Dear Mon
Thank you for your congratulations and any assistance that we may
receive from you
I appreciate very much all your advises regarding the environmental
and health problems given to me Be sure that the improvement on
these matters are priorities for me and in particular at this moment the project to eliminate the silica primary milling at Asbestos de Mexico and the creation of a medical clinte for health control to assist all our employees
In the morning of July 8 I gave Mr. Reitze a summary on the projects regarding the environmental control that have been approved
in our Investment Plan I asked him to send me the results of his
recent visit to our asbestos using plants which I have not receive yet as well as to suggest those projects that were not included in our
programs and he considers importants to be added for our different
plants and to let me know their priority to analyze them including
their cost in protp o po ros poe se such projetcotts he Boa asr sod on

Dear Jose
I understand that you are the newly appointed General Manager for the Asbestos de Mexico operations My congratulations to
you
v
I am writing this letter about the most recent dust surveys that were performed by our Mr. Bill Reitze at your asbestosusing plants within Mexico As you will agree there are some very serious problems particularly at the Guadalajara and Hermosilla plants In the past I have been working with Ricardo Cabrera indicating to him that it is absolutely essential to clean up these plant operations fact I have been through the plant at Barrientos and have noted much progress in the past three years
I strongly urge that you as the new Manager take personal
charge to see that these environmental problems are corrected
in the shortest possible period of time I am suggesting that
you immediately put into effect a mandatory respiratory
program at the Guadalajara and Hermosilla plants if this has
not already engineering
been done controls to
This should be followed up by proper get the dust counts down below 2 fibres
and the correction of all of the individual problems pointed
out in the dust surveys for each plant
The dust levels as they now exist are unacceptable and are causing disease among your employees I am disappointed that more progress has not been made particularly in view of prior assurances made to me by the management of Asbestos de Mexico
To reduce your own
that you give dust
and your company's liability I suggest control your Number 1 priority above all
other things

Also it is necessary for me as a supplier of asbestos fibre
to your company to assure that our liability is no longer exposed Therefore I request that you inform me on the actions you have taken and follow this up with periodic re-
ports every three months until the next dust surveys are scheduled
As long as you are making progress in eliminating this problem and are enforcing a respirator program we can continue to ship fibre to you However if the proper precautions are not taken and with the proper sense of urgency we will have no choice but to stop shipping our asbestos fibre to you
ask We will help you in every way possible so please
any assistance needed
