Okay If we look at the Documents 21 -this is 2100 counsel -- we're talking about the Tulsa Oklahoma facility now and this made Paco products from '69 until '74
A. '75 is when they moved to Broken Arrow Q. Okay There are some comments on the bottom about relocating to Broken Arrow in '75 A. In August of '75
Q. And I bet you if you look at the next
page there it is Broken Arrow is the last one
'75 through '77 A. Right
Q. So that's the relocation of the Tulsa facility
A. That is correct
Q. And for records of '69 '70 and '71 we
apparently don't have any for anything other than
the sales for each year

Q. Yeah So we don't know how much product
made how many Paco products made total tonnage of Paco or the asbestos purchased for those

11
Q. Okay Next real briefly Mr. Giffins we
12 have the -- this is Document 1020 four pages This
13
appears to be a some sort of form instructions
14 that go with the different products Have you seen
__ 15 those types of documents before 4
16 A. I don't think I have seen this one per se i
17 but -- but I know what it is It appears -- appears :
18 to be directions like on the back of a package
19
Q. Okay Were those directions that would
;
20 typically be handled -- handed out by the local
_ 21 store or is that something retyped from what's on a
:
22 bag or what if you know
j
23
A. This is probably what was typed that went
:
24 onto the bag Generally instructions are typed out
:
25 and then they get printed onto the bag as to how

Q. '72 we have it only for asbestos being 235 tons '73 236 tons and '74 298 tons correct
A. Correct
Q. And we still don't have any information on
the total amount of products for those years
though do we --
a
A. Not for that no
they Q. -- for this And if we get to when
relocated at Broken Arrow in '75 we now have better information on the production We have 2400 tons of
ready 400 tons of dry powder for a total of 2800 plus tons with a hundred and seventy --
A. Eight
Q. - eight tons of asbestos correct A. Appears to be
Q. And in '76 we have 9700 plus tons of product on 252 tons of asbestos and in '77 we have
13,600 tons of product on 492 tons of asbestos
correct
20
A. Correct
21
Q. right We have covered a lot of
22 ground there Does this appear to be a pretty
1222 comprehensive index of the facilities that made Paco
1222 products and the years that each of those
1222 _ facilities was in business and the products they
Page 221 ;
1 they're supposed to go So either somebody copied
_ t: 2 this off the bag or it was done the other way
E
3 around Instructions were written and then they
:
4 were printed onto the bag
:
S
Q. Okay

A. There's some more Okay I didn't look

:
15
Q. Yes sir
: 16
A. -- from my experience when directions are
17 put together they're put together as it relates to
18 the product Then the other things that have to be

19 added based on government requirements or state
:
20 requirements generally are added when the bags are

21
printed So this may not -- I don't know when this

and restencil additional information on any of their
bags additional logos labels anything else Anything that would have been added to the bags after they came from Saint Regis
MR HAZEN Objection form A. Not that I'm aware of The only thing
where stickers were added was when the OSHA
requirements came out In order to comply a sticker was made up and put on the bags until the bags were printed with that on there
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay
A. But I am not aware that any other
modification was made to the bags Q. Okay I have got another document here
This is a 1018
MR HAZEN Is that your number MR COON Our number It's
previously marked KM 94 by somebody Q. By Mr. Coon But can you identify that
set of records there sir
A. This appears to be a listing of various raw materials that were purchased from different companies and it's headed Paco Products so I'm assuming it has to relate to Paco products
Q. Would it have been the different vendors
1 the raw ingredients
2
A. Yes I was just trying -- oh there they
3 are I was just trying to look further That's
4
what it appears to be
5
Q. Okay And if we looked under the pigments
,
6 and fillers this was at Page 2 of the document
7 when it talks about pigments and fillers we have
8 different ingredients You have the limestone
9 ground styrene and it talks about Mica and then
10 there is two listings here 7RF02 asbestos
11 Manville and another is 7M05 asbestos
12 Manville
13
A. Right
14
Q. Do you know what those codings meant Was
15 that a quality or grading of the product
16
A. I believe and again I am not a chemist
17
I didn't -- but I believe the 7RF is what they
18
called a float and the one without the RF on it was
19 basic Chrysotile Both of these were Chrysotile
20
but this was what's called a float It's a little
21
bit different fiber Don't ask me how to explain
22 it It's processed through water from what I
23
understand
24
Q. Okay Would this have reflected that both
25
types of asbestos would have been used in the Paco
Page 223

2 . A. the raw materials
3
Q. Of the raw materials you used to make the
4 different Paco products
S
A. Correct
6
MR NANTZ Objection form
7
Q. By Mr. Coon And it actually goes back
8
to think one page is even you have St. Regis
g That would have been your bag supplier
10
A. I mentioned St. Regis earlier That's the
11 bag supplier that serviced San Carlos and there 12 could have been maybe somebody else different in
13 some of the other plants but St. Regis was I
14 believe the -- one of the key suppliers of San
15 Carlos
16
Q. Now the bagging processes all took place
17 at the manufacturing facility correct
18
A. Yes
19
Q. Okay You didn't ship -- you
20 ~
21
didn't mix it all up and make the product and then ship it somewhere else to have it bagged
22
A. No it was the other way around The bags
23 were made shipped to us and we filled them
24
Q. Okay Anything else about that That's
25 just kind of a listing of the various suppliers of
Page 225
12
textures or were they picked from one or the other
2 on various Paco products
3
A. I'm not sure I understand your question
4
MR HAZEN Objection form
5
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay Are the things that
6
are listed on here as ingredients -- are all these
7 ingredients what went into the Paco product or did
8
some go in some products some go into others
9
A. have to believe not all these went into
10 any one product I think since the products were
11
used for different uses for different purposes
12
that this was the total list of raw materials at
13 that time for the Paco products
looks 14
Q. Okay And thisis chopped off It
15
like December of --

17
Q. '75
18
A. By the second page
19
Q. There we go December of '75
20
A. Right
21
Q. So it appears at least at this time
22 frame you told us about the three suppliers as
23 being of the raw material asbestos Manville was one
24
of them and it appears from this form that for
25 1975 at this particular facility at least during
NELL MCCALLUM & ASSOCIATES INC 713 861-0203
57 Pages 222 to 225
36766920-761c
Page 226
1234567 that time frame Manville was the supplier of the
1234567 asbestos for the Paco products
yes 1234567
A. He's listed on there
1234567
Q. Okay
1234567
A. But what you need to understand also if
1234567 may interject these types of lists were made up
1234567 periodically throughout the year so that we always
8 had record of raw material suppliers
9
Q. Okay
10
A. So when this one was madein 12 of '75 it
11 reflected that Manville was the supplier but
12 there could have been a list that was six months
13
before that or the one that's 12 of '74 could have
14 had a different supplier
15
Q. Sure It could have been Carey Canada
16
MR NANTZ Objection to form
17
A. Could have been
18
Q. By Mr. Coon Mr. Giffins did -- I might
Williams 19 have asked you this but did
20 any joint compounds or textures
make
21
A. Not that I know of when I was with them
22
Q. Okay sir And that would have been from
23 ~ 60s through '85
24
A. I went to work for them in '61 and left
25 them in '85
Page 228
123 Westco yes Thank you
123
Q. Any other ones come to mind
123
A. Drawing a blank
4
Q. Okay Mr. Giffins I want to next turn --
5 we have covered a lot of information with respect to
6 the various manufacturing facilities and the
T products that Moore made that -- that had
8 asbestos in them and I realize that at some point
9 in time after OSHA came out Moore took some
10 actions with respect to their products but instead
11 of going through them ad hoc I want to go back and
12 take a separate trail with you now sir and that is
13 what I call generally the internal corporate
14 information upon what Moore did and when they 15 did it and why they did it with respect to
16 asbestos
17
And there were a number of boxes that
|
18 Moore's produced to us in addition to some
19
other information that we have obtained from some
20 other sources all of which I think originated from
21 = Moore But I want to walk you through them
22 and just ask you if you have seen the documents
1223 _ before and if you know anything about them and
1223 maybe ask questions for you
25
I have tried to take most of these in
Page 227
12
Q. right And in the time frame of the
12
60s this is before you went to work at
3 Moore but do you have an understanding today
4 of who the competitors were in the Paco product
5 ~ lines with Moore through the 60s and 70s
6
A. Man Any name I would give you would be
7 speculation on the - on the names that am
g familiar with I am very -- you know Hamilton
9 been around for a long time In the bay area there
10 company called Westco that made material
'
11
Geez there is a lot of names that escape me at the
12 moment but to tie it into specific dates that's --
13 or time frames that's a little tough
14
Q. Okay Have you heard of a company called
15
Proco
16 17 18 19 822222 822222
822222 ~
822222
A. Oh sure Yeah I'm sorry
Q. Would they have been a competitor
A. They have been yes
Q. Synkoloid A. Synkoloidis more in patching I believe Q. Georgia Pacific which I think you
a_ ctually sold some rebranded stuff to correct
A. Correct
822222
Q. National Gypsum are you -- U.S. Gypsum
822222
A. That's the -- that's the one that bought

1 chronological order And in going through the
2 boxes when we had basically asked for information
3 concerning Moore's asbestos products and
4 internal documents concerning their discussion with
S asbestos the vast majority of the documents I have
6 received or at least been able to review were
.7 ~~ generated after 1972 or at least after the first of
8 the year in '72 In that regard I want to first
9 ask you about documents before '72 And you are not
correct 10 employed with Moore until '85
11
A. Thatis correct
12
Q. Have you ever been involved in
13 _ assimilating information on behalf of Moore
14 responsive to the asbestos litigation
15
MR HAZEN Objection form
16
A. What do you mean assimilating
17
Q. By Mr. Coon Well --
18
A. Actually collect -- going out and
19 collecting it
20
Q. Sure Have you ever been one of the
21
persons that was contacted by Moore at some
22 level saying can you help us get this information
23 This is what the attorneys have asked for this is
24 ~~ what somebody has asked for and we need you to try
25
to round this type of information up

