Dear Milt:
Enclosed are ten copies of the means for the 261 exposure days of the vinyl chloride study. The averages of these means are:
50. 15 ppm for T-I Target 50 ppm 200. 10 ppm for T-II Target 200 ppm 2465. 71 ppm for T-III Target 2500 ppm 24 67. 23 ppm for T- IV Target 2 500 ppm
T-IV as you will recall, was the group allowed food and bedding during exposure.
The concentration data are also available in the 7th and 18th month status reports on this project.
If I can be of any further service to MCA, please do not hesitate to call me.
Sincerely
JWG/dm enc.
