Re: Colby v. Union Carbide Corporation
Dear Mr. Winfree:
This will provide you with a brief update on the status of discovery in the above capt4oned matter.
The deposition of plaintiff 's^safety endjLr.eering expert, Dr. Burton Z. Davidson, was conducted by Bob HbTiingfihead on August 23, 1993 and he will be providing you with a sjummary of Dr.
Davidson's testimony within the next few days. Bo will also be conducting the deposition of plaintiff's medical cai^sation expert, Dr. Rowland D. Goodman on September 8, 1993. I wil be conducting the depositions of Dr. Dennis Fitzgerald (decednt's treating oncologist) and Dr. Vito Gulli (the physician who conducted the post-mortem examination of the decedent) on Septemt er 13, 1993.
On August 18, 1993, I deposed Dr. Brian Boj le (decedent's
treating physician) at his office in Red Bank, New Jersey. A brief summary of the pertinent parts of the deposition, based upon my notes and recollection, is set forth below.
Dr. Boyle, along with his partner, Dr. Ca rmen, had been
covering for Mr. Colby's primary treating p lysician, Dr.
Commentucci, during Mr. Colby's February 1989 admission at
Riverview Medical Center. Although the hospital re cord indicates
that Dr. Boyle's initial impression of Mr. Colby' condition in
February 1989 was "primary liver neoplasm", he test ified that his
impression changed after tests and studies revealed ^adenocarcinoma
metastatic to the liver with unknown primary."
This later

Pitney, Hardin, Kipp & Szuch
Gregory D. Winfree, Esq. August 26, 1993 Page 2
impression is more consistent with the cause of deat.h listed in the death certificate as "metastatic cancer to the liv6r".
According to Dr. Boyle, the sole basis for his suspecting a "primary liver neoplasm" following his initial as sessment of Mr. Colby on February 2, 1989 was Mr. Colby's "huge, roc ky hard liver." However, Dr. Boyle conceded that this sign, in and of itself, was also indicative of alcohol related diseases, i.e., a irrhosis of the liver, as well as metastatic cancer to the liver.
When initially questioned, Dr. Boyle stat cd that the post
mortem examination conducted by Dr. Gulli was not d afinitive proof
that the primary location of Mr. Colby's cancer w<i s the lung, as
compared to the liver. However, since he was nc t the treating
physician in May 1989, Dr. Boyle could not coAment upon the
probable cause of death as he was not involved in M r. Colby's care
at this time.
Nevertheless, he did finally co ncede that the
possible cause of Mr. Colby's death was lung canceir
Dr. Boyle is a doctor of osteopathic medic ine, with board certification in internal medicine and gastroentero logy. Overall, he makes a fair impression as a witness. Because of his opinions elicited at his deposition, we do not antici pate that the plaintiff's attorney will call Dr. Boyle as a witness on his client's behalf at trial. At this juncture, there v ould also be no basis for calling Dr. Boyle as a witness on behalf of Union
Carbide, since the medical records for Mr. Colby' s admission at Riverview Medical Center in February 1989 confi :m Dr. Boyle's opinions obtained at the time, of his deposition, These medical records can also be relied upon by our medics 1 expert, Dr. Scoppetuolo.
Please call if you should have any quest! ons concerning the above. In the interim, we shall continue to ke ep you advised of all further developments in this matter.
Very truly yours,
KMD:ss cc: Robert L. Hollingshead

The second subpart that you {tristaned id which is exposure to toxic chemicals (3) resulting from chemical processing, is that the (> subpart of your expertise that you are giving hers (5) in this case, the Colby case? (6) A, There's really two. There's thermal (7) degradation and exposure. Thera's two things <s) occurring hare.

Going back to the report of (20) 10-22-92 can I direct your attention to tha second pi) page where Dr. Goodman undertakes a bit of the 22) summary of various hospital records that he has so) seen and I would ask you to look at the fourth line (24) down of that top paragraph. It says, This (25) indiestss patient smoked two pecks of dgarettoe
Pegs 75 (i) daily and admits to heavy ethanol intake.' The <2) reference seams to be to tha Rlverview
Hospital p) record of July 10,1983. You ware aware of that (*) statement in Dr. Goodman's report, I assume, ts) A. Yes. <4 Q. Did lhat give you greater (7) confidence that, in fact Mr. Colby would appear to <s) have bean a smoker to the extant between one and a (8) half packs and two packs a day at least? (to) A. Yes.

