Industrial Hygiene Asbestos Exposure Monitoring
Attached are the results of the non-abatement asbestos exposure monitoring performed on J. A. Ingram and W. S. Ballingall while pulling computer cable above ceiling tile and through service shafts in Building 770. They were equipped with Half-face Willson R-12 HEPA filtered respirators.
The exposure monitoring indicates that the levels were well below the 0.1 fiber/cc Action Level, established by OSHA for an 8-hour workday (TWAg). However, anyone working above or removing ceiling tile must continue to wear the protective equipment, mentioned above, until enough data is gathered to indicate a problem does not exist, whenever doing this type of work.
Please notify 0. A. Ingram and W. S. Ballingall of their exposure monitoring results as soon as possible. Please have them sign and date this report and return to M. A. Patel at Building 701-330.
If we can be of further assistance, please feel free to call us on extension 4779 or 3750.
