VCM PERSONNEL MONITORING - JULY 1983
DATE: AUGUST 1, 1983 V
Attached are July Vinyl Chloride exposure reports for the Pasadena Plant.
The typewritten table shows the individual data on personnel in the various job classifications as monitored by the Charcoal Tube method and the time a fresh air mask was worn.
The computer tables consist of a summary of major plant areas, a de tailed breakdown of VCM contents at each sample point in each area (Tables 1-9) and specific sample points in areas where levels are possibly 2 1 ppm (Tables 10 - 14).
