Mr. Michael J. Brickman Richardson, Patrick, Westbrook & Brickman, LLC 174 East Bay Street Charleston, SC 29401
Re: Rose Marie Taylor Expert Report
Dear Mr. Brickman:
The following is an expert report containing opinions regarding the asbestos exposure history of Rose Taylor as outlined from the testimony from the videotaped depositions of Mrs. Taylor and her husband Robert Taylor. This report is based on the information that was sent from your office, my educational background and training, research into asbestos exposure issues as well as both the published and unpublished literature.
The information that you provided and that we have reviewed for this report is as follows:
1. Video Deposition of Rose M. Taylor dated March 8, 2006.
2. Video Deposition of Robert M. Taylor dated May 4, 2006.
3. Video Deposition of Robert M. Taylor dated March 27, 2009.
4. Rose Taylor's Exposure Summary
Rose Marie Taylor testified that she believes her mesothelioma cancer was due to the secondary exposure she received from her direct proximity to the clothing that her husband Robert wore during his 45 year work history with Southwestern Bell Telephone. Mrs. Taylor was 82 at the time of her deposition in 2006.
The Law Offices of Richardson, Patrick, Westbrook & Brickman requested that 1 review the depositions of Rose and Robert Taylor to determine if there was airborne asbestos exposure to Rose Taylor from the potential secondary asbestos exposure to Robert Taylor's work clothes during his employment at Southwestern Bell Telephone.
ROBERT TAYLOR OCCUPATIONAL WORK HISTORY
Prior to the breakup of AT&T in the early 1980s, AT&T owned the operating subsidiaries across the United States including Southwestern Bell Telephone where Robert Taylor worked. To ensure uniform systems across this network of phone companies, AT&T also owned Western Electric which was the sole supplier, and when necessary the manufacturer, of products used by its subsidiaries.
Robert Taylor testified that Western Electric materials were used in Central Switching Offices (also known as Central Offices) across the United States.
Cable Holes and Cable Hole Covers
Mr. Taylor stated that the Central Office was based on a uniform design template throughout the United States. The various Central Switching Offices where Robert Taylor worked were either square or rectangular buildings of multiple floors. In Abilene, Amarillo, Dallas and other cities in north Texas these buildings were usually approximately six to ten floors. Each floor was made from two feet thick concrete and at predetermined spots along the floor in rows were 2Vi feet by 2/2 feet square holes in the floor.
Every several feet there was another hole and there was row after row on each floor and the holes on each floor aligned directly with the holes in the floor below and the holes in the floor above. The purpose of these holes was to accommodate cables that were run in from the outside through the ground floor or basement and then up into the building. Each floor contained frames. These frames held the switching equipment and as phone service expanded lines were pulled in through the underground below the building and then run up into each successive floor as phone capacity expanded in the community.
These holes, known as cable holes because the cables ran through them, were covered until they were needed. Each cable hole had a panel at the bottom and the top made out of transite board that covered the hole. If you were on a floor looking up through a hole in the floor above there was a panel of transite board flush with the ceiling above you and there was a transite board that covered the floor the hole was in to prevent anyone from stepping into the hole. The inside wall of the hole had a metal panel on it against which cables were attached as they were pulled through.
Asbestos Pillows
Robert Taylor testified that when the holes were not in use and the transite panels were in place the holes were filled with small asbestos filled pillows approximately nine inches square. Mr. Taylor stated that it required approximately 100 such pillows to fill the hole. The purpose of the pillows was to prevent air and/or fire from using the holes as conduits to go from floor to floor in the event of fire.
Each time new lines were pulled through a hole the process first required removing the transite board panels in the floor and emptying the hole of the asbestos pillows. The pillows were piled up alongside the hole. Mr. Taylor testified that any time the asbestos pillows were handled they released noticeable dust. Next, the workers opened the panel at the bottom of the hole in the ceiling below to run the cables through. The cables were attached to the metal panel on the side of the hole and then the transite board panels were replaced.
According to the testimony of Mr. Taylor, the "pillows" that were used to seal the pathways of the telephone cable runs contained asbestos. Robert Taylor also stated that when he handled these asbestos pillows during work activities they would produce visible dust. Based on Mr. Taylor's testimony it would be my opinion that the handling of these asbestos pillows would have exposed Mr. Taylor to significant amounts of asbestos fibers and contaminated his work clothes.
