Dear Dr, Peary*
A recent N.I.O.S.IL. survey demonstrated an extremely serious and critical occupational health situation at the* Pittsburgh Corning Corporation Amosite Asbestos Thermal Pipe Insulation Plant In Tyler,
N.I.O.S.H, Industrial hygiene surveys In 1967 and 1970 yielded grossly excessive fiber concentrations compared to current and proposed asbestoe standards, and those results sere forearmed to tha company for appro priate action, Hollowing requests for evaluation and assistance from tha Texas State Health Department and tha T.ocal readership cf Lbs Oil :"vsac*l and Atomic Vorkera International Palon, N.I.O.S.H. conducted a comprehensive Industrial hygiene and medical survey during the meek of October 26 to 29, 1971,
The survey pointed out major industrial hygiene deficiencies which a grossly inadequate ventilation ayatea and poor housekeeping
practices. In August 1971, respirators were made mandatory In all areas concomitant with application for variance from the current aebestoe standard; however, our survey personnel observed many employees with loose or unconnected straps. Also, there wss no progxamifor the fitting and maintenance of respirators. Again personal air asspl^e yielded grossly excessive fiber concentrations In all production, finishing, and shipping areas.
K.I.O.S.H. medical questionnaires and examinations for rales and finger clubbing were conducted by our survey team on 63 employees In order to complement the X-rays and pulstonar- function tests performed by Dr, George Hurst of the East Texas Chest Hospital in August 1971 at the request of ` the Pittsburgh Corning Corporation, One film was read as a pulmonary neoplasm by Dr. Burst, and this' diagnosis was confirmed following hospitalization. In addition, several films were read as possible

rmlnw. y fibrosis* However, Dr. Lae Grant, Medical Consultant to the .w 'Pittsburgh Corning ''orporation, has delayed release of these flics to
B.X.O.S.H. and xts expert panel of radiologists pending his personal ... n-.-..
review of the flics.- Even without benefit of the X-rays, 7 of 18 workers with greater than ten.years esployment at the Tyler Plants
'* -~
seat at least three-of four criteria.'for asbestoals. These criteria'-.- --
include: (1)' forced vital capacity below 801' of predicted, (2) dyspnea, * ` -
(3) finger clubbing, and (4) rales. Positive X-ray results could in
crease further- the number of cases of asbestoals. Reduced pulmonary .
.
function was also observed in a few workers with less than five years
employment.
Therefore, medical follow up of current and past employees Is Indicated. Timed 1 eta corrective action Is necessary to reduce asbestos exposure levels to conform to existing standards.

ventilation system analysis
An evaluation of ventilation system problems was made by John P. Boyle cn November 29, 1971-
Toe overall system analysis was based on several different fact rs of which the following items were considered:
1. System air handling capacities were evaluated by taking pitot. traverse data in the major exhaust duets with an Alnor velometer and 18" pitot probe attachment.
2* Capture velocity data was monitored at all hood openings.
3. lack of confinement'was determined from comparison of exhaust air quantities at hood openings versus the amount of air being-handled by the system.
4. Housekeeping and uncontrolled dust sources were used as Indicators on the efficiency of the system confinement and ventilation efficiency Gross housekeeping violations and other dust sources were recorded by photography.

OBSERVATIONS:
*
1. System confinement is very poor. Hood air flow for feeder systems No. 1 and No. 2 were found to he 859 cfm where the exhaust duct for this system was handling 2,060 cfm. The same condition was noted at Feeder Unit No. 3 where air flow at the hoods dropped down to 855 cfm. from an exhaust air flow capacity of 1,690 cfm. Therefore, actual system leakage accounts for an efficiency of 50Z or more.
Conditions noted included the following:
a) The hacks from the feeder units had been left off.
b) Cover plates to access ports for equipment drives were, missing.
c) Inspection openings were broken, and left open.
2. Ventilation control of asbestos fiber dust was practically non* existent.
a) Capture velocities were not maintained at the feeder hoods.
b) There was considerable spillage of dust from feeder openings (backs, drives, inspection ports, hoppers.)
c) Spillage from the feeder transfer belt system was found to be a continuous dust source.
d) The bag filter unit from the dust collection system discharges air back into the building. Such a filter can not remove all the fine dust and is a source of personnel exposure.
3. The system air flow is too low to prevent settling out of fibers inside the exhaust ducts. This is a design problem which requires correction since system pluggage occurs, and then there is a total lack nf dust control.