123 A. have not It wasn't until April of 2001
123 when I got the call and asked to get involved with
123
this the first time I was aware of all that was
4 going on and I was never involved with actually
5 going around picking up documents and putting it
61 61
7 8 9 10
together Q. And in the years prior to 2001 you had not
been asked to just assimilate information not to be the corporate representative but just to assimilate information for somebody else who may be the
11 corporate representative
12
- A. Prior to April of 2001 my knowledge of
13
the as --- Paco and the asbestos issue would output
14 on the tip of pin
15
Q. Well basically you didn't go to work
16
there until a number of years until after most of
17 the Paco product lines had already been shut down
18
A. That's correct
19
Q. And so you here today to be the
20 corporate representative to discuss a lot of these
21
issues had to go back and look at historical
22 information and talk to people
222
A. Indicating
24
Q. And I think you have done that right
25
A. Oh yes sir
Page 232
1
information started to come out regarding the
2 asbestos All the information from OSHA began to
3 really start to surface and all the other
4 information So materials that I was looking at
5
was related to when the company was -- got involved
6 Anything I have seen is related to around that
7 period forward
8
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay With respect to the
9 product lines we know that Moore made
10 containing products going back to I think
11
1960 correct
12
A. Correct
13
Q. From that standpoint let me ask you first
14 separate line of questions before we get into
15
documents Do you know any -- from your talks with
16 Moore representatives -- you have talked to
17 Mr. Merrill correct
18
A. have sir
19
Q. Talked to a number of the other people
20
that were there back when Were you ever able to
21
determine that Moore had done any types of
22 testing of the Paco product lines before they
23
released them into the stream of commerce
22
MR HAZEN Objection form
25
A. What do you mean by testing
Page 231
1234
Q. Talked to a number of people that worked
1234
there back in the old days even before you were
1234 there and looked at a lot of these documents that
1234 Moore had in their repository
S
A. have gone through every box in that
6 repository and you're welcome to do it too
7
Q. How many boxes are there in the
8 repository
9
A. 88
;
10
Q. 88 boxes
11
A. Roughly 88
12
Q. And where are these additional records
13 kept In San Carlos
14
A. At San Carlos yes sir
15
Q. Are they kept in particular room that
16 just deals with these issues or is it part of a
17 larger repository of all their information
18
A. It's in room that's partitioned off and
19 it only contains documents relevant to this issue
20
Q. Okay In your reviews of that information
21
before did you see much in terms of the
22 correspondence internal memos and letters dealing
23 __ with these issues prior to 1972
24
MR HAZEN Objection form
25
A. No because it wasn't until '72 that the
Page 233
12
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay Testing with respect
12 to any potential health hazards associated with
3 asbestos in those products
4
A. We did testing of the product primarily
5 the application of the product how it went on that
6 type of deal
7
Q. Had to do with viscosity making sure it
8 adhered right making sure it didn't crack and peel
9 and chip
10
A. huh
11
Q. Just in terms of it being a product that
12
did what you said it would do
13
A. That's correct sir
14
Q. Okay With respect to potential health
15
hazards are you aware of any testing that was done
16 by Moore in the early years of their making of
17 this Paco product line as it related to any
18 potential health hazards with asbestos
19
MR HAZEN Objection form
20
A. Could you help me out and maybe give me
21
little bit idea or what kind -- I mean what do you
22 mean testing with health
23
Q. By Mr. Coon Well sure Did they do
22 anything to determine for instance in stirring up
25 the boxes or the bags of containing --

Let me back up Let's talk about just the
textures
A. Okay Q. And you had pounds bags of it right
powder form
;
A. Correct
Q. And you could add water and stir it up
Do you know if Moore ever did any dust testing to see how much asbestos dust or dust was released
from the dumping of the bag into a bucket adding
water and stirring it all up A. You have got to be talking about once it
got in the user's hands It would have to -Q. any point Even -- in the plant we can
talk separately about two different issues You're probably familiar with the difference between field
studies versus plant studies
A. Correct
Q. Okay Let's talk about first the field
studies Just with making the product were there any tests done at any point in time from 1960 when they made the product until -- when was it they
quit The late 70s A. Making it with asbestos
Q. Yes sir
Page 236 :
That doesn't indicate that something hadn't been
12
done
Q.
With respect to the asbestos in the
A products and your review of the records and
12 talking to anyone about this matter do you have a feel for when it was that Moore was first aware of -- let's talk about just diseases first -was first aware of the disease of asbestosis A. The first documentation that I have seen
that anything came to the table on diseases was in the spring of '72 when the Asbestos Institute sent a letter to Mr. Merrill I believe it was either
Mr. Merrill or Bob Miller saying that a certain
survey had been conducted and that there were some indications that exposure to dust over a long period of time could cause some health problems And that
was in the spring of '72 and that's the first thing
I have seen that was any indication from a medical
standpoint that there was a problem with asbestos
Q. Was -A. Where actually --excuse me where the
diseases were mentioned sir
Q. Right
A. Where there was a --
Q. Do you have an understanding as to whether
Page 235
A. '77
Q. '77 Okay From the 1960 to 1977 time frame was there any information you were able to determine where Moore did any testing of the
123 product in a field circumstance to determine the dust release and asbestos release in that dust
A. am not aware of what they did then
although I can tell you what we do today I think was basically how things were done then and that's
where two -- two aspects two things happened One when the product is made it's always
tested as far as the application and the performance
of the product And it's always geared to the painting contractor and how that professional is going to use the product We do that today and I believe that was done back in those days Was that philosophy still applied to Paco I -- it's part of our daily operating procedure so I would assume
maybe it was
There were times where you would go out and
take the product and go out on the job site and actually mix it so that we get a feel for that type of thing As far as tests doing a measurement of
how much dust was emitted from the material I have not seen anything that says that but I don't know
Page 237
or not Moore was what you call a subscriber to
12 workers compensation in Texas back in the 60s and 70s
A. What do you mean subscriber
Q. Did they have workers comp coverage for
9 their employees A. As far as I know we did Again it's an
assumption but I mean we do now Q. Okay Any reason to believe that they did
not have workers comp in your earlier days
A. Not if it was a requirement no Q. Okay Well I think an employer has the option of getting workers comp for their employees You don't know one way or another if they had
workers's comp
A. I can't answer that
Q. Do you know whether or not with respect
to the California facilities whether or not the employees were covered with workers comp
A. At what time period
Q. In the 60s
A. Well again I didn't come until '85 so from my own personal experience but I -- I don't
know for a fact if it did or it didn't I do know
that there is only indication of one workman's comp

claim that came out of the San Carlos factory and
that was in 1981. So -T and that person was working
3 in the plant for years prior to that Q. Okay And was going to ask you two
125 different lines of questions on that and you brought up the second line The first line was when you were aware or from -- there is probably a difference between when you were personally aware
9 versus when you believe the corporation was aware
but that Texas under it's workers compensation
prior to the time that Moore acquired the Paco product lines that under Texas law that you could have a recognized disease of asbestosis which was
compensable under the worker's compensation
statutes
MR HAZEN Object Q. By Mr. Coon Do you know -- do you know when Moore would have been aware of that
MR HAZEN Objection form
A. No I do not Q. By Mr. Coon And the same thing with
respect to California Do you know -- have any understanding of when Moore was aware that the California workers compensation statutes provided for the compensability of occupational dust disease
Page 240 :
record The time is 4:21 p.m. May 31st 2002
12 beginning of Tape 3 Q. By Mr. Coon Mr. Giffins I want to go
4 back to just a couple other things We have here -and unfortunately it's not even identified with a KM
12 number It's an attachment to a set of interrogatories Counsel show you as Exhibit A to the attached set but Moore had filed answers to discovery before You're familiar with interrogatories questionnaires you fill out file
with the court
A. Yes
Q. This was an Exhibit A attachment to a set that had been filed and listed are a number of the product lines that Paco made that had asbestos and it lists the years that those products were made as well as the years asbestos was discontinued in them Have you seen that before
A. I do not -- I don't recall seeing this particular sheet but I have seen something similar to this which lays out similar information but in
a little bit different format
Q. Okay Kind of shows you -- if we look at that it would tell us basically the composition of
Page 239
like asbestosis
MR HAZEN Objection form
4 A. No I don't know when that fit into workmen's comp We do all -1 we -- all of us know I believe that OSHA was promulgated back in '70 published in '71 and was about that time OSHA
9 dust controls which regulated the workplace indicated -- was coming out with Now if workmen's comp was prior to that I don't know that sir I really don't I assume it
came after that as it related to that because that's when the whole thing about asbestos started
to come forward
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay A. So I assume it would have been after
'70

Q. Okay If we can just -- 1 tell you what
I'll just draw in the bottom here that this was Exhibit A to interrogatory We will use that for
purposes of identification on the attachment Okay
were All right We
talking about from
historical context your review of Moore's
archives and things what they knew about asbestos
and you brought up -- we were talking about testing
for asbestos dust and you brought up a worker's
compensation claim and could you tell me --
A. Before we --
Q. -- little more about that A. Before we do that can I go back I want
to clar -- I think I need a clarification or we do

123
Q. Sure A. When you asked me about testing --
Q. Yes sir
123 A. --- for some reason I kept-- I was . responding to you in the time frame prior to OSHA which was '70 '71
Q. Right A. I thought that was what your question was
10
Q. Okay We can make it that if you need to
11
clarify it Prior to the OSHA Regulations was any
testing done by Moore of the atmospheric
1214
release of asbestos on their products
A. No.
Q. Okay
15 A. Not that I'm aware of
Q. Okay
16 A. Because there was testing done after that
17 point
19 Q. Sure
A. But again from that time frame I was
22 thinking in terms that you were asking me prior to
OSHA or prior to --
Q. Right
123123 A. -- the regulation
Page 244 F
information but in looking at it it indicated that
3 there were three occupational facilities -- three occupational injuries at that facility And then there was one looks like Item Number 22 one for dust disease to the lungs and there was one claim
6 at the facility that year as well Am I reading that correct right here in Line 22 A. says Dust diseases of the lungs one
9 number of cases involved permanent transfer one number of lost workdays one
10 Q. Do you have any idea what that related to A. No. It says Paco factory in 1974. I'm familiar with the form but I'm not familiar with
14 this particular one here Q. What would the Paco factory be since we
1920 know that there were several different Paco factories Do you know which Paco factory that was A. No. It's an OSHA form and -- but I can't
-- it's no way to tell which factory it is sir Q. And it indicates that there was a claim
for what's called pneumoconiosis You're aware that
21
asbestosis is a type of pneumoconiosis
13231321323
A. Yes sir
Q. Just -- it is a dust disease
A. Yes sir
Page 243
1234
Q. We will talk about that
A. Okay Q. One other note you had brought up an issue about a worker's compensation claim
1234 A. Yes sir Q. As I understood it you were aware of an employee of Moore making a claim for asbestos health problems back around '80
'81
A. The claim goes back it was filed in '81
yes
Q. Okay Is that the only one that you were aware of filed prior to 1980 that dealt with an
employee of a facility alleging some health related
problems from working around asbestos
A. A workman's comp claim
Q. Yes sir A. That is the only one yes sir
Q. have got -- counsel this is our Document 1145 BB 6497 -- this was a summary sheet
included in our forms that talk about the Paco
factories 1974. Have you seen that before
A. have seen a form similar to this yes
I don't know if it was this
Q. Well it doesn't provide a lot of
Page 245 |
Q. But you do not know from this or from any other information whether or not that individual had a specific claim for an asbestosis injury or some other form of dust disease there in the plant
12 A. No. do not Q. Okay Do you know if there were any other claims by any employees prior to 1980 for an injury associated with what I'll call more generically just occupational dust disease or pneumoconiosis versus a claim for asbestosis
A. am not aware of any -- the only workmen's comp information that I have seen relevant to any disease or any issue such as this was that
one that was filed in 1981 Q. Okay Now with respect to things other
than asbestosis you're familiar that asbestosis also causes other related problems such as lung cancer You're aware of that are you not
A. Well I guess it could I see them as three different issues or two different issues Jungs cancer and asbestosis being different
Q. Sure But you understand asbestos exposure to asbestos fibers can cause lung cancer
A. understand that could be th"ctould
happen yes

