Forde Vice President and General Manager of Victor Products Division Dana Corporation located in Lisle Illinois Don Vice McDowell Pro's Technical Director Richard Russell Engineering of McCord and Marc Fleischaker our attorney These gentlemen will help answer any questions which the panel has following my prepared remarks Pro Incorporated McCord Gasket Corporation sub- sidiary of sion Dana Cell Corporation and Victor Products DiviCorporation are major manufacturers of gaskets used in exhaust systems and turbochargers cylinder heads intake manifolds and engine and gear cases We have brought along some examples of these products for the Panel's review Historically the qualities requisite to a satisfactory gas- ket produc-t- heat resistance chemical inertness and ser- vice life longevityslong-evitys- have been best achieved by the use of materials containing asbestos Gaskets while clearly addressed by the proposed rule have received little attention either in public comments submitted on the proposal or in these hearings Nevertheless the proposal would have a significant impact on each of our companies and we believe that it will be useful for the EPA to have our perspective on the proposed regulation We support the EPA's desire to eliminate asbestos from the marketplace In our testimony today we will discuss why we have reached this conclusion and provide alternate suggestions as to how this It might be useful goal can be met for initially for us to gaskets provide some background information about why we are testifying as a group Some two years ago it became evident during informal meetings conversations at various industry that each of our companies was concerned about the use of asbestos in our products While we have no evidence whatsoever that the use of asbestos in automotive gaskets has ever caused health problems either in our own workplaces or among persons who work with motor vehicles our companies independently had reached the conclusion that the use of asbestos should be eliminated There were two reasons for this conclusion First asbestos had obviously become a societal concern and we therefore felt a social responsibility to deal with its use Second we recognized that the failure to deal with this issue could in the longer run lead to worker dissatisfaction and increasing litigation insurance will be prohibitively expensive for which liability or unavailable Because of these mutual beliefs our three companies have met several times during the past two years -- with legal counsel present -- to discuss issues connected with the phasing out of asbestos mental activity we have In addition to monitoring govern- exchanged information about the reactions of some of our major customers to the elimination of asbestos the incentives which may be available insurance companies to eliminate asbestos and the from availability of substitutes for particular applications We believe that are continuing our discussions have been | fruitful and they During the intervening two years our companies desire to deal progressively with the asbestos situation has not waivered Our companies have independently committed themselves to removing asbestos in gaskets and have made substantial progress in doing so Pro McCord and Dana are all converting from asbestos to substitute products as early as such a conversion is feasible This conversion is very expensive in retooling is not and will not be and other costs at the same time While the conversion for all three companies for each product it will be based upon the ready availability of substitutes which are fully functional in the applications in which they are used and the ability to offer the substitutes at competitive prices Needless to say it .
