The Asbestos in Shipyards Standard; Extension of the Office of Management and Budget's Approval of Information Collection (Paperwork) Requirements

Resumen

OSHA solicits public comment concerning its request for an extension of the information collection requirements contained in the Asbestos in Shipyards Standard (29 CFR 1915.1001). This Standard regulates occupational exposure to Asbestos, thereby preventing serious illness (e.g., asbestosis, an emphysema-like condition, mesothelioma, and gastrointestinal cancer) among shipyard employees.