Q. Okay Now with respect to lung cancer are you aware of any of your employees at Moore at any of these Paco facilities making claim for workers compensation benefits for a
diagnosis of lung cancer as opposed to asbestosis
MR HAZEN At any time am just
_
trying to clarify Q. By Mr. Coon I'm sorry before 1980. You
have told us you were aware of just this one claim
in 1981 for asbestosis correct
A. Right
Q. And we know -A. Again it was a workman's comp claim and I'm not sure it was asbestosis but I'm aware that there was that one workman's comp claim in '81
Q. Okay I'm sorry maybe I misunderstood ,
Was the claim '81 for just a claim for exposure
to asbestos or was it a claim for asbestosis or was it lung cancer or do you know
A. No it was a claim by a gentleman by the
name of Waller Lawrence who had worked in the Paco
plant for sometime prior to that for payment of around -- an 806 800 of his medical bills And the prognosis the final determination that came
back from the doctor was that he did not have any
Page 248 i
1
that can cause mesothelioma
2
A. Well I -- to me on mesothelioma asbestos
:
3
can cause -- it's a fatal disease but -- and I am
E
4 no medical doctor for say
:
5
Q. Sure
:
6
A. And not -- but I also you understand
E
7 you can get that without being exposed to
4
8 asbestosis
i
9
Q. Do you have an understanding of what else
F
10
can cause mesothelioma --
1
A. No.
A
12
Q. -- other asbestos fibers
:
13
A. I do not
f
t! 14
Q. Okay Do you know whether or not you have
:
15 had any employees who have been diagnosed with
16 mesothelioma
;
17
A. I not
ff
18
Q. Do you know whether or not you had any
19 employees -- when I say employees I am talking
q
20
about ones that worked around any of your asbestos
:
21
facilities like the Paco facilities -- do you know
i
22 whether or not any of them have suffered a diagnosis
4
23 of a lung cancer
Hl
24
A. Again no I -- again the only thing I
i
25
have ever seen is that deal from 1981
f
Page 247
123
asbestos disease
2
Q. Okay So- So- and that was in 1980 or
123
'81
4
A. That was '81 sir
5
Q. And that's the first instance you're aware
6 of somebody thinking they may have some asbestos
7 related health problems from working around the
8 product at the plant
g
A. That's the only workmen's comp one that I
10 have seen yes sir
11
Q. Okay Are you aware of anyone prior to
12 that time having a claim for something that could be
13 more generic like lung cancer from just working at
14 the plant
15
A. No. I have not
16
Q. Are you familiar with a term called
17 mesothelioma
18
A. Yes sir
19
Q. Are you familiar that that's also another
20 highly associated cancer from working around
21
asbestos fibers
22
A. Mesothelioma can be caused by asbestos
222 but it also I believe can also be caused by other
222 things
25
Q. What's your understanding of other things
Page 249
i 1
Q. Okay And post '81 is that one in '81
;
2
the only one you have seen or was that the first
3
one you have seen
4
A. That's the only workmen's comp claim that
5
have seen
;

Q. Okay Who handles the workers
5
7 compensation issues at Moore Do those get
5
8 funneled through somewhere at -- in California or
9
Hurst or both or what
10
MR HAZEN Objection form
11

--
12 all end up in our personnel department

A. some point In San Carlos
15
Q. It's in San Carlos Is there a separate

20 department from other departments or is it where
21
they handle all of the financial issues and --
:
22
A. Well I can't answer that because --
:
23 medical records are confidential and so therefore
H
24
I don't know how they end up I do know that our
25 personnel department generally will get involved

where we have an issue with the workmen's comp claim
2 or something but where all those records are I
3 can't tell you for a fact
4
Q. Okay All right We were talking about
5 from the historical standpoint when it was your
6 understanding that Moore first had an
7
awareness of asbestos diseases and I want to first
8 ask you you were telling us about OSHA being in the
9 early 70s the entity that created a heightened
10
awareness at Moore with respect to these
11 potential problems Is that generally what you were
12 saying
13
A. I -- that's when I think we < we started
14
to get -- being aware of it but I don't think we
15 were the only ones I think the industry as whole -
16 became more aware of asbestos in the early 70s
17
Q. Was there an organization that dealt with
18 joint compounds and textured materials Was there a
19 Drywall Manufacturers Association or something
20
A. Well there probably was
21
Q. Do you know if there still exists any such
22 type of organization
23
A. I can't really say that
24
Q. Do you know whether or not Moore was
25 member of any organizations that dealt with these

called again A. The Dry -- Drywall Institute Trust Fund Q. Okay And what do you know about that
organization A. That's an organization that basically what
-- how do put it It was almost like a clearing house for drywall information and they provided
some information to us or we got some information
from them back in '82 relevant to what is starting to develop with asbestos
Q. Do you know how long that organization had
been in existence
A. I can't answer that
Q. Do you know how long Moore had been member of that organization
A. I don't ever think we were a member
Q. You just think you provided information from them although you were not a
member A. I think we may have gotten the information
because of one of raw material suppliers may have requested they send it to us or whatever but -
Q. Okay
A. But I don't believe we were ever a member
Q. Okay I don't have some documents here
Page 251 |
Page 253 f
1 specific product lines they made like the drywalls
2 texturing products
3
A. have not seen anything that would
4 indicate that we were members or associated with
5 any association in the drywall industry 6 Information was available to us through various
1
that I have reason to believe are in existence I
2 -
don't know if Moore has seen them but I have
3 seen them in other circumstancbeust one of your
4 raw material providers was Manville correct
5
A. Manville yes
6
Q. And you mentioned a couple others I think
,
7 organizations but I don't -- haven't seen anything 8 where we were an active member of any organization
9 or there is a couple organizations from the paint
10 side that we are involved with that goes back to
11
mid late 70s There is only one or two but as a
12 whole they're the only ones I can recall ever
13 seeing
14

12345
A. huh
12345
Q. Does Moore have those for the Paco
12345 product lines
S
A. Would we have made those up and supplied
6 . MSDS sheets
7
Q. Yes sir
8
A. You know I can't answer that It's a
9 good question I can't answer that
10
Q. If such documents had existed where would
11 they be kept
12
A. MSDS sheets became a requirement a
13 federal requirement at one point I don't know what
14
year that was So I am sure we would have done it
15 but I -- just -- I can't recall when that would
16 have happened
17
Q. am going to backtrack one more time
18
There was another document I found at the break
19
Counsel this one is KMX 183. It's ours KM 1239
20 We talked about these different Paco products
21
containing asbestos and there was a memo here See
22
if you have seen this It was to Mr. Merrill which
23 you talked about earlier that talked about asbestos
24
fibers in a paint product And were you aware that
25 Moore had made paints containing asbestos for
Page 256 4

different numbers were applied to those This --
;
: 2 here is right here You look at it Paco
R
3 products right here
4
Q. Okay And what are those Paco product
F
*
5 225 235 and 521
6
A. am not totally familiar with those
7 They obviously were very small volume
&
8
Q. Do we know what they looked like
ql
:
9
A. have no idea
10
Q. Do you know why they would have included
:
11 paint with asbestos
12
A. Well again it goes back to even that
13 terminology of that one dry product It was called
14 I believe texture paint Right
15
Q. Right
16
A. And that was dry So anything that would
17 be put on with an applicator other than a spray
18 unit or a trowel it could be applied with a brush
19
or textured with a brush they -- my -- it looks
20 like they called paint
21
Q. It indicates -- I think we read it here it
22 came in one three or gallon
23
A. It looks like one and five gallon pails
22
Q. One and five gallon pails
25
A. Right

I think it's about a year time frame
Wasn't it '63 to '68 A. don't know -- see these could be the
products that were -- there was a texture paint that
asbestos was also used in and I don't know if that was is any of these I think some of these numbers are I think from that Paco list
Q. You think that those were made -- you talking about the texture paint that we talked about in this earlier document
A. There was a dry powder and then I believe
there was also a liquid Q. Okay They have -- well maybe I didn't
understand You think there was a liquid texture paint as well as the powder that we talked about in
the bag
A. Texture paints were part of the industry
for many years in the early 70s Not just Moore but these numbers I -- I -- these look like they're Paco numbers You have that sheet that showed the reference Oh here we go
This doesn't have the numbers on it
Q. The texture paint is 5563 A. Yeah but it was also identified that was what's on the bag but there is a different -

