Katzenmeyer has done personnel monitoring at the Avon lake General Chemical plant and is currently conducting a survey at the Louisville plant. His preliminary data indicates good correlation with Bendix and OVA residual vinyl chloride results, We shall consider our present OVA and Bendix monitoring to fulfill the OSHA requirements for personnel monitoring until suitable equipment and procedures are set up for personnel monitoring at each individual plant. The Ambient Vinyl Chloride Standards Committee has agreed upon the following program. Each Plant Manager should select a man to coordinate personnel moni toring at his plant. A training program is being set up by Mr. Paul Zakriski to train your representative on the proper sampling and analytical procedures. This program is tentatively arranged for April 25th at the Avon Lake Technical Center. The arrangements for your people will be handled by Mr. Pete Dmyterko at the Avon Lake Technical Center. Please have your representative contact him for additional information. Herm Waltemate has ordered personnel monitoring pumps for your plants. The following plants will receive four pumps each -- Avon Lake, Louisville, Henry, Pedricktown, Long Beach, and Calvert City. Two pumps are being sent to ITC, Lansing, Gloucester, Shawinigan, and Niagara Falls. Other equipment such as the type of carbon trap to be used, etc., will be explained at the training sessions. to ToOCZZO 419*. ACV< 11/70 LlTMO. I* U..A. BpG02465 ''Personnel Monitoring April 11, 197A Page 2 The temporary OSHA standard requires monitoring for three consecutive weeks in areas where vinyl chloride or PVC is manufactured and processed. This will initially be interpreted to mean all PVC and Process Buildings where we are currently monitoring for vinyl chloride concentrations. We propose to check three different job classifications in such areas on a weekly basis. Three dif ferent operators can be monitored at the same time. The pump and sampling will require a period of four hours for sample collection. At the end of this time the carbon trap will be removed and taken to the lab for analysis by gas chromatography. If after three successive weeks of monitoring we can show substantial agreement with our Bendix and OVA data, the frequency of monitor ing can be reduced to once per month, providing the results do not show concen trations exceeding 50 parts per million. Employees working in areas to be monitored should be given an opportunity to observe the monitoring procedures* Records of all data must be kept in writing for at least five years and must be available for OSHA and employee review. Each employee shall be notified if he is exposed to vinyl chloride concentra tions of greater than 50 parts per million and what steps are being taken to lower these concentrations* A copy of the Emergency Temporary OSHA Standards is attached for a more de tailed explanation of these requirements. Your cooperation in implementing this program is appreciated. GDS/cls Atts. cc: H. Waltemate E. B. Katzenmeyer, Jr E. W. Harrington C. R. Flynn L. B. Crider J. W. Gressler J. G. DiSalvo D. A.

On January 22, 1974. the Occupational Safety and Health Administration was informed by the National Institute`for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSm that the D. Y.

It is concluded therefore, that vinyl chloride is carcinogenic for hu mans.