Cutting and Drilling Asbestos Boards
Transite Panels
Robert Taylor testified that in order for the transite panels to fit flush they had to be cut to adjust the size to accommodate the cables now running through the hole that were not there before. The transite boards were cut with a small electric "band saw". According to Mr. Taylor this process generated substantial dust.
Robert Taylor testified that he performed this work approximately one day a week during which time he could have worked on one hole or multiple holes running cable. However, he testified that Western Electric workers did the majority of this work in the same work spaces where he worked as first a frame man, installing the frames that held the switching equipment, and later as a switchman which involved much of the same work as a frame man with added responsibilities of maintaining the switching equipment inside the frames. This activity was regular routine activity that occurred multiple times each week because it was the principle activity associated with adding new telephone lines. Multiple individuals performed it throughout the week.
When one central office was at capacity they built additional central offices. As the cable holes accommodated more cables the transite board covers had to be cut and re-cut to make room for the additional cables.
Work at MAS has shown that the asbestos-containing Transite boards used for this purpose were found to contain 15 % chrysotile asbestos. It would be my opinion that when Mr. Taylor cut these boards with an electric saw he would have been exposed to substantial amounts of airborne chrysotile asbestos. His asbestos exposure levels could have exceeded the 1972 OSHA Excursion limit of 10 fibers/cc and his work cloths would have become severally contaminated with asbestos-containing dust. Additionally, it is my opinion that when he was around other workers cutting this transite board he would have had significant exposure to airborne asbestos fibers as a bystander and this exposure would have contaminated his work clothes.
Ebony Board
Asbestos boards were also used in the frames to hold the equipment that was added in a vertical posture. These boards were called asbestos mill boards or were sometimes referred to as Ebony board. These boards were regularly drilled to attach equipment to the boards that were housed inside the frames.
Asbestos Ebony sheets and panels were manufactured by Johns-Manville and they stated that this product contain between 38 to 45 % amosite, 48 to 52 % cement and 8 % asphaltic binder.1'2 As just discussed, Mr. Taylor would routinely work with Ebony board where he would drill the material to attach equipment. Based on the composition of JM Ebony board, and the work practices described by Mr. Taylor, it is my opinion that when Mr. Taylor worked with this product he would have been exposed to significant amounts of airborne amosite fibers. It is also my opinion that when Mr. Taylor worked with Ebony panels his work clothes would have become contaminated with amosite fibers.
Cutting of Cement Conduit
Robert Taylor stated that another product that he worked with that created dust was cement conduit. Mr. Taylor testified that cement conduit was used at the central offices to protect cables and wires from hazards. The cement conduit would have to be cut from time to time. A cutter was used that would be affixed to the pipe and then score the pipe until it broke. Mr. Taylor stated the cutting process created dust that got on his person and his clothes and generated particles that fell on the floor.
Asbestos-containing cement pipe of this nature typically contains both chrysotile and crocidolite asbestos fibers. Manufacturing Specifications for Johns-Manville's pressure and non-pressure cement pipe showed that these types of pipes contained approximately 3% crocidolite and between 15 to 20% chrysotile.2'3
Studies at MAS have shown that when asbestos-containing cement pipe (AGP) is handled and cut it can release significant amounts of both crocidolite and chrysotile fibers.4 Just as important in these same studies we have shown that ACP surfaces can have a significant amount of loose asbestos fibers that are easily re-entrained when the ACP surface is touched. When Mr. Taylor handled and cut asbestos-containing conduit it is my opinion that his work clothes would have become severely contaminated with both chrysotile and crocidolite fibers.

Asbestos Cloth Soldering Pads and Bags
Mr. Taylor testified that another asbestos-containing product used on a daily basis by him was used in connection with the soldering process. Any time a wire had to be attached to the switching equipment it was soldered in place. To prevent the solder from dripping down to the switching equipment below where the wire was being attached a soldering pad was placed below the area where Mr. Taylor was working. This soldering pad was raw asbestos cloth. Mr. Taylor also carried a small soldering bag on his hip made of asbestos cloth in which to put additional remnants of soldering and other debris. The soldering pad and bags were made out of asbestos cloth because of the high temperature of the soldering materials. Mr. Taylor handled these items on a daily basis for 25 years between 1946 and 1971.
