RE: OSHA LABELING
Dear Peter:
Dr. Gottesman suggested I send to your attention the attached
letter we received from OSHA concerning target organ effect labeling for PVC.
In light of your ongoing discussions with OSHA concerning a clarification on the labeling of PVC as a carcinogen under the Vinyl Chloride Standard and the Hazard Communication Standard, I ' believe you might also want to address the issue raised in the attached letter at your August 24 meeting with Prank White at OSHA. This appears to be a generic issue for the PVC industry as a whole to address.
In the interim, we plan to contact the OSHA area office in Illinois to determine the basis for their "suggestion".
We would appreciate any comments that you might have on this subject.
Sincerely,
Mark A. Gruenwald
