Hazardous Waste Labels |
OSHA just announced a request for information seeking public
comment on potential revisions to its Process Safety Management standard
and related standards, as well as other policy options to prevent major
chemical incidents.
The RFI is in response to executive order 13650,
which seeks to improve chemical facility safety and security, issued in
the wake of the April 2013 West, Texas, tragedy that killed 15 in an
ammonium nitrate explosion.
OSHA is asking for comments on these standards:
OSHA also welcomes comments on potential changes to PSM enforcement policies and asks for information and data on rulemaking and
policy options, and the workplace hazards they address.
After the RFI is published in the Federal
Register, the public will have 90 days to submit written comments. Once
the RFI is published, the public can
submit comments at www.regulations.gov. Comments can also be submitted by mail or FAX.