The daily placement of an asbestos bag on Mr. Taylor's hip to hold his soldering tools would cause the bag to be in constant contact with Mr. Taylor's work clothes. The asbestos bag was described as a cloth material and our work at MAS has shown that asbestos cloth usually contains between 50% to 85% chrysotile. It is my opinion that fabric or cloth that contains between 50% to 85% chrysotile being in constant contact with Mr. Taylor's work clothes during his work activities, would have transferred significant amounts of chrysotile fibers to his work clothes causing contamination.
Asbestos Insulated Wire and Cable
Robert Taylor testified that much of the wire and cable used in the central offices was insulated with asbestos insulation. This is significant because one of Mr. Taylor's primary responsibilities in attaching those cables and wires involved stripping the wire and cable of the asbestoscontaining insulation. This was an activity that he did repeatedly most days that he was working in the Central Office. In addition there were other workers in the same position as Mr. Taylor doing the same kind of work stripping these asbestos insulated wires and cables to attach to the switching equipment.
Mr. Taylor also testified to using hard plastic spacers which Western Electric confirms contained asbestos-containing phenolic molding compounds.
Dust Generation and Control in the Central Office Environment
Mr. Taylor testified that dust was a significant problem in a Central Office environment and the principle cause of faulty telephone service and static on the lines. Dust accumulated from the use of these various asbestos-containing materials that was discussed above. To reduce the dust heavy curtains were used around each set of switching equipment and exhaust fans or vacuums were often inserted underneath the curtains to collect the dust. Mr. Taylor testified that there was compressed air on each floor that was used to blow off the switching equipment in order to disturb the dust that had accumulated on it into the environment where it could eventually be suctioned or vacuumed.
It is my opinion that the asbestos dust that was generated during the cutting of the transite boards and the use of asbestos pillows would have settled onto the door area, switching equipment, and other surfaces inside these work areas.
Further, it is my opinion that when Mr. Taylor was in these areas when compressed air was used to blow off the switching equipment, this asbestos-containing dust would have been re-entrained into the environmental space causing Mr. Taylor to be re-exposed to significant amounts of airborne asbestos fibers. Mr. Taylor's asbestos exposure from re-entrainment would have further contaminated his work clothes with asbestos dust.
ROSE TAYLOR'S SECONDARY EXPOSURE TO HER HUSBAND'S WORK CLOTHES
Robert Taylor testified that he and his_wife carpooled to work each morning. He wore the same work clothes he wore in the Central Switch Office home and he and his wife Rose rode in the same family car home from work each afternoon.
Each evening when Robert Taylor arrived home he testified that the first thing he did was take off his work clothes and give them to'his wife Rose to launder. She corroborated this testimony in her deposition that she laundered his work clothes each evening after they returned home from work. Rose Taylor also testified that she followed a set routine in preparing to launder Robert's clothes. She first brushed them down with a hand brush to remove what was noticeable dust on the clothes either outside or in the laundry room which was usually adjacent to the kitchen. After brushing the clothes she would then launder them that evening.
Mrs. Taylor performed that task five days a week. This occurred every day of every week that Robert Taylor worked between 1946 and 1971, a period of 25 years from the time they began living together until Mr. Taylor changed work environments to work in an area where there is presently no known asbestos exposure. Fifty work weeks a year multiplied by five work days a week over 25 years, even if miscellaneous days off are accounted, adds up to 5000 work days over a 25 year period that Rose Taylor methodically laundered her husband's work clothes that he wore in an enclosed environment containing multiple asbestos-containing materials that generated dust which accumulated on his work clothes.
In addition to this regular and consistent exposure on a daily basis during a 25 year period to dust generated from asbestos-containing materials used in the central office environment, Mrs. Taylor testified that she assisted her husband on a few occasions during home remodels where he used joint compounds. Mr. Taylor testified he purchased these joint compounds from the Sherwin Williams paint stores. Rose Taylor stated in some detail that she assisted her husband in the mixing process of the joint compounds and was present when the joints were sanded where he had taped and floated the joint compound. However, there is no evidence of the specific brand of joint compound used or whether those joint compounds actually contained asbestos. Mrs. Taylor also testified that she worked as a secretary at a plumbing supply warehouse and at an oil drilling supply company but there is no evidence that she had any exposure to asbestos-
containing dusts because there is limited evidence that asbestos materials were present. And those materials that may have been present were not manipulated, fabricated or disturbed to release asbestos fibers.
