Industrial Hygiene Asbestos Exposure Monitoring
. 7
Attached are the results of three days asbestos monitoring on insulators at the Institute Plant while removing asbestos from approx. 580 feet of line in the trench at the ethylene oxide unloading rack between the #2 and #3 docks. The area was barricaded and amended water was used throughout the abatement process. An enclosure was not used because of train movement through this area on a daily basis.
Two of the seven personal samples exceeded the 0.2 fiber/cc permissible exposure level of 0SHA Standard 29 CFR 1926.58. Two of the seven samples exceeded the 0.1 fiber/cc level of the same standard. We encourage the use of supplied air respirators as much as possible in the asbestos abatement program.
Employees wore not street clothes, two pair of coveralls, headcovers, boots, gloves and A0 R57-A HEPA half-face cartridge respirators.
Please inform of the monitoring results as soon as possible.
