In the case of mining, we have no background of air borne fiber concentrations during the mining operation. Samples-will be taken during the operation this year to give us this information. Our operators are required to wear respirators at the mine area while screening ore, and, an a very minimum, any- contractor employees who are operating in dusty areas will have to use respirators per the regulations until air-borne quantities of fiber can be determined. . I am enclosing a number of booklets, published by Johns-Hanvilie for your use if desired* We have handed these booklets out to our employees as a means of employee education in view of the adverse publicity concerning asbestos in Idle last 2-3 years.

Answering Utter dal* Svb/tcf February 11, 1974 INVENTORIES From our discussions, we have gained a better understanding of your problem in obtaining accurate feed weights on asbestos ore. There seems to be mutual agreement that the best way to proceed is to use the actual quantity of each product produced in a month divided by the standard recovery for that product to obtain a calculated feed weight. The total for all products will represent the ore usage from the stockpile for the month. The belt scale weight should be used as a check against this calculation, but we feel that the above method should be the one used to determine the usage of record each month. 'i We will be interested in knowing the results of your next ore pile exhaustion which we understand may occur sometime next summer. JTM/jl UCC 009312 ^ ^ ft i V t Q- rtB 1 1 1974
