Collins <br /> Dear Mr. Collins: <br /> RE: Hazardous Wastes - Asbestos <br /> Per our telephone conversation March 19, 1975, I am following up with <br /> this letter for the record, and also to give you more detailed infor- <br /> mation. <br /> Y have a copy of "California Guidelines for the Handling of Hazardous <br /> Wastes" from your Berkley office. The "Guidelines" classify Asbestos <br /> (waste) as a hazardous waste. <br /> Phone conversations with you and Dr. Storm of your Berkley office have <br /> left me with questions in my mind as to the exact application of <br /> hazardous waste disposal regulations and also the exact definition of <br /> Asbestos waste. Indications from our conversations are that our wastes <br /> pay not be hazardous, and I am asking for clarification. <br /> The Stockton Plant of Johns-Manville Products Corporation manufactures <br /> Asbestos Cement Pipe. The raw materials we use in our Asbestos Cement <br /> product are: <br /> 1. Portland Cement <br /> 2. Silica Flour <br /> 3. Asbestos <br /> N <br /> Our product is a homogeneously bonded combination of the three materials <br /> in a cured state. Asbestos constitutes approximately 15% of the dry <br /> weight of the finished product. <br />
