ASBESTOS DUSK EXPOSURE - RESEARCH PERSONNEL
In answer to your letter on our exposure to asbestos dust, it must be stated that all of us hare been exposed to some asbestos dust dot-ending upon our Rears of service in the tile industry.
People like myself, Jim Sullivan, Crawford Snith, Pete Belle, have been exposed to a lesser or greater 'ogre depending upon whether we werw in a plant or out of a plant from 10*15 years. I would say that I have probably been a:t much exposed as anyone since I have spent many ytaxs working directly in a plant.
The exposure today of m> people in primarily concerned when plant trials are run and those people involved with the plant trial get near the Banbury decks. This is occasional, but I would say on the average of 2-3 times a year, the majority of my people would be thualy exposed.
The majority of technicians are exposed daily to minute quantities which are used in mixing laboratory batches. The material is stored in bins and care is taken not to float the material into the air, but there is still sene exposure. I do not believe we have poor conditions in this matter, but nevertheless, there is some exposure.
