1 Symposium on Natural Occurrences of Asbestos (NOA) Sponsored by ASTM Committee D22 on Air Quality April 30 May 1, 2015 Marriott Anaheim Anaheim, CA Symposium Co-Chairmen: Mark Bailey Asbestos TEM Labs Berkeley, CA Jim Millette MVA Scientific Consultants Duluth, GA ABOUT THE EVENT Identified occurrences of NOA with the potential to affect workers and the general public continue to be discovered at an ever increasing rate, with many of the new occurrences being found in rock & soil that is not from expected ultra-mafic rock sources. The presence of NOA in rock and soil presents great challenges to parties involved in assessing and mitigating exposures to this hazardous material. The problems presented by NOA require specialists in multiple disciplines, including asbestos laboratory technical supervisors, toxicologists, epidemiologists, risk assessors, government regulators, industrial hygienists, environmental consultants, geologists, mineralogists and soil scientists. It is the goal of this proposed two-day conference to bring together the leading specialists from the various disciplines described above to discuss new information that has been recently discovered about NOA, and to delve deeply into the problems and complexities that NOA presents, in order to increase the knowledge and understanding of all who attend. The four sessions are: 1. Occurrence and Geology of NOA/Field Assessment & Sampling 2. Mineralogy of NOA/Laboratory Issues Related to Sample Preparation, Asbestos Definitions and Mineral Identification 3. Epidemiological/Toxicological Issues of NOA 4. Assessing Risk and the Effectiveness of Current Regulations Concerning NOA
