- PLAINTIFF'S EXHIBIT MON-2714 August 8, 1972 Mr. E. Hinds Alvin cleaners 415 W. House Alvin, Texas 77511 Dear Mr. Hinds: Re Blanket Order Number CB--45329 This will confirm our telephone conversation of today, during which we discussed coveralls being deemed by you under the above referenced blanket order, which will be contaminated with asbestos dust. As per our discussion, Monsanto will seal these coveralls in a plastic bag prior to shipment to you, and this plastic bag will serve as a means of your identifying the contaminated clothing. We also discussed the fact that wetting the coveralls ends any hazard that may exist from the asbestos. You indicated that your method of handling will be to completely submerge each pair of coveralls, while still in the plastic bag in the machine, filled with water, in which they are to be washed. The bag will be opened underwater, thereby keeping to an absolute minimum any chance of the asbestos dust getting into the air. We agreed that this should be a safe way to handle this clothing. LAM021904 6113 22523 E. Hinds 2 August 8, 1972 We wish to thank you for your cooperation in this matter* and ask that you feel free to contact us# at your con venience* with any questions you may have. Yours very truly.
