470-2, W. G. ICLassen cc: South Plainfield, C. B. Setterberg 170-1, W. V. Holloway Pile (2) 170-6, G. R. Krug Safety Audit - South Plainfield Plant - June 16, 1970 June 26, I970 SUMMAET The industrial hygiene exposure presented by the Spray-Ebn operation is severe. Both Celite and Asbestos dust and spills are widespread. This is the worst toxic dust hazard I have seen In the company. Three out of forty-nine exposed employees that were recently xrayed, have questionable x-ray plates and need re-testing. The heavy production schedule certainly magiifies a problem that should have been corrected at the time of initial construction, Installation of the approved duet collection eys-tem should be expedited. A rigidly enforced respirator program is needed. A 100$ safety eye protection program should be considered. Between dust problems from Spray-Don and those created by the accelerated market for felt, an uncontrollable housekeeping problem exists. Present building and equipment arrangements aggravate the problem, causing considerable haulage of otherwise re-usable waste. CSEK:bp QOT ?! Q T D W