Secondary Exposure
It has been well published in the peer-reviewed literature of the significant problems of household exposure to asbestos from contaminated work clothes brought home by a family member from a work site."'36'*7"*8 A review article of this problem by NIOSH provides many examples of asbestos exposure problems to children and spouses from a family member's work clothes.9 It is my opinion that the primary mechanism of asbestos exposure to household occupants from asbestos contaminated work clothing is by the washing of the work clothes in the household.
The basis of this opinion is that the above referenced studies all conclude that the route of secondary exposure to family members was from the asbestos contaminated work clothes from individuals who either worked directly with asbestos products or were bystanders around others who worked with these products. Asbestos fibers have a natural tendency to adhere to work clothes where they are then transported home to the household. Typically, during laundry activities the clothes are briefly shaken releasing some of the asbestos contamination before being put into the washing machine. If this laundry procedure is carried out in the house the environment inside the house will be contaminated over time. The Taylor's testified that the clothes washing area inside their home was next to the kitchen.
Since Robert Taylor always wore his work clothes and they were washed at his house some of the asbestos on his work clothes would therefore be consistently released into his house. Over time this asbestos contamination would build up causing a continuous exposure to the occupants of that home. This would include Rose Taylor from the 1946 to 1971 time period.
As discussed above it is my opinion that when Robert Taylor went to the Central Switch Office his work clothes would have been contaminated with chrysotile asbestos. It is further my opinion that this facility was most likely the primary source of the asbestos that contaminated the Taylor household.
3 Epler, G.R., Fitz Gerald, M.X., Gaensler, E.A. and Carrington, C.B.: "Asbestos-Related Disease from Household Exposure", Respiration 39:229-240 (1980). 6 Comments of Johns-Manville Corporation with respect to Notice of Proposed Rulemaking Occupational Exposure to Asbestos (Federal Register, October 9, 1975) to: OSHA, April 1976. 7 Huncharek, M., Capotoito, J.V. and Muscat, J.: "Domestic Asbestos Exposure, Lung Fiber Burden, and Pleural Mesothelioma in a Housewife", British Journal of Industrial Medicine, 1989:46, 345-355. s Miltonic, C., Pinto, C. and Mobiglia, A.: "Mesotheliomas Following Exposure to Asbestos Used in Railroads: The Italian Cases", Toxicology and Industrial Health, Vol. 7, No. 112, 1191. 9 NIOSH, Publication No. 95-123, Report to Congress on Workers' Home Contamination Study Conducted Under the Workers Family Protection Act". September 1995.
Ironically, asbestos product manufacturer Johns-Manville verifies this position because they had a very good understanding of the problem with take home or secondary asbestos exposure issues in the household.
In published comments to the Federal Register in 1976, Johns-Manville stated the following:
"As recognized by Selikqffcmd others, the impregnation ofdrapes, rugs, furniture, etc. with asbestos fibers and the constant Resuspension offibers in the respirable range creates an exaggerated hazard. Once asbestos is carried home by the workmen, it's presence in the home is likely to be permanent. Once it gets into the rugs, for example, it becomes resuspended by movement such as brushing and walking and therefore, family members are getting 24 hour a day, 7-day a week exposures. "
Johns-Manville went on to say that: ,
"These household exposures also provide an opportunityfor repetitive high, short peak exposures due to the shaking out ofwork clothes. ""
In my opinion, it is just this type of household asbestos exposure environment that Rose Taylor would have been subjected to when she lived with her family during and after the time her husband worked for Southwestern Bell Telephone.
The propensity of asbestos fibers to be released from typical work clothes has been studied extensively at MAS. Our in-house work practice studies have measured the amount of asbestos dust that can be released from work clothes that were contaminated during the routine use of asbestos-containing products. An example of two of these secondary exposure studies measured the amount of asbestos release from work clothes that were contaminated with AC pipe dust and thermal insulation.10' 11
In these studies the contaminated work clothes were brought into our testing facility in a laundry basket and then shaken out to simulate a typical washing procedure. For the AC pipe dust study we measured exposure levels of between 1.8 to 2.1 fibers/cc. Significant amounts of asbestos were released from the contaminated clothing. For the MAS thermal insulation work practice study we found secondary asbestos exposure levels between 7.1 to 9.9 fibers/cc.
The use of these two MAS secondary exposure work practice studies are not intended to replicate the types of work practices that Mr. Taylor used while working for AT&T. These two secondary exposure studies are provided only as demonstrative examples on how asbestos-contaminated work clothes can easily release loosely adhered asbestos dust in the breathing zone of a person who is laundering contaminated work clothes.