123
Q. Okay
123
A. These are Paco products
123
Q. So those would have been under Paco
4
A. Yes sir
5
Q. Okay Going back to your product
6 suppliers you're not aware of Manville or Carey 7 Canadian or Union Carbide providing any types of
8 notices to Moore of any related
9 information concerning the raw asbestos they
10 provided at least before '71
11
MR NANTZ Objection form
12
A. am not aware that any information was
13 provided to Moore prior to '71
14
Q. By Mr. Coon And did either or
~
15 any of those three companies start providing
16 information or were you still using it as their
17 time line
18
MR NANTZ Objection form
19
A. you get into '72 I can answer your
20 question
22222
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay Let's go to '72
22222
A. Anything '71 and prior no
22222
Q. Okay '72 any information from any of
22222 the material providers
22222
A. We had that letter as I indicated from
NELL MCCALLUM & ASSOCIATES INC 713 861-0203
65 Pages 254 to 257
36766920-761c 00045a4bdea7
Page 258
the Drywall Institute and then in '73 Mr. Merrill attended a Manville -- Manville seminar
123 and whereby health issues and asbestos were
discussed and then in '72 we had information from
4 our Liberty Mutual who did the inspections on our plant and in one of their reports they mentioned in their detailed report about the aspects of the
8
diseases that asbestos could cause So around '72 is when all this information --
'72 and then into '73 is when it started to surface
Q. Okay If we go back here I have got January of '72 - we have got a number of documents here I am going to try run through here pretty
quickly with you sir but we have got 1058. This
was a letter to Mr. Merrill from the vice president
of sales at Carey Canadian and it attached with it the EPA proposed regulations dealing with asbestos You're familiar with those are you not
A. Yes sir
Q. And that's kind of what you were talking about awhile ago that OSHA was coming in and that
was part of the EPA project to start restricting or controlling the -- the dust released from asbestos
A. Yeah OSHA controlled the workplace
Q. And in the OSHA or EPA's desire to protect
looking at other fibers as a replacement for their asbestos and to look at eliminating asbestos as a
raw material in their formulations correct
_
A. It says In view of the hard look that is
being taken at asbestos we have started to look at
10 other fibers as replacement Yes that is correct
And this is February of '72
Q. Okay And what did Moore do
following that memo with respect to following up
10
with the recommendations made
A. Recommendations as to what
1
13 _
15 15
Q. Recommendations made by Mr. Murphy with respect to looking for substitutes for asbestos and
eliminating it in their formulations
A. Based on the information I have seen
there was a very concentrated effort to begin to
1717
look for substitutes A lot of different aspects
18
were looked at In fact Mr. Merrill who was the
2019
chemist at the time or was involved with the
chemistry of putting the products together between
2121 '72 and '77 actually worked on around 236 different
formulas to revise those products
2 22 2 Q. And when did products first become revised as a result of this additional research
222
A. Well the first one was in '73 when we
Page 259
the levels of dust in the workplace that would
123 concomitantly result in the ability to continue to make the product based on keeping the dust counts
1234 low enough in the factory to make the product A. OSHA set requirements as to what were
acceptable airborne contents yes
Q. Okay And we know at least as to '72 that 8 the manufacturers were trying to keep Moore 9 abreast with respect to ongoing developments with
respect to the potential for regula -- federal regulation of asbestos
A. Indicating Q. Correct
A. Can I see this
Q. Sure
A. Sure This is the letter to Mr. Merrill
dated January the 24th 1972 indicating that he was attaching the federal register regulations for proposed standards and advising us that there was a hearing slated for a certain date
Q. Okay And shortly after that we have
1022. We a have letter dated February of '72 from
Dan Murphy at Paco to Mr. Merrill and other Moore representatives that states at Page 2 that due to those issues Moore needed to start
Page 261 :
1
came out with the asbestos wall texture
2 Q. Was this a Paco product A. Yes sir
Q. And over the next number of years how
4 long was it before asbestos was phased out of all of the Paco products
A. That was phased out '77 But between
9
'72 and '77 there were formulas that were revised
and different raw materials were looked at to get
the product -- to substitute the asbestos The
asbestos was taken out of some of the products in
different percentages and went from a six percent
'
down to maybe a two We had a couple of
asbestos products but in '77 asbestos was out
of everything
Q. Okay I would take it one of the
:
immediate concerns at Moore would have been to
continue to be able to make the product the Paco
products and stay in compliance with the new OSHA restrictions on the dust counts within the facility
A. Yes sir
Q. Do you know -A. And we did
Q. Do you know what was done by Moore
as a result of the new OSHA standards on the dust

releases to get them within compliance to the new
2
standards
3 4 S
6 ,
7
A. Yes And -- boy maybe this is a time
too to clarify something I want to go back to prior to the break when you were asking me about testing Okay I had in my mind that it was prior
'70 and I want to make sure we don't get messed
8
up here
9
Our testing was done -- a lot -- some testing
10 was done beginning in '72 because of Liberty Mutual
11
was our industrial hygienist We also did some
12 product testing '75 So there were tests -13 there was testing done on the products but I
14 believe I may have mislead you because I thought you
15 were asking me about '70 prior to '70
16
As it relates to this what did Moore do
17
to bring to -- to comply with OSHA we had the
18 industrial hygienist visit the plants check them
19
and make -- tell us what we needed to correct and we
20 corrected them
21
A whole new exhaust system was installed in San
22 Carlos The respirators were made available to the
223
employees on -- on a regular basis There were
223 physical examinations done from that point on for
25 new hires existing people and on terminations
Page 264
1
Q. By Mr. Coon Did Moore devise them
2 Where did that language come from
3
A. Oh the language was provided by OSHA
4
Q. Okay
5
A. By the government
6
Q. Okay So they said this is the minimum
7 you have to provide on your bags so that's what
8 = you did
9
MR HAZEN Objection form
10
A. No they didn't say minimum If you read
11 the OSHA requirements specifically says you shall
12
put this statement on your material
13
Q. By Mr. Coon Did it restrict the ability
14 of Moore to provide any additional
15 _ precautionary language on their bags
16
A. I don't recall in the regulation itself if
17
it allowed for additional but I -- they were very
18
emphatic in what was to go on as far as what they
19
wanted on the bag
20
Q. Okay For instance as a result of the
21
OSHA involvement in '72 certainly you would agree
22
that Moore was aware by then asbestos caused
23 asbestosis lung cancer mesothelioma
24
MR HAZEN Objection form
25
A. I can't say that sir

Handling of the clothing everything So we responded to everything that was
required by OSHA and our industrial hygienist to
comply with the law
MS YANOF Object to
responsiveness Q. By Mr. Coon And one of the things that
was done as I understand it were to comply with government regulations was to provide a notice on the bags the Paco bags that the products contained
- asbestos
A. That was one of OSHA's requirements
correct
Q. Right And as a result of the OSHA
mandate to inform the purchasers of the product
Moore provided what we looked at earlier on these photos of the bags of what was described as a cautionary label We can go back and look at 1030 I think they all read the same It says --
A. Yeah Caution contains asbestos fibers
~~ avoid creating dust breathing asbestos dust may
cause serious bodily harm Q. Now with respect to those types of
cautionary labels who devised those at Moore MR HAZEN Objection form
Page 265
12
Q. By Mr. Coon Are you --
12
A. First indication of the disease asbestos
3
mesothelioma seemed to come out of that
4 Manville seminar which was in 1973
S
Q. Okay Did the labeling that we looked at
6 on those photos ever change for the duration of the
7 time that Moore continued to make Paco
8 products with asbestos in them
9
A. No sir
10
Q. So
11
A. Well excuse me
12
Q. Yes sir
13
A. What label are you talking about
14
Q. The labeling that we have on the bags I
15 think they all read the same on the photos there
16
Did that labeling ever change over the next few
17 years that Moore continued to make products
18 with asbestos in them
19
A. Are you talking about the caution label
20
Q. Yes sir
21
A. No. That was -- that was the label that
22 23 .
was the products until day one -- from day one Q. Okay And we do know that the product was
22 mademade through '77 or '78 correct
A. '77

Q. least some with asbestos in them
2
A. Right
3
Q. And some was still sold in 1978 with
4 asbestos
5
A. Yes We could have sold it through --
6
well you could even have sold some of the -- the
7 spray textures after '78 but basically through '78
;
8
was the end yes
9
Q. And to the best of your knowledge the
10 label that we just described that was one put on in
11
72 did not change over the remaining years that
12 they sold the products
13
A. That is correct In fact I think that's
14 still part of the OSHA requirement today I don't
15 think that ever changed
16
Q. Mr. Giffins next have a memo this one is
17 KMX 1938 it's ours 1056. It's dated April '72 and
18
I want to turn your attention to the second page of
19 this document It talks about major problems being
a
20 developed
21

A. Okay
2222
MR HAZEN I Can look at that real
25 = quick
Page 268

Did I read that correct
2
A. Yeah they were indicating there was
3 possible asbestos asbestosis exposures
4
Q. Okay And this is back in - this is
,
5 '72 right
6
A. April of '72
7
Q. April So we know that at least
8 Moore's discussions with their carrier in '72
9 that that was something that they were made aware
of
11
A. As I say it was in '72 that we started to
12 become aware Liberty Mutual was the first one that
13 reported back to us any aspect about a disease and 14 then subsequently our seminar that we went to with
15 Manville where it talked about diseases
16
Q. Okay Now let's talk about this next one
17 real quick This was a document from Drywall
18 Industry Trust Fund that you talked about And as
19 early as the summer of '72 they sent a letter to
20 Mr. Pickens and he is president to the Paco
21
Textures Do you know them
22
A. I know of him
23
Q. Okay Do you know Paco Texture Is that

THE WITNESS Sure can
Q. By Mr. Coon Let me show you this one while he is looking at that one Are you done
MR HAZEN Just one second
MR COON am trying to cover a , lot of ground in a short period of time Scott
A. That happens to be -- that happens to be the top sheets distribution to various corporate executives and the rest of it has to do with a report that was prepared by Liberty Mutual which was our industrial hygienist after their visit to the
plant in April of '72 Q. By Mr. Coon And their visit was
promulgated or precipitated by the OSHA regs ' A. OSHA Regulations Q. Okay And if we look at the second page
there it talks about concerns MR COON If can have it back
real quick counsel
MR HAZEN Okay Q. By Mr. Coon Page 2 under Line 8 major problems are being developed by -- and it lists two as material handling and then B potential asbestosis exposures in drywall products departments in mixing dry ingredients and filling containers

Q. That should be Paco that's you guys
right
A. Yeah Paco Q. And this letter is sent from Mr. Spence as
Safety Committee Chairman from the Drywall Industry Trust advising him as president that they had been in attendance to meetings with Dr. Irving
Selikoff it says Selikoff's -- it's Selikoff Do
you know or have you heard of Dr. Selikoff
A. Sure have
Q. Okay It talks about his studies at that time showing that there was a significant increased
risk of lung cancer amongst those in the sheetrock
taping industry correct A. It talks about the three study that
-- on the effects of dust that is correct Q. Okay So we know that as of the summer of
'72 the president of Paco Textures had been
apprised of studies showing that people that worked
in that industry were susceptible to cancer of the lung from working around those products
A. Well it talks of -- it talks about that
fact about cancer yes But again it's like I said
earlier this was -- we got this information when
- you asked me about when did we start to learn

1 about the issues It came with an industrial
2 hygienist inspection this letter and
3 Manville's seminar
4 5 6. 4 7
Q. Okay But we do know that for the next seven or eight years there was still no additional
supplemental warnings or cautionaries on the bags
that contained asbestos from Moore that the
8 products could cause asbestosis or the products
9 could cause lung cancer exposure to the asbestos in ,
10 those products
11
A. Well I don't know what else you can say
12
except what that -- the caution I think that's
13 pretty explanatory
14
Q. Okay Well and understand that your
15 standing by the precaution that's on there but you
16
would agree that the caution does not say that you
17 can get asbestosis does it
18
A. Well it doesn't say that but it says it
19
can -- cause serious bodily harm
20
Q. It does not say you can get lung cancer
21
does it
22
A. does not It says serious bodily harm
23
Q. But never did say you could get cancer
24 from it
25
A. Well when -- I interpret it as being very

