There has arisen, however, a misconception of the full intent of what I wish to convey to your group. In order that the statement in the CPLIA Newslettor of November 1969 not bo mis construed, the use of any asbestos containing fireproofing material must be accompanied by adequate precautions to prevent exposures to construction slto wortanon and to prevent pollution about the slto. This would include ccmontitious material as well as sprayed mineral fiber. Happily, I am impressed with the vigor with which tho fireproofing industry is approaohlng the development of necessary safety precautions. Thank you again for your Bind hospitality. Very truly yours, IrvinAJ. Sollkoff, M.D, Division of Environmental floiences Laboratory cc. to Mr. Joseph Baker Mr. John J. Bucbolts Mr. Charles 7. Clay
