Dear Mrs. Hutchison:
I would lik e to stop in your o ffic e to discuss a couple points on: ta lc . I w ill be in Washington the la tt e r part of next week and would lik e to v is it you on Wednesday afternoon (November 5) i f you have time availab le then.
There are two points I would lik e to discuss. F ir s t ly , there has been ta lk in the ta lc industry that EPA has some current interest in t a lc , presumably eminating out of th e ir In d u strial Standards Emmission Branch. I would lik e to know whether your agency is involved in that work and i f so what the objective and scope of i t is . In the event MSHA is not involved in the EPA t a lc work then perhaps you could route me to the proper coordinating s p e c ia lis t at the EPA o ffice s at 401 M Street, SW DC. Secondly, I would lik e to ta lk to anyone of your s t a ff who is abreast of intended changes in the TLV for ta lc which ACGIH has under review.
I w ill c a ll you on November 5 when I arrive in the Washington area to make sure Wednesday afternoon is convenient for you and i f not I could f i t into your schedule Thursday or Friday morning.
Thank you very much.