Q. By Mr. Coon And after that there are
22 additional follow meetings in October '72 and
23 there was Bob Miller on this committee Do you know
24 who Bob Miller was
25
A. Yes He was the plant manager
Page 271
12
emphatic that it could cause some kind of major
2 problem regardless if it's cancer or whatever
3
Q. Now you told us that as a result of the
4 Liberty Mutual meetings and the OSHA mandates that
5 the Paco facilities initiated some additional
6 protocols One would be chest rays for the 7 employees you had to start doing each year correct
|
8
A. Correct
9
Q. And that was because they were at high
10 risk of getting lung disease from working around
11 asbestos correct
12
MR HAZEN Objection form
13
Q. By Mr. Coon So you had to monitor
14 that
15
A. I would just -- I don't know if high risk
16 is an appropriate word but they were at risk yes
17
Q. They were at risk They were at higher
18 risk than a nonexposed population
19
A. Possibly
20
Q. And so Moore initiated programs with
21 respect to their own employees to give them an
22
annual chest ray -- chest ray correct
222
A. Correct

15 that we see the cautionary labels that are on the
16 various pictures that we talked about earlier
17
A. Yeah This is when -- when OSHA came down
18 and started to perm -- and publish the regulations
19 this was part of it that the warning had to be put
20 there This addresses that And so to comply
21 immediately we had -- they had pressure sensitive
22 stickers made up and put on the bags until all of
23 the bags could have the actual caut, ion that you see

meeting
123 A. Yes Q. Okay So in October of '72 we -- we start putting -- or preparing for labels for the
bags
A. Yes
9 Q. And then we have KMX 1379 shortly thereafter is when it was necessary to put in the vent -- ventilation equipment to further reduce the dust counts in the manufacturing facilities where
they were making the Paco products
A. Yes This was --
Q. Okay A. This is just information from Mr. Merrill to Bob Miller of the activities that were taking place relevant to OSHA and the labeling . Q. Okay And subsequent to that -- and counsel this is KMX 0619 our document 1257. It's dated January 4 '73 from Liberty Mutual They actually did an industrial hygiene study at the -one of the Moore facilities This is at the Ontario plant in California They made Paco
products there correct

A. Yeah it did indicate that the fibers in
~ the areas that were tested where the samples were
taken did exceed five fibers which was the -- I
think that's a five It has to be

standard was before the OSHA reduction of the --
A. 12
Q. You think it was 12 fibers per cubic
centimeter
A. Yeah
Q. Do you know what it was before that
A. No.
Q. Okay A. The five was an emergency deal They came
out and said we're going to do 5 to get the thing
going
Q. Okay And Liberty Mutual tested the other
Page 275
A. they were the ones who inspected most
123 of our plants Q. Okay A. Okay Q. And in their inspection of the facility
5 for the atmospheric asbestos dust counts it was determined that the levels exceeded the permissible
9 limits for the employees correct MR HAZEN Objection form A. This letter is dated January 4th 1973 Q. By Mr. Coon Can we just read the first couple sentences off the second paragraph A. That's what I am reading MR HAZEN And Mr. Giffins I am going to caution you to take your time to read each and every document 11 THE WITNESS Yeah I am
MR HAZEN -- that you're being asked to We're not going to start rushing at this
point No need to

Q. Do you know what the general results were from the other inspections of the other facilities
around that same time frame A. The San Carlos one needed some work which
you indicated but from what -- everything that I
have been able to see and detect as soon as
anything was determined that was out of line with what the requirements were corrective action was taken immediately to get it fixed
Q. Okay Do you know whether or not Moore had initiated any industrial hygiene
inspections of those facilities before OSHA
A. can't answer that I don't know for
sure I believe there were people that inspected the plants for a period of time Whether it was Liberty Mutual prior to OSHA or not I don't know
sir
Q. Okay Now there were some additional
regulations that dealt with spray products in the
'72 standards correct

- at that time a ban that went into effect

asbestos applications
A. OSHA addressed the condition of the
workplace both in the factory and where the people when they used the product Okay They -- there
was ban by the Consumer Products Safety Commission I believe '78 which forbid the use
10 of asbestos in joint compounds
11
Prior to that everything was from -- if am
12 answering your question correctly based on the
13 standard established by OSHA which was the 5 fibers
14 per milliliter Now they also banned the use of
15 asbestos in fire retardant and pipefitting 16 stuff which was the main issue That was banned I
17 believe early in -- in '73 7 -- '72 '73
18
Q. That would have been thermal insulation
19 and spray applications --
20
A. Right
21
Q. -- for fireproofing
22
A. That's right Did not affect the products
223 that Moore was making at the time
223
Q. And think there was some concern
223 reading through the correspondence there was a

Carbide and you told us earlier that Liberty Mutual
was your company -- I take it Liberty Mutual was
all's -- they were probably your workers
compensation carrier I would guess is that
correct
A. huh
Q. Okay And so they wanted to initiate
these dust counts within your facilities for
purposes of the workers comp MR HAZEN Objection form
A. Could you repeat that please Q. By Mr. Coon Yes sir A. I was looking at this and not paying
attention to you
Q. I'm sorry I was asking a question while
you were reading something I would assume Liberty Mutual was out doing
dust counts at the plants for purposes of the
workers comp premiums A. For workmen's comp premiums You mean to
take the counts for their benefit Q. Well if -- if Liberty Mutual is your
workers compensation carrier they probably want to
~ get some idea of what the risk issues are and want
to go out and inspect the plant for overall plant
Page 279
I
general concern to some degree at Moore that
2 the ban on spraying asbestos for fireproofing could
3 apply to the spray application of the textures
4 and joint compounds
S
A. That is correct And we inquired with the
6 E EPA to find out if in fact our products were
7 covered and they said no
8
Q. They said it just applied for those
9 fireproofing purposes
10
A. That is correct sir
11
Q. Did not apply for tex screening and so
12 therefore Moore made the decision they could
13 continue to make that product and not be afoul of
14 OSHA regs
15
MR HAZEN Objection form
16
A. Well OSHA said you could continue to make
17 the product if you met these qualifications We met
18 the qualifications
19
MR COON Next we have 0168

21
MR HAZEN Okay
22
Q. By Mr. Coon This one is dated November
23 13 73. It appears to be another industrial
122 hygiene sample It's called Airborne Asbestos
122 Fiber Counts And these were collected by Union
Page 281
12
conditions because they're going to have to cover
12 the medical bills for employees right
3
A. Sounds logical
4
Q. Okay I am -- was there any other reason
5 that Liberty Mutual was the one selected to do your
6 _ industrial hygiene studies
7
A. I can't answer that
8
Q. Okay
9
A. know they did them and as I say they
10 may have even been doing studies prior to OSHA
11
Q. But they were not an industrial hygiene
12 organization Liberty Mutual was not They're an
13 insurance company
14
A. Yeah but they -- I believe they have a
15 division which does that They have people that go
16 out and do the inspections and measure --
17
Q. Sure
18
A. -- which they did
all's 19
Q. Right And they went out to
20 plants because they were your -- you were their
21 insured Moore was their insured
22
A. agree with you I guess
23
Q. Okay Well I was presuming that but did
24 not know I mean were you hiring Liberty
25 Mutual to come out and inspect them because they had

Page 282
12345 industrial hygiene division or were you
12345 doing it because they were your insurance carrier
12345
A. can't answer that I wasn't there I
12345
don't know how that came about
12345
Q. Okay
;
6
A. But I know they did inspect the plant and
7 they told us where we complied and where we didn't 8 comply and as a result of that we did what they
9
asked us to do
10
Q. Okay And so where you were out of
11 compliance where the dust counts were too high you
12 had to go in and provide additional ventilation or 13 other procedures to lower the counts to get them
14 _ within the OSHA limits as set at that time
15
A. That's correct
16
MR HAZEN Object to form
17

THE VIDEOGRAPHER Going off the
222 record at 5:10
Page 284 :
12 the industrial hygiene studies found the excess 2 fiber counts this was a follow letter to the 3 employees to let them know that that was an issue 4 and that there were going to be certain protocols 5 with respect to OSHA and trying to get into
6 compliance
7
A. assume that's what that implies yes
8 sir
9
Q. Okay Now one of the things it talked
10
about in here -- I want to turn your attention to
11
number 3. It says Rotation of -- there you go
12 Got Rotation of schedules to minimize
11 :
13
exposure
14
A. Correct
15
Q. Do you know what that means
16
A. Part of original OSHA requirement said
17 _ that if you were in -- if in fact an area was not
18 in compliance you had the ability to rotate people
19 until you brought it into compliance
20
Q. Okay And that was because OSHA
21 Regulations had a certain level of permissible
22 exposure in a given hour based on an eight
23 ~
22
day correct A. On eight day it was -- based on
25
an average it was five

123
A recess was taken

THE VIDEOGRAPHER Back on the
123 record The time is 5:38

Q. By Mr. Coon Ready
5
A. Yes sorry
6
Q. Mr. Giffins we next have 1061. Counsel
7
this was your document 1380
oe
8
MR HAZEN Okay
9
Q. By Mr. Coon This is July 25 '72 It
10 appears to be addressed to each employee at Paco
11
textures Would that be at all their facilities
12 that were in place in 1972
13
A. It appears it would be yes
14
Q. Okay And subject is Paco status
15
A. Paco status concerning OSHA requirements
16 for asbestos exposure
17
Q. Okay And what was the first statement
18 for Mr. Merrill
19
A. He says You should be aware that we are
222222 presently exceeding the exposure limit set by the
222222 Occupational Safety and Health Act for asbestos
222222 ~ And this was a result of the Liberty Mutual -
222222
Q. Okay
222222
A.
v isit which was prior to this
222222
Q. So when Liberty Mutual came out and did
Page 285 :
l
Q. Right And are you familiar with the TWA
2 You know what that meant
3
A. TWA
4
Q. The time weight average
5
A. Oh I've heard of it but --
6
Q. Did you know how the OSHA standards took
7 place with respect to measuring the fiber counts in
8 the particular areas of the plant
9
A. I failed
10
Q. Okay Are you aware I take it you are
11
aware that if the amounts of dust exceeded the
12 13
14 |
15
permissible amount on an hourly basis that what you would do is you could have an employee just work there a few hours a day and get a full day's dose
and then be taken out of that area where he's not
16 exposed anymore
17
A. could go up to a maximum I believe of
18 10 over that eight period if it did not exceed
19 five hours per day
20
Q. So what Moore decided to do
21 apparently from this memo was to take employees 22 that normally worked eight hours a day in certain
23 areas that were getting overexposed under those
24 OSHA limits and to say you're not going to work
25 there eight hours anymore you're going to work