And the residual free monomer concentration (u> averages up to as high as 2,000 parts par mHBon os) and averaged around >60 parte par mMHan prior to (i)1974. That's the suspension. <i7) The buto represents o lower percent, I (i8) think 12A aooordktg to Mr. Wheeler's testimony, 09) by weight R*s a different system.

(17) you're referring to from the Peterson litigation he (is) says the following, at the time these resins were (is) shipped, which means from their point of (20) origination which i recall is Texas City, Texas &n primarily to OTD and go back to the road, Ihe <22) residual vinyl chloride, the residual vinyl (23) solution was estimated to be and then he lists 04) conclusion resin less than one PPM. as) A. Bight
Page 90 (i) Q. Bulk resin 15 PPM and suspension <2) resin 660 PPM. Now he also cries to his resinc (3) table at ihe end as to his support for those (4) numbers and he cites to reference numbers two, (5) three and 93 so has he not provided you with at (6> least some specific reference as to where his (7) calculations or his numbers came from. (8) Reference number two in the literature is) cited is apparently a paper by R.N. Arnold called (io> current dale of the residual vinyl chloride in (i i) suspensoVnon-soivent vinyl resins. Reference <121 number three again is to Arnold, an analysis of <i3) suspension of vinyl resins for VCM content and <u> reference number 93 is to Wheeler's letter and <ts) report to Mr. Ren (phonetic) of the U.S. Department (is) of Labor in 1975.

(8) Q. Is that independent of which type oi of
PVC resin it is? oo) A. No. This is based on suspension. I
(i i) haven't deviated from his other aseumptione In the <i2> calculation. He was saying considered to be the <i3> worst case situation. I accepted that as a worst p4) case situation and I did the following simulation os) which was on pages one, five and... (is) Q. So you came up with 3-8 PPM with <i7> those changes. Is that right? <iB) A. Yea, and then I did one other thing which (i9) he did but we did it differently. He went through <20) the Qollob Analytical Services reports which arc (2i) attached in Davidson-5. They're 50 pages of data, (22) real data taken by analytical field chemists by {23) Qollob, brought back to a lab and under a) scientifically controlled conditions analyzed
for (25) VCM. So I have e - this is the most accurate data
Page 101 (D t have seen. And he picks out only those data a) points which agree with hie simulation In the one p) pvt per million range. But I have shown and I k) have pagas upon pages of evidence that Gollob <s> provided to Union Carbide to their own analytical (>) reports, k shows that one part par mlWon waa id violated a number of times to a number of plaoce (8) throughout the entire period of their
examinations m which, by the way, took place In the *74, *75 time (io) heme which you would expect to be lower because ii n that's when they were making process changes to <12) Texes to reduce the hazard. So the situation in (is) tfw '60s had to be higher than that and yet Mr. (i) Wheeler ignored all of that In hia simulation os) chapter and only picked out those numbers which tiej agreed with hie simulation. (i7) Q. Administratively, let me dear (ia> something up. One of those comments that you've (is) just put on the record are specifically part of (20) your report in this case.

it) 0. If the skin were, in fact, with a (n PVC ream that had already eluted out all erf its <s) entrapped monomer that would not be a danger. (9) Would it? (10) A. It would have a very low order of danger n u providing it's not sitting on an open wound. Then |i2) I don't know even then. I will be highly suspect <i3> that It would causa an injury. We thought asbestos p*> was supposed to be Inert. PVC Is supposed to be (is) inert. We found that there's geometric <i> Q. So I'll adopt that as part of my nr) hypothetical that it's nert sitting on an opan <i) wound. In that situation, putting aside what other (is) effect there may be from the PVC reeling on the ecu skm. there's at least not a danger of absorption (2>) of VCM through the skin. It may be an irritant, it (22) may causa a rash. I'm not talking about pa) A. It can't have any VC (24) Q. That's right That's right Can es) the PVC act as an irritant on the skin to cause a

(h Q. Okay. Okay. Now, is it fair tom conclude working backwards that that position that <9> the lower the amount of entrapped VCM at the time (io) that the PVC resin is in contact with the skin the (i n less danger there is that it can be absorbed (12) through the skin? (ia) A. That's true. The potential la driven by (14) the concentration radiant, ns) Q. All right. All right When you (i speak on page three of your report about airborne (i7) suspension lime, it appears in the middle of the (is) top paragraph, could you tall me, pleats, why (19) airborne suspension time is a factor in . your (20) opinion?

