Standard
[Posted 02/07/2008]
The
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
extended the comment period for the Lookback Review
of the Methylene Chloride Standard. Methylene
chloride is used in metal degreasing and aircraft
paint removal, as well as in some plastics,
adhesives, and inks.
OSHA invites
suggestions from the public on how the Standard’s
requirements can be modified to reduce the burden on
employers while maintaining employee protection.