10 MAS Work Practice Study, "Secondary Exposure from Work Clothes with Asbestos Cement Pipe Dust", November 2006 study and video tape. 11 MAS Work Practice Study, "Secondary Exposure from Work Clothing II", April 1999 study and video tape.
Based on these results it is my opinion that when Rose Taylor washed her husband's asbestoscontaminated clothing at their house she would release significant amounts of airborne asbestos fibers into the home environment causingher to be exposed to elevated levels of airborne asbestos.
ASBESTOS CONCENTRATIONS IN AMBIENT AIR
It is my opinion that ambient air does not contain any appreciable amounts of airborne asbestos fibers unless there is a source for those fibers. A study by the EPA showed that the average concentration of asbestos in ambient air is approximately 0.0005 fibers/cc. Mrs. Taylor's secondary asbestos exposure would have exposed her to many times above this leveland in some cases hundreds to thousands of times above this level.
All the opinions expressed in this report are held withina reasonable degree of scientific certainty and I reserve the right to modify this expert report if additional information becomes available.

Re: Dorman vs Advance Auto parts INC., et al LEE Project #D82009
Dear Mr. Hartley:
You have asked me to review the above referenced case and provide opinions about industrial hygiene considerations. The following is my report.
I am a Certified Industrial Hygienist. Industrial hygiene is the science of identifying and preventing workplace hazards. I am now in a private consulting practice. For many previous years, I worked as an industrial hygienist for Texas State Department of Health, Occupational Health Division. In my work for the state of Texas I inspected facilities where asbestos products were manufactured and facilities where asbestos products were used. In this service I developed expertise in various areas of occupational health related to asbestos disease including, but not limited to occupational health, epidemiology, historical aspects of the development of asbestos-related disease and industrial hygiene. A true and correct copy of curriculum vitae is attached as Exhibit A. My billing rate for this project is $525.00 per hour.
SCOPE OF REPORT
I have been asked to review case specific information that is provided to me for the above referenced matter, and to provide a report covering my opinions covering industrial hygiene considerations relating to asbestos exposures of Mrs. Dorman. At this time, I have reviewed the following documents that were provided by The Hartley Lawfirm, LLP:
Mallory Dorman Depositions, July 26,2009 and August, 2009 Western Electric transite use for closing cable holes and slots Bell Laboratories memorandum of record of potential asbestos exposure in
Western electric Hartley letter to Jerry Lauderdale Lucent interrogatories
1 of 8
The information that I have reviewed is sufficient to form a reliable basis for my opinions within reasonable scientific probability. The opinions that I express in this affidavit are expressed only if I hold them to be within reasonable scientific probability. I have reviewed the above-referenced materials in order to formulate my opinions in this case. Also, I am relying on my personal knowledge about development of mesothelioma resulting from occupational and environmental exposures, as well as my educational background and professional training and experience. All of which are the types of materials that I and other occupational health experts normally rely upon to formulate our opinions. I reserve the right to amend this report if additional information becomes available to me.
OCCUPATIONAL ASBESTOS EXPOSURE
Asbestos has been used in industrial settings increasingly since the early 1900's. By 1930 asbestos containing dust had been well documented and established as an industrial hazard that caused a debilitating and fatal lung scarring disease, asbestosis.1 By 1939 a proposed occupational exposure limit was recommended to control asbestosis. Since this date, this standard has been reduced on numerous occasions due to increasing information about asbestos related diseases. By the late 1940's very high rates of lung cancer were associated with occupational asbestos exposures that were previously thought to be reasonably safe. Then in the early 1960's asbestos exposures were shown to produce asbestosis, lung cancer, and a very rare cancer known as mesothelioma (See Selikoff et al.2
As more information became available, increasing evidence pointed to increased incidence of lung cancer and mesothelioma in groups exposed at lower levels to asbestos in industry. The United States Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) became responsible for occupational safety and health in 1970. In light of rapidly developing new information, the occupational exposure limits for asbestos were reduced by OSHA on 5 occasions between 1970 and 1995.