MR HAZEN Objection form
3
4
A. Well that says that you could do that
4
5
Whether they did or not sir I don't know
5
61
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay Well it did say
6
7 that we are taking the following actions to comply
7
8 with the requirements
8
9
A. That is correct
9
10
Q. So by all indications from Mr. Merrill
10
11
one of the ways Moore was going to continue to
11
12 keep their plants fully operational was to rotate
12
13 people out of the exposure areas
13
14
MR HAZEN Objection form
14
15
A. Again that was a -- that was a process
15
16
that was provided or OSHA said could be done within
16
17 -- within their guidelines
17
18
Q. By Mr. Coon Sure I mean OSHA allowed
18
19
y'all to rotate them out
19
20
A. That's correct
20
21
Q. So y'all did it right
21
22
A. That's correct
22
2323
So y'all are playing with within the
.23
2323 ~ rules --
22
2323
A. Right
25
Page 288 ei
A. I can't answer that sir I don't know what they knew at that time other than what I have
read
Q. Did the employees that worked out at the Paco facilities all have uniforms that they left
there every day A. They wore certain -- I don't know -- like
coveralls I would have to say Something like
that
Q. Were these provided by the plant or were these their own that they brought as part of their
regular attire A. I can't answer that I don't know if they
were provided or not Q. Okay We next have this letter from the
Drywall Industry Trust Fund I think you mentioned them earlier Actually I think we discussed this
one
A. Yes
Q. Okay I want to ask you one other thing
here Did you know Mr. Spence
:
A. Mr. Spence from the Drywall Industry Trust
i
; Fund
Q. Right
:
A. No.
2
Page 287

Q. -- but you're not -- but to play within
2
the rules your guy couldn't even work there for an
3 eight shift
;
4
MR HAZEN Objection form
S
Q. By Mr. Coon That's why you had to
6 rotate them out right
7
A. Yes
8
Q. Okay And one of the other things it
9 mentions that Moore decided to do was improve
10 the handling of work clothes Do you know what that
11
addressed
12
A. Specifically I don't know what they did
13 then but at the -- when they put all that
14 ultimately into effect a lot of the clothing was 15 put in bags when they were changed And the way 16 they dusted themselves off was looked at 17 differently I can't get into the specifics of what 18 was actually implemented but it all had to do to 19 comply with the handling of the clothing in line
20 with OSHA Regulations
21
Q. Do you know whether or not Moore was
22 aware at that time with the employees having the
1222 clothing on their -- the dust on their clothing that 1222 that could be taken outside the workplace taken
25 back to their vehicles back to their homes
y
Page 289 H
1234
Q. Did you have any involvement with the
F
1234 Drywall Industry Trust Fund
1234
A. No sir
:
4
Q. From the times you worked there from '85
:
56 since do you know whether or not that organization
6
is even still in existence
7
A. can't tell you that
8
Q. Do you know if there were any other
9 organizations like the Drywall Industry Trust Fund
10
A. cannot tell you that sir
11
Q. Okay Well this one said for the
12 advancement of drywall in California Do you know
13 if they had a state type of organization
14 they had the same type of deal in Texas for _
15 instance
16
A. I don't know that for a fact
17
Q. Do you know if there was any national
18 industry like the drywall industry If there was a
19 national organization
20
A. I don't think I have seen anything so --
21
but it doesn't mean there wasn't
22

23
about this one yet This is KM 1060

would guess Mr. Marquardt and Bob Scudder
12 A. This was -- this is production meeting notes meetings where they -- they had a meeting and
took notes
S12 Q. Okay Who took the notes Do you know A. don't know who took the notes
Q. Okay Now we were talking about this one
I think before we took that break This is where it
said Bob Miller reports that the latest bulletin
on the use of asbestos in joint cement and paint products indicate we will not have to eliminate it
M
from our formulations immediately
A. However it will be necessary for us to
provide proper respiration devices for men and have lung rays made of the workers at least once
each two years Further information on this will be
put out to each of the manufacturing operations by
Bob Miller
.
MS HAAG Object to the
nonresponsive portions
Q. By Mr. Coon All right Do you know as a result of this what was done by this group Let
me ask first who are these guys Was there a
separate committee of representatives of Moore that just dealt with these kind of issues with Paco
Page 292
A. So this was prior to even the industrial hygienist coming in to -- this was right after all this started to surface So what they're passing
on is information to the group that were
4 responsible this is what we know -- we've heard this but there is some -- a lot of it kept changing and kept getting added to Q. Sure And as I read this it said that -I thought what was relevant here where it said we will not have to eliminate -- when we're talking about asbestos says we will not have to eliminate from our formulas immediately Could you tell from that and other correspondence in your historical review if they had reason to believe that there was still going to be additional restrictions coming down the pipeline to where asbestos was going to have to be excluded MR HAZEN Objection form A. I can't read that into this What I can
read into this is there was a misinterpretation on what their requirements were originally and they
~
may have thought at a prior meeting that they had eliminated it entirely and since found out that was not the case That's the only way I can interpret
that sir
Page 291
123 after OSHA came out _
A. No. can tell you Doug Miller -- or Doug
123 Merrill -- yeah Doug Merrill was the chemist for
the Paco products Bob Miller is in charge of the
123 plants Bill Moore owned the company Dan Murphy . am not sure what -- he had something to do with
the plant Walter Pickens was president of Paco at
Oo
that time
Q .. Okay
A. Okay
;
Q. Was -- could you tell from this that there
was an understanding or impression from the people
involved particularly from the reporting of
Mr. Merrill that the first phase of the OSHA
Regulations of 1972 were going to result in the
future with additional restrictions
MR HAZEN Objection form
A. I think the only way I can answer your
question your comment is around this time there was a whole bunch of different information coming
down And in fact I think if you look at this it says Lung rays made of workers at least once
every two years The final regulation said they
had to be done every year
Q. By Mr. Coon Right
Page 293 Ff
1
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay Earlier you also
talked to us about the Manville program And
3 you talked about the notice that Moore had with respect to asbestos hazards You talked about
S OSHA and then the Manville program
9 A. Manville seminar Q. Yes sir We have what's KM 1002 and 1014. This appears to be a cover letter form
letter sent by Manville to the various customers advising them of this program and that there was a
_ transcript available and this was also in your
repository which is the transcript of the symposium ;
itself dated December 3 and 4 --
A. Correct
Q. -- 1973 titled Asbestos and Health Presentation And obviously that was a program
that was called pretty much just to discuss asbestos
and its health ramifications Do you know if there
was --
A. Plus that same program they talked about the industry as a whole and where they fit in -fit it into the industry and duh duh duh as well
It was a purpose meeting Q. Do you know whether or not there were any
attendees of this program that were representatives

,
5
A. Yes sir
6
Q. And do you know where this program was
:
= 7 held
8
A. Somewhere in San Francisco
9
Q. So we could pretty much presume that the
10 contents of this seminar if the notes were all
11 taken accurately were things that would have been
12 conveyed to Mr. Merrill as a result of being at the
13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22
meeting A. understand it Mr. Merrill attended
the meeting took notes was able to -- they handed
out some material for him to bring back This
letter confirms his attendance and the fact that
they are going to send out the transcripts the hard copies from the meeting for his further review
~~ And that's what those are
Q. Okay Now obviously if you -- have you
had an opportunity to read this the transcript of
23 the symposium
22
A. Yes sir
25
Q. Okay And you are aware that in it it

14
it looks -- it's got ME I guess it meant Paco
15 production meetings
16
Q. By Mr. Coon It talked about -- I think
17
one of the things that was discussed here is the
_ 18 potential for reformulating their product
19
A. Yeah You want me to read it
20
Q. Yeah if you don't mind
21
A. Okay Paragraph 3 says The change in
22 our acoustic formula using a different form of
23
asbestos instead of titanium has worked out very
22 well in our field tests We have had no complaints
25
and some customers actually like it better It has

talked about various health problems associated with
asbestos which --
A. Right Q. -- included asbestosis lung cancer and
mesothelioma
;
A. I don't know if it mentions each -- the
three of them but it does talk about their -- I
don't recall each three but it does talk about
health issues yes
Q. Okay I'll even point you to some pages Page 6 of the transcript specifically talking about
different disease categories Do you understand
bronchogenic cancer to be lung cancer
A. Right
Q. Right
A. Okay
Q. And of course talks about mesothelioma
here right
A. Correct
Q. So we know that at least by late '73 Mr. Merrill as a senior spokesperson for Moore is aware of these issues being caused
and associated to asbestos A. Those were brought up in that seminar
also but I think if you read some of the other
Page 297
1
resulted in a lower cost for us therefore it has
agreed 2
been
that we will make this change in the
3 formula and not indicate it on the bag However we
4 will be making some batches of the old material
S until the present raw material supply is used up
.6
Because of this decrease in cost we will not have
7
to -- I believe that word is -- increase the price
8
of our acoustic
9
I can't read those next two words With an --
10 something about the next price increase
11
This applies to 6373 B and L formulas only
12
Q. Do you know who the provider was of the
13 other types of asbestos that were being substituted
14
A. They were testing the Union Carbide
3
15 product
16
Q. And do you know what the purpose of
17 substituting these products were other than the
18 price Appears that there was something that
19 triggered the substitute
20
MR NANTZ Objection form
21
A. My understanding is that -- that material
22 is being tested was the raw material that was being
23 promoted by Union Carbide at the time provided a
24 few benefits One being that it came with titanium
fused to the fiber Normally most of the fiber you

36766920-761c 00045a4bd-
Page 298
12
buy you got to put the asbestos in and then you put
12 titanium in
3
What they were calling -- I think it was HPO or
4 something --- came with the fiber and titanium glued
5
onto it You know I'm not a technical person so
6
don't hold me to it And as a result you also
7 ~~ didn't have to buy titanium and put in it and they
8 also were saying that you would use less asbestos
9 because it was a higher efficient fiber
10
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay Next we have --
11
MR NANTZ What was the number on
12 _ that
13
MR COON 1051. This is -- ours is
1063
15
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay Next you got 1051
16 This is the full content of a document we discussed
17 earlier I'll be real brief with this We
18 discussed this one here This is the occupational
19 injuries and illnesses We talked about the one
20 person indicated here in '74 as having a dust
21 ~~ disease Do you remember that
22
A. Indicated they thought they had a dust
23 disease yes
22
Q. And if we look back at the rest of this
25 attachment includes some additional forms and
Page 300
~~~ asbestos ceiling texture That was ceiling
~~~ texture formula that was developed back in '73
3
Q. So we now have a substitute for the
4 ceiling that's a asbestos
5
A. Yes We had that since '73
6
Q. Okay And the standard formula still
7 contained a small percentage of asbestos apparently
8
A. In California California back in '75
9 regulated the amount of asbestos that could be in --
10
excuse me -- spray material ceiling textures
11
And they -- they just came out and first said you
12 could have no more than half of one percent
13
Fortunately the company had developed that
14 ceiling texture formula for California in '73 so
15 the only thing that was really pushed by this was
16
the wall texture issue
17
Q. right So you had a couple of issues
18
One was compliance with the OSHA regs that come out
19 in 1972 and then you still may have a
20 __ state compliance issue based on the
21
vagaries of state law
2322
A. California --
2322
Q. California being one
2322
A. -- came out with their own regulations
2322
Q. Sure

production manager --
A. Can I clarify this
Q. Sure if you don't mind
A. When you showed this to me I didn't -
remember but I hadn't seen this until recently There was an indication with a worker in the plant by name of Bowers I can't think of his first name Martin Bowers maybe I don't know Something like that And the ray indicated that -_
there was a spot and it was determined that the
spot was not caused by asbestos
Q. Okay A. And that's maybe what this is Okay Q. And would the person signing off there have been production manager at that particular -A. Doug Merrill Q. Okay That's Doug A. Yes
Q. Next we have a series I think of three or
four documents This one is KM 1110 prior KM Number 5327. This was from Doug Merrill again to Bill Freeman It's dated June 27 1975. And there
are three or four letters there memos
A. Okay This one is addressing the fact
that he is sending him some material of a

