Klyng June 24, 1987 ^^^LAWTIFF'S exhibit I Copy to: A. P. Yalcinkaya Subject: Pre-Demolition Walk-thru Bldg 187, & #32 Boiler Turbine Based on the questionnaire and walk-thru inspection of these two areas the following industrial hygiene concerns were- identified: Bldg 187 - no concerns Boiler Turbine - A significant amount of asbestos insulation is present on lines and vessels in the area. In addition it is uncertain if the refractory in the boiler itself contains asbestos. Under UCC policies all asbestos removal is to be conducted in negative pressure enclosures unless it is either unfeasible to do so or it is a small scale job. Any contractor bidding on this job should be made aware of this policy. In addition he should be required to provide an on site industrial hygienist during the asbestos removal to monitor exposures to contract employees daily. The refractory should be sampled to determine if it contains asbestos. The sample should be sent to Dick LaCour in Bldg. 133 for analysis. As with any asbestos demolition we must assure ourselves that notice is sent to the Galveston County Health Department at least 20 days prior to the date removal is started. If you have any questions please give me a call. Sincerely, kemedemo Kirk E. Martin UCTC 18875
