Dear Mr. Patel:
Thank you for your letter of July 13, concerning the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's (OSHA) requirements for asbestos removal bags. You have assumed that OSHA requires that six mil thick bags be used for asbestos removal, and you question why OSHA has more stringent requirement than Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Dear Mr. Yager,
My apologies for the long response time for your letter of November 7, 1990. You asked if a person preparing slides for asbestos analysis need be 582 trained. This is not strictly required, so long as the proper preparation procedures are followed. It is required that the people reading the slides be 582 trained. Should you have any further questions, they will be handled much more expeditiously.