Note: The twelve-inch duet to Builder Holts Mb. 2 and Mb. 3 was almost plugged at time of test, such that the duct capacity was greatly reduced.
Observations;
1. Dust In the builder area is confined to the builder machines by a negative pressure. Openings are small and confinement is good except when exhaust duct pluggage occurs.
2. The ovens at the south end of the builder area are exhausted to the outside. Each unit handles approximately 8,000 cfm. Opening capture velocities are adequate for dust confinement (125 to 300 fpm).
3. The bag filter unit located just north of the builder machine work area seems to be the principal source of fiber dust contamination in this area. Dust is pulled through the work area by the oven exhaust systems on the south side.
4. Equipment cleaning is a second principal source of dust contamination. Extensive housekeeping is required to minimize such problems;
FINISHING AREA VENTILATION SYSTEM ANALYSIS
The small, intermediate and large saws are on one exhaust system with a bag filter located outside the building. Each saw has a blast gate for shutting it off when not in use. The exhaust system is used for one saw at a time.
The block saw system is separate with an inside bag filter unit.

Observations:
FINISHING AREA VENTILATION SYSTEM ANALYSIS (continued)
1. Hood exhaust quantities approximate the overall air volume being handled by the system. Therefore, system leakage is negligible.
2. Visual observation indicated a lack of ventilation control during part transfer between cutting operations. Better confinement is indicated.
3. Considerable floor contamination occurred during usage of the saw. Cleanup was not made directly after completing the job. Floor contamination is one of the biggest sources of contamination in this area.
4. Floor contamination is blown by pneumatic system, piping vents which discharge under the saw conveyor belt location.

Observations:
1. Hood exhaust quantities approximate the overall air volume being handled by the system. Leakage is negligible.
2.. Visual observation indicates a lack of ventilation control during part transfer between cutting operations. Such control is totally lacking when the outside door East of the intermediate saw is opened. The employees open it most of the time.

FIHISHINC AREA VENTILATION SYSTE-t ANALYSIS (continued)
>. Air is used to blow dust from slitting operations on the small .-.aw . This is outside the hood. A cloud of dust rises each time the air jet blows dust toward the slitter exhaust hood.
block Saw Ventilation
1- Ventilation is extremely poor due to lack of dust confinement,
2. The open door interfere with dust control.
3. The spot exhaust unit for the block trimming operation is blocked by a solid plate being used to support the block during cutting.

Existing Control Programs
Tiia following information was submitted by Mr. Charles Van Horne at closing conference with J. P. Boyle and C. R. Holder;
Cl) Respirator Program
"All personnel in production areas of the plant are required to wear BUS Approved Respirators, MSA Dustfoe Ultra filter cartridge Type 4, which are 99.98Z efficient for 0.3 micron particles, dusts, mists, * fumes, smokes and extremely fine toxic aerosols and/or radioactive materials."
a) All personnel were noted to be wearing such equipment in production areas.
b) Approximately 30 to 5QX of personnel do not wear the respirators properly. This was brought to Mr. Van Horne's attention. Be was requested to contact vendors for proper recommendations and to correct this deficiency.
Mr. Van Horne stated "vendors will be contacted and your recommendations will be followed today. X shall notify my supervisors immediately f your comment on respirator usage."
The immediate potentially serious hazard for production personnel is . controlled by respiratory protection.
Mr. Holder asked if a prephysical examination were required for new men. Van Horne indicated that this practice had been discontinued for the past two years. He was advised that under these conditions he would be unable to determine if the new men were physically able to wear a respirator.
(2) Possible substitution of material
Question - What progress has been made on coming up .with as alternate or substitute material?
Answer - Of course we plan to shut down the plant on January 31, 1972, and Che men have already been notified.
The use of mineral wool as an alternate material was researched for 16 - 18 months.
A new roll up procedure for mineral, wool is no good due to quality and
economics.
