P.O. Box VOTt Tyler, Texas 757to, Tel: vi-iaiu'.' v.ii Tyler Pipe Subsidiary of Tyler Corporation August 14, 1984 Dr. Del Kehbiel U. S. Department of Labor OSHA Dallas Area Office Central Place, Suite 230 1425 W. Pioneer Drive Irving, TX 75061 RE: OSHA #M8099 - No. 123 Dear Dr. Kehbiel": This letter is to up-date you on our progress concerning our dust compliance plan. We have been trying a number of different methods to control the dust in the different areas of the foundry. We have been able to bring the dust pretty well under control as long as we are able to use our mancooling systems, but each time we check it with our mancooling systems off, we find that we are back out of compliance. We have brought in a consultant to help us come up with additional ideas on how to control the dust in these areas. Upon initial review with the consultant, he is not very optimistic of being able to bring the units into compliance. We will be trying additional shielding and some hooding, to collect more of the dust in these areas. It appears at the present time we may still have to ask for additional time to implement these projects that our consultant will be suggesting. We will continue to submit progress reports during this time. If at any time you would like additional information, please do not hesitate to ask for it. Sincerely, TYLER PIPE INDySTRIF.S, INC.
