Molinini and J. Traina i. of Gollob Analytical Service visited Amboy Terminaling and moni tored two employees for eight hours to obtain a time weightedaverage for vinyl chloride exposure. In addition, gas samples were taken in special evacuated glass containers from several areas in the warehouse. The results of the warehouse sampling are reported separately under G.A.S. 32588 dated 12/9/74. All monitoring data are presented in the following table.
