63. Beryllium Timeline--The 1950's
1958 Brush continues its cooperation in studies relating to beryllium by participatingin a Results of the study are published in 1959 by the us Department of
http://www.befacts.com/timeline/fifties.html
The 2 microgram workplace standard is reviewed annually by an AEC-appointed medical and scientific committee composed of leading beryllium authorities. After several years of review, the AEC adopts the original levels on a continuing basis.
On the medical front, the Beryllium Case Registry (BCR) establishes the criteria for determining whether an individual has CBD and new theories begin to develop regarding whether the chronic form of the disease has an immunological component or results from the traditional dose-response relationship. It will be decades (until the 1980s) before the medical-scientific community reaches consensus about this.
The Luckey facility begins operation pursuant to the contract with the government.
Brush's "Air Sampling Program" for use at its Luckey, Ohio, plant includes eight-hour average exposure limits (for "special locations") and 72-hour average exposure limits (for other locations), with exposures measured using general area air sampling and breathing zone air sampling. Measurement of any sample exceeding 2 micrograms triggers "an immediate investigation" and use of "corrective measures to bring the sample below the target level." If sample results exceeding 2 micrograms persist for 15 days, the operation is shut down immediately "pending the installation of corrective procedures." A daily weighted average concentration exceeding 5 micrograms also triggers immediate shutdown.

http://www.befacts.com/timeline/nineties.html
New medical developments, especially the Blood Lymphocyte Proliferation Test (BLPT), have led to new definitions of CBD, including conditions where workers do not show signs or symptoms or illness, X-ray changes or any functional evidence of disease. Widespread blood testing by Brush and others, together with these relaxed diagnostic criteria, lead to an increased number of CBD cases in the 1990s. With the increased cases come new questions about whether CBD, as it has come to be defined, may be caused by exposures below the OSHA standard.
The Beryllium Industry Scientific Advisory Committee (BISAC) is established and begins coordinating and standardizing a program of immunological testing for all beryllium industry workers.
Brush begins blood testing of employees at Tucson using a newer technique, that being the BLPT. Brush initiates parallel, independent epidemiological studies through Dr. Kathleen Kreiss at the National Jewish Medical and Research Center.
The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, Public Health Service, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services issues a Toxicological Profile for Beryllium. The Profile states that "[a]lthough the soluble and insoluble forms of beryllium can cause chronic beryllium disease, workers breathing air containing beryllium at less than 0.002 milligrams in a cubic meter [the 2 microgram standard] (a level that government rules permit in a workplace) will probably not develop lung damage as a result of exposure."

    http://www.tysonfoodsinc.com/corporate/history/default.asp
    More than 60 years have passed since John Tyson drove his battered truck to Chicago to deliver a load of 500 Arkansas chickens. Tyson heard that chickens were bringing a better price in northern markets, so he cashed in his savings and borrowed the rest of the money he needed to finance the trip. He sold the birds for a profit of $235, $220 of which he wired home to pay on his debts and buy another load of birds. Out of that trip sprung the foundations of a company that would revolutionize the poultry industry. We invite you to walk through time and discover how the world's largest poultry company rose out of the soil of Northwest Arkansas. Eras
    Time Line John Tyson moved to Springdale, Arkansas, with his wife and one-year-old son, Don. He made a living hauling hay, fruit, and chickens for local growers. Inching northward, John Tyson made frequent poultry deliveries to Kansas City and St. Louis. Because the company already had the chicks, the grain to feed them, and a trucking company to haul the grown chickens to market, the Tyson organization invested in a grower farm. By 1952, 19 other companies in the Springdale area had jumped on the poultry bandwagon. Don Tyson left his agricultural studies at the University of Arkansas to join his father’s battle against a vulnerable and fluctuating market. When their rollercoaster ride hit a low, with the market and poultry diseases taking their toll, the Swanson Company offered to buy the Tyson business. But now, as in the past, adversity fueled John’s determination. With his son at his side, the "Tyson Team" pushed forward.
