FILE NAME: Abex (ABX) DATE: 1978 May 19 DOC#: ABX223 DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION: Confidential Memo RE Asbestos Dust & Worker Concern Personal & Confidential May 19, 1978 To;- Messrs. F. A. Cappucci - Trevose R. A. Gerde - Memphis E. W . Jones - Wood Dale W. w. Phipps - Hayward Subject; ASBESTOS DUST Apparently several of the warehouse personnel are showing some concern relative to asbestos dust because of the nature of the beast. This is further compounded by the fact that we may have to re-box and even de-edge code. Because of this we will need your help and perhaps you can give us some answers to the following questions along with any other comments you might have: 1. How much time do you spend re-boxing product now? 2. How much de-edge coding are you having to do, and if so, what is your procedure for removing the edge code? 3. What equipment in the way of grinders, wire brushes, etc., do you use? Would also like your comments relative to sweeping up the dust from the warehouse floors, racking, etc. Obviously, you want to gain this information as subtly as you can and return it to this writer's attention under confidential cover. Might we ask that you get this to us no later than June 2nd. Thank you. /me E. P. Hoff ce; B. Iwarsson . R. L. Cutler C. B. Mallory Blind Note to B. Iwarsson/C. B.
