Dear
Bob:
Today
I have finished compiling data on our earlier testing
of the new machine for sandblasting, and I’m happy
to inform you that, as we thought, the tests bear out
the fact that the process is as close as possible to
harmless.
After
taking the tags obtained in the testing process and
comparing them to OSHA’s guidelines on irritant
dusts, silicosis standards, and other respirable dust
studies, it is apparent that using the machine is safer
than walking on the beach on a windy day.
Results
are as follows:
TAG
ONE:
Test Duration: Four minutes, fourteen seconds.
At no time during this test did the real-time particulate
concentration in the immediate vicinity of the user
exceed OSHA’s PEL, TWA, or STEL limits, actual
numbers below:
TAG
ONE:
Maximum real-time exposure, during four-minute duration
of use, reached 14 micrograms per square meter, well
below the OSHA limit.
Sincerely,
Zane Cofield, Senior Consultant
