All companit were represented. Mr. J ames McGarry, Counsel for the ISEA, received an unpublished draft of Title 30, Code of Federal Regulations Part II (30 CFR II) from the Washington Counsel of the Department of In crior (bureau of Minos).

A letter recommending the ISEA position will be sent to Bob Schutz, J Chairman of ZOO Committee. The attached "Warning Label" agreed upon at the June meeting in Bermuda was to be used on October 1, 1971 was delayed until January 1, 1972.

A meeting with the Government lawyers was set for October 5, 1971. The ISEA will be represented by six from the top management of i the respirator manufacturers and two technical representatives.

Hyatt will not fight this action, therefore, it was agreed the manufacturers should accept Hyatt's invitation to come to Los Alamos to learn what he is doing to test respirator fit. ~ DEPOSITION '.0 PyTCI'/ V 11c, -?

These were Liic most significant points to 3M. the suggestion that single use respirators not be limited to protecting only against pneumoconiosis or fibrosis producing dusts. Since the coal due fit test is the only fit test mentioned in 30 CFR i I, the manu facturers also recommend the following: 1. Respirators for use against dusts not significantly more toxic than lead dust (includes single use). A 10% leakage be allowed and the use be limited to 20 times the TIV. Respirators for use against fumes of certain metals, air contaminated by asbestos containing dusts, and radon daughte (includes single use), a !>% leakage be allowed and the use be limited to 10 times the TIV.