WORKPLACE REGULATION
A federal standard for asbestos exposure was adopted for companies providing services to the United States government in 1952 under the Walsh Healy Public Contracts Act, which established a limit of 5 million particles of asbestos containing dust per cubic foot of air.3 The standard also adopted requirements for exposure control through substitution of less toxic materials, ventilation, isolation of operations, and other engineering controls and protective equipment. It also required separation of street clothing from work clothes to ensure there was no contamination taken out of the workplace.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) also recognized the potential hazard of contaminated clothing. In 1972 OSHA required that where high asbestos exposures were present, the employer must provide full body work clothing that would not leave the workplace. These clothing were required to be handled and laundered using special precautions to prevent release of asbestos fibers. These measures were intended to prevent asbestos diseases resulting from household exposures to asbestos fibers. When this standard was revised in 1986, these provisions were strengthened. OSHA indicated in their preamble that "Evidence has shown that family members of asbestos workers face a substantially increased risk of cancer and other asbestos related diseases from exposure to asbestos carried home on work clothing." The standard adopted included specific provisions to ensure that contaminated work clothing does not leave the workplace, and that contaminated clothing be handled and laundered using appropriate precautions (see 29 Code of Federal Regulations, 1910.93a (d) (3 and 4), OSHA),4 5A6lso, employers were required to provide shower and change facilities in some instances so that workers would not leave the facility with asbestos fibers on their clothing or bodies. These provisions were not contested in the hearing process. OSHA states in the rule preamble that "Few, if any, participants in the rulemaking denied the benefits afforded by these provisions."
The development of specific workplace regulations by OSHA is further evidence that such relationship has been documented and is accepted as a basis for governmental rulemaking. Further, such rulemaking was subjected to extensive public review, and was found to be a sound basis for regulation.
HOUSEHOLD ASBESTOS EXPOSURE
When asbestos diseases were first identified, some believed that constant, or frequently repeated, intense exposures were necessary to cause asbestosis. Epidemiologic studies that were undertaken, however, soon demonstrated that this was not the case. Increasingly, asbestos related diseases were seen in persons who had intermittent occupational exposures, and also in those with no known asbestos exposures other than living in a home with an asbestos worker. Investigations of these workers showed that due to poor conditions in many workplaces, workers' clothing was frequently heavily contaminated with asbestos fibers. When the workers returned home they carried these fibers into their residences, where fibers were dislodged and became airborne. The workers' wives and children were then indirectly exposed to these asbestos fibers. Studies have shown increased incidences of mesothelioma and asbestosis among these persons having household asbestos exposures.56 The authors concluded:
"There seems little doubt that the risk of mesothelioma may arise from both occupational and domestic exposures to asbestos. "

British Journal of Industrial Medicine 22:261-269 (1965)

This determination that asbestos fibers can be taken home on clothing was not a new concept when the above investigations were done in the mid 1960's. In fact, there were concerns about contamination on workers clothing as early as 1899, when the British factory inspectors required that workers remove contaminated work clothes before leaving the workplace to return home.7 8This has been a basic principle used by public health and sanitation professionals, and especially by industrial hygienists at least since this time.
In 1952, the United States Department of Labor issued safety and health standards concerning worker safety for all contractors performing contract work under the WalshHealy Act. Among the health requirements was the provision that:
"Workers who handle or are exposed to harmful materials in such a manner that contact ofwork clothes with street clothes will communicate to the latter the harmful substances accumulated during working hours should be provided with facilities which will prevent this contact and also permit thefree ventilation or drying ofthe work clothes while they are not in use. In any plant where it is necessaryfor both male andfemale employees to change clothes, separate dressing rooms should be provided. "s
Industry studies indicate that household exposures can approach those found in industry. In fact, an internal report of AMOCO from 1973 indicates that such household exposures would be in excess of mandatory occupational exposure limits that were in place at that time:
"We have experimentally determined that the OSHA ceiling limit may be approached and/or exceeded during subsequent wearer movement in contaminated clothing or subsequent handling ofcontaminated clothing before laundering. " 9
Due to the serious concern about household exposures, the United States Congress required the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) to conduct study of the concern. In 1995 NIOSH published its extensive report on the issue.10 The report compiled and reviewed the extensive literature on asbestos household exposure, and concluded:
"Based on the studies reviewed in this section, families ofasbestos-exposed workers have been at increased risk ofpleural, pericardial, orperitoneal mesothelioma, lung cancer, cancer ofthe gastrointestinal tract, and non-malignant pleural andparenchymal abnormalities as well as asbestosis. "
The NIOSH study concluded that health effects and deaths were occurring, and that they "are preventable using known effective measures, however educational measures are needed to promote their use".

Thus, there is a clear historic link between the workplace and diseases occurring in household contacts of workers who bring contaminants home on their clothing. The link has been known for over 100 years. Similarly, the methods of preventing these diseases have also been known for over 100 years.