but also in n) some detail in Peterson so I don't want to fepeat (20> ail of that but I did have a few new thoughts in i) ttus regard. (22) Aetume that ihere were no PVC resins on the (23> heat sealing equipment at tha time the flap is <2f> sealed on the bag. which is how the process works (25) as I remember. With that assumption, what fumes
Page 135 (i) would be given off by the heat sealing equipment? (2) Do you understand my question? 0) A Sure. K) Q. piminale any PVC resin from die <s) heat
(6) A. touching any hot surface there wouldn't be m any PVC problem. There may be a problem from the m glue. (9) Q. Do you know what the glue was (io) made of?
(ii) A.ta>.
<i2) Q. When you talk in your report (i3) about thermal decomposition fumes you are assuming ii*) rhat there was PVC resin precam at the time the (is) heat was applied and everything you have given us (is) in the way of an opinion flows from that nr> assumption. Does it not? (is) A. It more assumes the tacts In the case from (19) the description of all the witnesses going beck to (2o> T9 is that from the beg
break open, they can break (2i) open In most anyplace, and sometimes on the heat tzs) sealing machine. If it happens right there you (23) have copious amounts of dust on hot surfaces, then (24) you have the suspension in the - from the sir from casj thsss bags toughing the surfaces.

thermal deoompo6rtion you're talking Suuut two (20) situations with, one, the heat sealing equipment in (2ij the baggmg room and the second, any welding that (22) might be dona in

(2S) Q. So we understand our terms,
Page 143 (1) you're not referring, when you use the phrase (2) thermal decomposit)on. you're not referring to P) either the ambient temperature surrounding a (4) particle of PVC or as I think you referred to it (5) earlier, the internal temperature of the PVC resin, (6) does not qualify as thermal decomposition. (h A. Correct That's correct (8) Q. With regard to the welding, are m welding fumes toxic in the absence of PVC resins? (10) A. Yes. (11) Q. Do you know the nature of the <i2) toxicity and the by-products of the heat created by (is) the welding? Ii4) A. Yes. [is) Q. What is the nature of Ihe (ie> toxicity? Start with that first ii7) A.

(6) A. When there was welding in these areas that m he was supervising and If he was In those areas he (8> would be simHsrfy exposed to those fumes as weft (9) Q. But we dont know that That's a (io) supposition on your part and mine as to whether or in) not he was exposed to anything like that <i2) A. Correct. (is) Q. When PVC resin is not present in) during the welding operation what are Ihe (is> by-products of the welding operation in terms of (is) fumes? (17) A. Are you excluding atmospheric VCM? (is) Q. Yes. (19) A. Okay. It could be metal fumes of a large <20) variety depending whafs being welded. i2i) Q. So we're back to the same issue. (22) A. Yes. Yes. (23) Q. Perhaps I mis (24) A.

(23) Q. All right Now, let's assume (i) Page 145
(i) that the welding occurs in the presence of
PVC (2) resin or vinyl chloride monomer in tfre atmosphere, p) What is the by-product of the welding operation in (4) terms of fumes? <s) A.

(16) Correct? I'm referring to page three of your (17) report, third paragraph. (is) A. Yes. Yeah. Copolymer is the mixing or (is) Mending of two different polymers
starting from (20) two different monomers. A homopolymer is a polymer an made up in chains of the same monomer.
(22> Q. The three types of reeins, PVC (23) resine that were shipped to OTD In ihe '60s, (24) suspension, bulk and solution; were they all either gs) homo, poly or copolymer?
Page 146 (i) A. Yes. The suspension was predominantly p) homo. The solution one is the one that will be p) more likely to be a copolymer. (4> Q. And bulk is more likely to be is) what? (8> A. Homo. And the same with emulsion but that (7) wasn't -
(8> Q. Emulsion you understand to be the m fourth major PV <i0) A. Yee. (11) Q. Manufactured by Carbide at the <12) time but not shipped to OTD.
(13) Au According to their representation, yes. (14) Q. And you've accepted that. You (is> have no information to suggest to the(16) A. 1 have no problem with that
(17) Q. Does the fact that a PVC resin (is) either homopdymer or copolymer impact upon the <i9) nature of its toxicity? so) A. Yea. (21) a. In what fashion? (22) A. If they both have VCM as a starting block (23) then they both have similar toxicity with respect (24) to VCM. But the copolymer
has In addition another (2S) chemical specie, vinyl soetete or whatever It might .
Page 147 id be. It would add to the toxicity. P) 0. What determines if a resin is a p) copolymer or a homopoiymer? For example, why in [4) the situation of solution resin might there be I p) think you said vinyl acetate as the copolymer? (6) A. Yeah.
(7) Q. Is that ttte'nature of the (8) beast*? Is it Indigenous to the product or is m there - does some chemical process have to occur <io> to create a copolymer as compared to homopoiymer?
(ii) A. The tetter. Ife indigenous, Inherent ot (12) the two chemicals combining with themselves to make (i3) a copolymer in some complex way in solution In the (i> reactor. (is) Q. At the time of manufacture? <i) A. At the time of manufacture in the rsector (in vessel.
(it) Q. All right And thereafter It (19) retains its oopoiymer nature once - In other (20> words, once the reaction has occurred and there is <2i> a
copolymer of vinyl chloride monomer and vinyl (22) acetate that remains with the resine for the reet <23Q of Its ttte or until such time as ifs leached out (24) perhaps?

