C-8 WORKPLACE EXPOSURE EVALUATION
I have analyzed the air monitoring data, supplied by Hike HcCtusky
for ten Job assignments at Washington Works, using LOGAH where appropriate. None of the 82 personal samples taken were above the 0.59 moles/billion expo
sure limit* (0.01 lag/or}.
Three of the ten assignments require at least one more sample to assure that we are meeting our corporate objective of a maximum risk of expo sure above the Exposure Limit [f^L) of 5%. These are:
FEP Polykettle Operator (PER5 1BPA) "Teflon" Po1ykett1e Operator (PER5 08PF) Polydispersion Operator (PER5 08PH)
The other seven assignments meet this criteria. They are listed
below with recommended resampling schedule to assure continued compliance.

*The p1ant.,is apparently operating with a limit of 0.56 ppb versus the AEL of 0.01 mg/m . According to my calculation using 414 as the molecular weight for C-8, the limit should be 0.59. Tony PJaytis by copy of this letter should
check to confirm.