That's correct And what he's saying here is we had this asbestos product that we can make for you try this formula See if it works with your people But there was also the asbestos product that was available in other plants outside of California because it was still -- you know it was satisfactory to go ahead and make it
Q. You could use it in states other than
California
10
A. You sure could

Q. Okay But it was something that California statutes had precluded use of
A. In June or July of '75 California said that you could not put -- have sprayed products spray texture products that had more than half of one percent of asbestos in it
Q. Right A. In July of '76 that went to zero Q. And that was pursuant to --
A. Total
21
Q. Well we have got a copy of the statute
22 here but I don't think we need to reference it
1223
You had July of '75 when California passes its
1223 = law
25
A. Right

12345
Q. -- the amount of asbestos typically in
12345 your products at that time was still running about
12345
five or six percent was it not
12345
A. This is only addressing spray textures
5
Q. Right
61
A. You have to keep in mind that we had a
7 asbestos ceiling texture that was being sold in
8 California at the time very successfully
9
Q. Right
10
A. So
But 11
Q.
you also had the containing
12 product line that was still marketed as well
13
A. We had the wall texture product This
14 only addresses the textures
;
15
Q. Right And my understanding was though
16 is that you had two different product lines You had
17 an containing product and you had a
18 containing product that were used for
19
the same purpose as of 1975
20
MR HAZEN Objection form
21 A. Yeah That -- that could be yes because
22 ~the ceiling texture was non and asbestos containing
23
Q. By Mr. Coon Right So you now had two
24 product lines one that complied with the general
25 OSHA regulations -- actually both did in '75 The

containing and the containing
still met the OSHA limits on usage A. I'm getting a little confused because
OSHA addressed the workplace and the amount of fiber
that was basically released
Q. Okay ,
A. Okay Q. And you could make the product in compliance with OSHA --
A. That's correct
Q. -- with asbestos
A. Yes sir
Q. With the five or six percent with the
additional things you did rotating employees
putting in ventilators stuff like that you were
able to get the counts down to continue making the
products right MR HAZEN Objection form
A. I don't know if I can answer -- I don't know if I would put it in those words or not
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay Well we know that
in 1972 when Liberty Mutual came out and inspected the plants they said here is the problem And to address the problem we saw the memos where they
took certain steps to address that
Page 304 |k
:
1 A. Immediately ;
2
MR HAZEN Objection form
3
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay And after they
;
4 addressed those problems they were able to still
f
S make the product and stay within compliance of the
:
6 OSHA limits on exposure in the workplace
;
7 A. huh :
8 Q. Okay Correct E
9
A. huh
10 Q. And so that enabled them to continue to ::
11
make the product with asbestos in it for use in
12 whatever states they wanted to sell it in correct
4
13 except for California i2
14
A. Well in - California in '75 decided that
:
i 15 they were going to eliminate that in any spray
16 products to begin with --
H
d 17
Q. Right
18
A. --so -- but up until that point yes we
ff
19 complied in the way we made the product according to
q 20 the federal requirements
21
Q. Okay So after 1976 when California had a
:
22 complete ban on those products that contained
i
23
asbestos you were still able to manufacture it with
24
asbestos for sale in some states and have an
k
25 asbestos product for California as well as
:
4 Page 305 3
f
1 anybody else that wanted it
: 2
A. Yeah Well it's -- the interesting part
3 of that California law California addressed the ;
4 application of the product They said you could not
=f
5 apply a product in 1976 that contained any amount of
6
asbestos in the spray textures They did not say
it : 7 you could not manufacture it nor did they say you
8 could not sell it :
'
9
Q. Sure
10
A. The contractor could not apply it
11
Q. Right And you were still making this
12 product in California you just could not use in
13 California :
; 14
A. That is correct
15
Q. And you could sell it to other places I
i
16 guess you could still sell it in California you 4
17 just couldn't use it in California right
q
18
A. It could not be applied
19
Q. Yeah but you could sell it to somebody in
f
i 20 California --
i
21
A. Sure
22
Q. -- they just couldn't use it
23
A. theory you could have We didn't
4
22
Q. No good for them to buy it if they can't
i
i
25 use it right

A. There was a heavy demand by people for the
old product Q. Okay
A. But
Q. But --
A. The asbestos product the ceiling
product that we were -- had selling was very successful was well accepted in California so --
Q. just want to make sure we understand something though California was making -- your California facility was making the spray product with asbestos in it after California had a ban on using those same products in California
MR HAZEN Objection form A. I can't say that they actually did They could have but I don't know if in fact they did Q. By Mr. Coon Okay Which facility was making the spray product
A. Whatever -- well Hurst
Q. Okay A. Right here in Texas Q. We're talking -- wasn't one of the
California facilities still making it
A. '85
Q. No sir '76
I Different regions of the country preferred different 2 types of products We were in the effort of trying 3 to get all of those other products converted to meet 4 the requirements of those various contractors
5
So there was a difference in how the product
6 was used or accepted in different markets So to
7 keep in mind is however that formulas that were
8 developed in the California deal any material that 9 would have come out of that California facility
10 would have come out at less than half of one
11
percent at the most
12
Q. Okay Well the way I read this the
13 attached memo was that in the other markets like in
14 Tulsa people were trying to get the asbestos 15 ceiling texture and couldn't get it from you guys
16
A. No that's not true
17
Q. Here
18
MR HAZEN What document are you
19 referring to Mr. Giffins
20
THE WITNESS He's referring to KM BB
21
5328. This is dated November 12th 1975. And I --
22 the first paragraph states In June of this year 23 Bill Freeman Tulsa requested a asbestos 24 product to be available to him since he was losing 25 business on jobs that stated no asbestos In early
Page 307
123
A. mean Ontario closed down what
123 '77
123
4
5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14
Q. huh A. We have to go back and look at his record but I -he- -he- -he- they may have been -- they may have converted to -- to the asbestos product But it
would have been -- up until '76 San Carlos and Ontario could have made it But after '76 they
probably did not because there was the acceptance of the -- of the ceiling texture product was accepted well in the California markets
Q. Okay A. It was not accepted well in the other
markets
15
Q. They were able to go ahead and phase out
16 a_nd go into the transition of asbestos for
17 California
18
A. That's correct
19
Q. Why did Moore not go ahead and phase
20 out that same product with asbestosin it in all the
21 other states where the law had not precluded them ,
2323 ~~ from selling it yet
2323
A. Well as that indicates that particular
2323 letter to Bill Freeman that there were some samples
2323
being sent to him Now he was in Oklahoma
Page 309 fi
1 July 56 backs of asbestos ceiling texture were
2 sent to him for testing Upon his approval of this
3 material Wayne Harp madea batch at Hurst and sent
4 it to Tulsa It is not -- it is my understanding
5 nothing has been done beyond the testing of this
6 = product _-
7
The free products were sent to Tulsa for
8 _ his testing and acceptance by his customers So he
9 had asked for a asbestos product because of 10 specifications And was in the process of that -- I
11 interpret that as in the procesofs evaluating
12
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay Let's get to the
13
next one June '75 This one is KM 1235. This
14 appeared to be the airborne fiber counts at the Paco 15 facility at Los Gatos Where would that be
south 16
A. Los Gatos California It's a town
17 of San Carlos
18
Q. Okay I had not recalled us talking about
19 that as being one of the Paco manufacturing
20 facilities
21
A. It's not That was a test That was one
2222
of the tests that was -- it was done in 1975 for
2222
two reasons
24
Q. Okay But it said the test is at -- for
2222

A. Paco product at Los Gatosis a city town
2 and it was done on new construction new houses
3
Q. Okay So they went out to where one of
4 the Paco jobs was taking place
S
A. They went out to a job site where houses
products 6 were being built and used Paco
7
thatis correct

Q. Got it And then the -- the summary and
9 fiber count speaks for itself when you look at the
10
airborne fiber counts I guess at the third and
11 ~~ fourth pages in terms of -
12
A. May I look at it please
13
Q. Sure Do you know what the purpose of
14 going out to actually do a field study of the --
15
A. Sure do
16
Q. -- asbestos product release would have
17 been
18
A. Sure do
19
Q. What was that
20
A. First of all to further evaluate the
21 Union Carbide product that we talked about earlier
22 that was discussed in 1974. The fiber that had the
23 titanium glued to it
24
Q. Right
25
A. And also to evaluate the fiber -- level of

still come out from time to time to determine what the dust count levels were in the plants
A. On regular basis yes Q. Okay We also have an August 15 report
that may be part of that Is that part of that A. These are both the same letter
24
Q. Okay One copy somebody has written on
25 the other copy looks like it was the file copy
1
you know what that meant
2
A. Somebody's highlighted it
3
Q. Do they know whether or not at this time
4 that these things that were supposed to be taking S place werien fact occurring like making sure
6 operators wore respirators and things like that

8
A. If they read the letter December 10th
9
1975 Number 2 says -- well Number 1 says Present
10 local exhaust to be totally inadequate on one of the
11 baggers Okay So that was highlighted 12 Somebody highlighted that for some reason
13
Q. By Mr. Coon Right
14
A. Continue to provide the operator on the
15 dry texture bagger with coveralls This is required
16 to prevent the worker from bringing asbestos home on

Hl
18 repairs or for sheetrock tape and floating and
19 _ things like that could those be used for repairs as
20 ~~ well as for new construction
21
A. huh Sure could
22
Q. Do you know whether or not any testing was
23 done by Moore in houses or remodeling or
F
24 something that was taking place just to see as an
E 25 example what would happen if you were removing the
Page 319