no) Q. Would you compare, kind of in) translate that formula for the record? Baftsusa I m (i2) not going to try. d3) A. It simply says that as a start approximate <u) that this parson goes back to 1900, thlo formula (is) goes back to 1900. Ifa staled In every toxicology (is) engineering,
quantitative toxicology book. Ifa to (in Sex's book we referenced before. (is) We use It as a flrat estimate of the <i9) combination of ail effects of multiple toxic po> elements and Ifa a formula that adds them up

So you can have additive affects <i$) of working with more or placing a combination, more (iq than one chemical, and on lop of that you could <i7) have a synergistic effect as we talked about <isi before?

Page 165 (i) to protect against this highly reactive chemical 0) just from tha point of - forget that It's (3) carcinogenic. It's highly toxic. Just to protect (4) against toxicity. H you don't know what tha lower 3) limit is and certainty if you follow the literature (6) with other materials the TLV or tha PL goes down (7) every year. It does so with asbestos. If you is) follow that history by analogy it goes down with m every chemical and they should have recognized that do grading. I made have plots of benzene, I made (ii) plots of asbestos, I made plots of aH of these 112) compounds and showed them in my studies in my (is) safety daaa, and just because every curve goes to (14) zero, what Salakoff says and Wagner, no limit la (is) safe. ii6) H Salakoff was working for-Unton Carbide (i7) in tha '50a and '60s he would have said to them wa <ie> don't have tha answer. No limit is to bo trusted. (i9) You must protect positively, and that tha engineers poj at Union Carbide would have determined wa cannot ei) control at tha point of risk with ventilation local (22) problems and, therefore, you protect tha worker <23> with respiration. (24) Q. Wouldn't that be true, however, (25) with regard to virtually every chemical in every

You have to put in that formula the word (9) reasonable. Ifa not rsascinabls to do It for (io) water. Ifa not reasonable, tfs not reasonable (t i) to do It for air, both chemicals.
It ia reasonable (i2) to do It for VCM
considering its history going bock i) to 50 or 75 years with an Indication from the <i4) medical people that there are suspect highly

(is) Q. But neither water nor air by (i9> itself is carcinogenic. Correct? (20) A. I'm not aware of It 0i) Q. UnDi such time as any particular (22)
chemical is shown affirmatively not to be 03) carcinogenic are you suggesting that these (24) precautions would have been reasonable
throughout 05) the chemical manufacturing industry In the 1960s
Page 167 (1) for any chemical? (2) A. Not any chemical. Just those chemicals 0) where you do have a history from tha literature a (4> pattern of It getting worse with the knowledge with (s> every year.
Tha ingredient was steep enough in (> that for Union Carbide to aay vinyl chloride m
monomer, we know the unsaturated bonds ia
a highly <ei reactive Item. Whan it is protein it has - tha () medical field knew and understood that SO years (io> ago. That's not
water. Water doesn't dothat with (ii) protein. Unsaturated carbon bond does. That's why (i2> benzene is a carcinogen, that's why VCM Is a ii3) carcinogen. Ifa that double bond that
la a (u) problem. Ifa a vary reactive group. (i$) Q. You already received your degree (i) as a chemical engineer by the time the early '60s (i7) came about (is) A. Right
d9) Q. Was that the view of chemical <20 engineers in the industry with regard to any
highly 01) reactive chemical, i.e., that there is a very 02) strong likelihood with a highly reactive chemical 03) that it may eventually turn out to be a carcinogen? 04) A. Not necessarily a carcinogen. Highly g5) toado. Thafs enough.

IK taka it oul Was that the ts) general view of the chemical engineering tirade, (7) your practice as wall as the chemical industry in p) the 1960s, that a highly reactive chemical just by pi having that knowledge could mean that It could
(io) eventually be shown to be a highly toxic chemical 01) so that workers needed to be protected from it? <i2) A If you add to that equation the pattern
and (i3> the divuigence of the medical literature that la iu> paralleling tha engineering concerns.
