This claim has been referred to the Division of Safety and Hygiene for the purrose of securing dust counts It so states in this claim that this claimant worked on construction jobs as an insulator and no dust count can be made because all jobs that he worked on h^/ve
been completed We can therefore only estimate what exposure this
wan would have to insulating material
Materials similar to the type that this man worked with have
been found to be mace of practically all sestos fiters and it is
quite possible that this claimant may quired to saw various lengths of this or some other tyce of cutting machine
to sbestos dust He mentions in his
have on some occasions be rematerial either with 3 han saw
and would therefore be exposed
claimant that he worked with a
product which was made of glass and which was very dusty and harzful
All of the insulating material of this tyre contains rockwool which is
a Flass fiber and does not contain
writer's belie that this claimant
free silica was exposed
nor ashestos It is the
to asbestos dust during
his course of employment but that the concentrations would be impossible
to ascertain at the present time
If the Medical Jenartment deems it necessary e will obtain
some of this material and take a dust count while it is being sawed I oelieve one can safely estimate that the concentration of dust which
would be generated at this type of oneration would be within a range
of from 5 to N.
Very truly yours