MESOTHELIOMA
Studies have demonstrated that high incidences of mesothelioma are found not only in asbestos workers but also in the wives of these workers, who had only household exposure to asbestos that was brought home on their husband's clothing.
Due to its rarity and its well documented relationship with asbestos exposure, mesothelioma became known as an almost certain indication that the patient had had historic exposures to asbestos either in an occupational setting or resulting from household or environmental exposures. There have been numerous studies showing mesothelioma in household contacts. In 1965, Mesothelioma was seen in 20 persons in the London area who had only household or environmental asbestos exposures.11 The authors concluded that "There seems little doubt that the risk of mesothelioma may arise from both occupational and domestic exposures to asbestos."
In 2000 a summary review of mesothelioma from environmental exposures was published. It showed that the overall summary risk estimate for mesothelioma for persons with household exposures was 8.1 times higher than for unexposed persons,12
In my opinion, these and other studies are scientifically valid evaluations, and their findings demonstrate development of mesothelioma in persons having only household exposures to asbestos.
DORMAN'S HOUSEHOLD ASBESTOS EXPOSURE
Doris Dorman worked in a primarily in a Christian book store once or twice a week as a clerk. Early in their marriage, she also worked as a clerk, typist and did general office work according to her husband's testimony. There were no known asbestos exposures in these occupational settings. She also did all of the laundry for her husband and children. Her husband's job involved cutting and handling asbestos containing products, which resulted in deposition of asbestos fibers on his work clothing. Since his employer did not provide laundering for his work clothing, he brought it home to be laundered by his wife. Thus, this clothing was the source for Mrs. Dorman's exposure to asbestos dust.
Mrs. Dorman's husband, Mallory Dorman, worked primarily for Western Electric. During his employment there, he was exposed to asbestos transite board, which he had to

cut on many occasions using power tools, including drills and reciprocating saws. A similar transite product was made by Johns Manville between 1907 and 1985, and contained chrysotile and/or amosite asbestos at a very high concentration - from 22 to 69% by weight.13 1H4e15us1u6ally worked in enclosed rooms associated with telephone equipment, and there was usually only limited general ventilation available.
Cutting, and drilling, the transite board created dust, which got on his clothes which were subsequently brought home for his wife to launder. He also frequently used vacuums to collect the dust from drilling holes in the concrete floor in the central office, but he did not ever use a vacuum for cutting of the transite boards to make cable hole covers. He described seeing dust during this operation. Other asbestos products that Mr. Dorman was exposed to in his work included; soldering wiping pads, Bakelite fuse panels, asbestos cable hole covers, and cable hole fire stop pillows. Each of these products would contribute to asbestos fiber deposition on Mr. Dorman's clothes.
Studies show that cutting these types of asbestos containing materials without using dust suppression techniques can result in deposition of millions of asbestos fibers on the workers' clothes. One study in particular reported finding up to 3.5 million asbestos fibers per cm2 on the clothing worn by workers cutting asbestos cement boards similar to jobs that Mr. Dorman did^ In this study, the authors conclude that "Also, the clothing worn by the worker in this study was found to be highly contaminated with chrysotile asbestos. This contamination is yet another potential source of exposure through re entrainment of the asbestos dust from such activities as the brushing of the clothing or laundry activities." Similar studies on other asbestos cement products also reported fiber concentrations on clothing of up to 6.68 and 2.96 million fibers per square centimeter.1516 The asbestos dust transferred from these products to Mr. Dorman's clothing would have been brought home for Mrs. Dorman to launder.
Mrs. Dorman was exposed to brake dust while helping and watching her husband do brake jobs on their cars. Mrs. Dorman was also exposed to asbestos from laundering her husband's clothing, which would have had brake dust on it at times.

OPINIONS
1. Mrs. Dorman did not have any identifiable occupational asbestos exposure. 2. It is my opinion that Mrs. Dorman's husband was exposed to asbestos in his job,
and unintentionally brought asbestos fibers on his clothing home with him. 3. Mrs. Dorman laundered these clothes, and received exposure to asbestos fibers
that were released into their home during laundering. 4. Mrs. Dorman received exposure to brake dust from being around her husband
while doing automotive brake work, and from laundering her husband's clothing. 5. The exposures that Mrs. Dorman received in her home were significant, and
contributed to her risk for developing asbestos related diseases, including