Page 321
123 department was closed down all operations April
123 first of '76

Q. As for the Denver facility correct
4
A. That is correct

Q. But you have an attachment back here --
6
A. All right This is the -- this is the
7
findings the survey and --
8
Q. And the numbers we just discussed
9
.A Right
10
Q. And I had all this as one document but is
11 there a separate industrial hygiene study of the San
12 Carlos California facility
13
A. Well this says San Carlos I don't know
14 how that got to be on there
15
Q. I don't either but it appears there was a
16 separate study of the San Carlos facility same kind
17
of deal industrial --
18
A. Well would have because it was done on a
19 regular basis
20
Q. Okay
21
A. Yeah
22
Q. Okay So you had a number of these that
23 went on from the time OSHA was implemented in '72
24 ~~ for the duration of time they continued to make
25
asbestos products at the various Paco facilities
1
old sheetrock or the old tapes and floats
2
A. I don't think there was testing I really
3
don't recall I really don't I am very -- am
4
familiar with the Los Gatos test
S
Q. There was some with respect to new
i
6
construction
i
7
A. That is correct
5
8
Q. Okay
Ki
9
A. Now -- okay Fair enough
d
10
Q. Okay Next we had another memo here
E
11
This one is BB 5463. It's ours 1161. This was
i

dated October '76 again from Mr. Merrill And this
13
was to Frank Scaggs

in California Hawaii and Utah for the customers
23 there correct
24

1 ceiling texture products .
2
Q. Right Now we talked about California
3 Did Hawaii and Utah have the same type of ban as 4 California - :
5
A. No.
.
6
Q. Do you know why they had the Hawaii -- why
7 they --- why Moore had Hawaii and Utah on a
_ 8 asbestos ceiling texture along with California
9
A. Again it was -- would have been a
10 customer preference at the time
11
Q. Okay Just a matter of converting the
12
customers in those states to asbestos
13
A. . Have you ever dealt with a painting
14 contractor when you try to give them something new
15
It's not that easy
16
Q. Okay So the -- the Hawaii and Utah
17 customers were a little more pliable
18
A. Evidently Now the thing thatI think is
19 important about this letter is he's writing Frank
20 Scaggs in Seattle and telling him hey we have
21 these products available and even though state
22 agencies in the northwest have not taken a strong
222 stand on asbestos I am sure that day will come
222
So he's taken the initiative to let him know
'
25 that he better try to do something about getting

A. Consumer Products Safety Commission ban
12
That is correct
products and the Hurst plant has ceased the
production of containing products for Paco
with the exception of texture paints and ceiling
paint -- and ceiling texture
Q. By Mr. Coon Now was that in response
to the additional changes with OSHA regulating
further restrictions on the use of asbestos
products
13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
Q. Our plants manufacture only asbestos formulas now Right
A. On joint compounds
Q. Right Says We now have less than six months to dispose of containing joint compounds in stock at our stores
A. That is correct A recent inventory of
all stores showed current stock of
A. Well as you recall we decided in '77 not
to make - to get out of the asbestos business
Q. Right A. Texture paints were excluded from OSHA and EPA They were not part of that ban So we were
21 containing material to be 282,000 pounds of 22 Dry Powder and 7,580 containers of Ready We
23 _ plan to take another store inventory on 4-1-78 and
24 then make plans for disposing of any
25 containing material left in stock
Page 331
1 still able to make those products What he's saying 2 here that we are out of the production of
3 _ asbestos in the joint compounds but we're going to
4 -- with the exception of the texture paints and
5 ceiling texture which was excluded from either 6 OSHA or the Consumer Products Safety Commission 7 ban they were going to continue to make those
8 products
9
Q. Okay Now the Consumer Products Safety
10 ban took effect what was that January of '78
11
A. Yes No. July of --
12
Q. July of '77
13
A. I think it was July of '78 No June
14 They --- they put the ban out effective January the 15 12th I believe of '78 and said you could no
16 longer make it and distribute it But you had six 17 months from that point on to -- the stores had that
18 time to sell out their inventory which took you 19 through June or July of '78
20
Q. Okay And I don't have those particular
22222 consumer documents in front of me I don't believe
_ 22222 but I did want to make sure I understood something
22222
And that takes us to the next document This is
22222 1233. It's dated January 23 '78 another
22222
Moore memo This one is from -- can you tell

l 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23
The ban said -- so there was no hardship on manufacturers or the retailers the ban said you cannot make it after 12th of January but any that's
in the field any that's out in commerce can be
disposed of up through June of '78
Q. Okay A. June 16 I think of '78
MR HAZEN Brent at this time I think we have already exceeded the limit What I'd like you to do for me is let's take five minutes
break maybe look at your documents tell me how much longer you think you need
MR COON I need about an hour but _ I can wrap up in a couple minutes
MR HAZEN You want to take a

12
Q. By Mr. Coon Mr. Giffins we have
13 Document 1091. This is December 22 '77 a letter
14 from Mr. Myers as marketing manager to Doug 15 Merrill But it basically talks about the ban
16 taking place from the Consumer Safety folks I
17 believe
18
A. Yes
19
Q. Wasn't that from the Consumer Products
20 Safety Commission
21
A. No it was about that -- it's from
22 Mr. Myers marketing manager for Calidria Asbestos
23 which would have been Union Carbide
24
Q. Okay And it just kind of gets them up to
25 speed on the ban and the language contained in the
1 hearing procedure This involves the following 2 steps This was dated in May of 1977 which talked

16 go back through some of these other documents and
17
see a line of letters from Union Carbide to
18 Moore that was apprising them of the -- or
19 keeping them updated with respect to the proposals
20 with the ban
21
MR NANTZ Objection
22
MR HAZEN Objection form
23
A. That last letter had to do with the
24 proposal talking about the proposal And then the 25 following letter in December indicated that this is
Page 335
1 ban and how it would relate to some of the product
2 lines
3
A. He's saying because of the extensive
4 publicity and since we have attempted to keep many 5 of you directly informed okay we're going to give 6 you this information and it's -- and it talks about
7 the ban
8
Q. Okay And the ban had actually been
9 proposed for some period of time before it actually
10 took place right all through '76 '77
11
A. Yeah This is dated December 22nd and
12 the ban for manufacturing took place the following
13
took about two weeks later 15 20 days was to
14 go in effect after that
15
Q. Right But --
16
A. We already were well aware
17
Q. Yeah they were well aware In fact I
18 had other documents I haven't gone back to with you
19 but there was correspondence back in May of '77 20 discussing same issues in this document I 21 think 1093. Again same type of information isn't 22 it just keeping everyone abreast of what had and
23 _ had not been banned and what the Consumer Product
24 Safety Commission was working on
25
A. This is talking about the proposal and
Page 337
12
what the proposal was -- how it was finalized
12 That's how Iinterpret those letters
3
Q. By Mr. Coon Sure May says --
4
MR NANTZ Objection
5 nonresponsive
6
Q. By Mr. Coon -- here is what they're
7 proposing December letter says here is what the ban
8 actually is now that the statute is done complete
9 We know what we're dealing with
10
MR NANTZ Objection form
f
11
A. That's how I interpret it yes
H
12
Q. By Mr. Coon And it advised that there
13 was going to be a ban on shipping certain products
14 manufactured after January '78 and then you 15 couldn't sell them after June '78 I think is what
16 you testified to the earlier
17
A. That's what I indicated earlier yes
18
MR NANTZ Objection form
19
Q. By Mr. Coon Okay So that's
20 consistent with the language of the ban
21
MR NANTZ Objection form
i
22
A. Indicating
23
Q. By Mr. Coon Now we were talking about
24
after the ban took place which is after the statute
25 _ is passed the memos of Moore in the following
NELL MCCALLUM & ASSOCIATES INC 713 861-0203
85 Pages 334 to 337
Page 338
123 spring and summer which is how did they deal with
123 the products that were now subject to the ban
3
And so that I'll understand when the Consumer
4 Products Safety Commission came out with the ban on
5 some product lines it impacted Moore with
6 _ respect to some Paco product lines
7
A. The joint compounds
8
Q. The joint compounds
9
A. That's what they addressed only was the
10 joint compounds
11
Q. And it was Moore's understanding
12
that as a result of this new statute that there
13 would be an inability for them to continue to sell
14 -- to manufacture or sell that product after a
15 certain time in 1978
16
MR HAZEN Objection form
17
A. The ban was very explicit You could not
18 manufacture input into commerce anything after I 19 believe 12th of January and that you had then
20 -- had until June 16th of '78 to sell out the
21
inventory that was in the field
22 | Q. Coon Okay Well let's talk
23 about those two dates With respect to January of
24 '78 this is the time when you cannot ship anymore
25 back out from the manufacturer
Page 340 ff
1 purpose of the ban was it not
2
A. There was a concern about that product
3 and the effect when sanding it yes
4
Q. Okay And nonetheless as I understand
5 even though these findings were made and the ban
6 was put into place Moore did abide by that
7 law by discontinuing the manufacture of an
8 containing joint compound correct
9
A. Correct
10
Q. But they also did continue to sell that
11 product at their local stores for the duration of
12 the time that the statute allowed them to which was
13 June 12 1978
14
15 16 17
A. That is correct
Q. And do you have any idea how much product Moore sold of those joint compounds from the January 16 manufacturing off date to the June
-
18 19
12 '78 no -A. Before I answer that can I --
20
Q. Yes sir
21
A. I'd like to make a point If you read the
22 Consumer Products Safety Commission ban they're
23 very emphatic about stating that they understood the
24 impact on businesses by prohibiting the sale or 25 cleaning out of the inventory and it did not want
Page 339
1
A. Ship it out from the manufacturer
2
Q. From the manufacturer That's the
3 dead date for getting it out of the
4 manufacturer's facility
5
A. Whatever that date is the 12th or 16th
6
That was the --
7
Q. January 16th
8
. A. Right
9
Q. Okay But for stock that had already been
10 sent to Moore's shelves these same joint
11 compounds that were now banned Moore could
legally still sell them up through June 12 of 1978
13 A. That is correct Q. Couldn't get anymore shipped to you from any of the Paco facilities after January 16th but you could still sell what you had on your shelves
16 A. Correct Q. Or your inventory you know behind the
18 counter or whatever right
18 A. What was already in the pipeline in
20 theory yes you could
Q. Okay Now Moore did understand that the Consumer Products Safety Commission had
banned these products as a potential health hazard
1212 to those people that were using it That was the
Page 341 &
.
1
13
15
2017
19 20
222
24 25 25
to do anything -- it wasn't just Moore it was
the whole industry -- to destroy the economic
situation So they were very emphatic that they
give -
they
were
going to
give everybody time to ,
sell it out
. They also said however thaitf they had felt
at any point from JanuaryJanuary through June that there
was an issue that warranted immediate discontinuance
and suspension of the sale of the product they were
ability in the
to control that and they -- they did
not -- they had that ability to stop it right then
but they said in all fairness we're going to give
you the six months to clear it out
Q. And you believe that Moore would have suffered a serious economic hardship by not
being able to sell or deplete the remaining stock on
their shelves
A. don't know I mean there would have
been economic hardship on how to dispose of the
product if you had no source to get rid of it
Serious I don't know if I'd use that terminology
but we were -- we and everybody else in the
industry functioned exactly -- I know we did
Okay We did everything we were supposed to do
based on the guidelines that were established

24 that this was a product that had now been banned for
25
use
1
Q. To your knowledge -- to your knowledge

not

Q. I'd asked you a question on this and this
19 may answer it This is 1233 dated January '78 The
