Miscellaneous Minor and Technical Amendments
AGENCY: Occupational Safety and Health Administration, Department of
Labor.
ACTION: Final rule; corrections and technical amendments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has
initiated a comprehensive line-by-line review of its standards
published in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) as directed by
President Clinton in March 1995. From this review, OSHA has identified
a number of sections and provisions of these standards for correction
and technical amendment. In this document, OSHA is making corrections,
deleting redundant provisions, and clarifying and reorganizing various
other provisions throughout OSHA's standards in the CFR. This document
does not change the substantive requirements of the standards.
EFFECTIVE DATE: May 6, 1996. The incorporations by reference of the
consensus standards listed in Secs. 1926.1002, 1926.1003, and 1928.51
are approved by the Director of the Federal Register as of May 6, 1996.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
In March 1995, the President directed Federal agencies to undertake
a line-by-line review of their regulations to determine where they
could be simplified or clarified. OSHA initiated such a review, and as
a result completed a document on May 31, 1995, entitled ``OSHA's
Regulatory Reform Initiatives.'' That document detailed the Agency's
findings as to which regulations could be deleted or revised to improve
compliance by employers and, consequently, provide enhanced
occupational safety and health protection to employees. This regulatory
improvement process involves revocation of outdated and obsolete
provisions, consolidation of repetitious provisions, and clarification
of confusing language.
The Agency is beginning this process with this document, by
addressing minor clarifications, corrections, and technical amendments
to OSHA standards. These do not require notice and comment. A detailed
discussion of these actions is provided below under ``Summary and
Explanation.'' In addition, the Agency plans to undertake several more
regulatory reform initiatives. OSHA is developing a proposal to make
substantive changes in various standards to diminish regulatory burdens
without reducing worker protections. OSHA also intends to take actions
to reduce paperwork and shorten and simplify its standards that are
codified in the CFR.
II. Summary and Explanation
A. Merging the 13 Carcinogen Standards Into Single Standards in 29 CFR
Parts 1910, 1915, and 1926
Thirteen similar standards for carcinogenic chemicals are codified
in subpart Z of OSHA's General Industry standards at 29 CFR 1910.1003
through 1016. The regulatory requirements for each are similar, with
the few differences based principally on the corrosiveness of the
substance, or its physical state at room temperature. Because of their
similarities, OSHA has decided to combine the 13 standards into a
single rule. Accordingly, OSHA is issuing a technical amendment
combining the 13 carcinogenic chemical standards into a single
consolidated standard at Sec. 1910.1003, entitled ``13 Carcinogens.''
No substantive revisions have been made to any provisions of the 13
carcinogenic chemical standards. Where requirements vary for different
chemicals, paragraphs are being added to Sec. 1910.1003 to include
these differing requirements.
The standards for the 13 carcinogenic chemicals found under 29 CFR
Parts 1915 and 1926 are being consolidated in the same manner. They
will be consolidated under single standards for each of these parts,
Secs. 1915.1003 and 1926.1103, titled ``13 Carcinogens.''
B. Consensus Standards and Organizations and Incorporation by Reference
Statements in 29 CFR Part 1910
Among the provisions being removed from the CFR are the following
12 General Industry sections that list the addresses of consensus
organizations: 29 CFR 1910.40, 1910.70, 1910.100, 1910.116, 1910.140,
1910.148, 1910.171, 1910.190, 1910.222, 1910.247, 1910.257, and
1910.275. These addresses are being consolidated into Sec. 1910.6,
titled ``Incorporation by Reference.'' The addresses have been updated
and may be used to obtain copies of the original consensus standards
that were incorporated into these sections. Consistent with this
revision, Sec. 1910.6 is being amended to include a list of the
consensus standards incorporated by reference into the CFR, as well as
references to the OSHA-related CFR sections developed from each of
these incorporated consensus standards.
Copies of the original consensus standards are also available from
OSHA area offices.
The following 14 sections of 29 CFR part 1910 contain only
identifying information regarding the consensus standards which were
originally used as sources for OSHA standards: 29 CFR 1910.31, 1910.39,
1910.69, 1910.99, 1910.115, 1910.139, 1910.150, 1910.153, 1910.170,
1910.189, 1910.221, 1910.246, 1910.256, and 1910.274. Because OSHA has
revised and updated many of its standards over the past 25 years, the
references to the original sources for these standards are no longer
valid. Accordingly, OSHA is deleting these references. The
parenthetical note entitled ``Source'' at the bottom of
Sec. 1910.68(e)(3) is being removed as well.
In this document, OSHA is also consolidating all ``incorporation by
reference'' (IBR) statements into Sec. 1910.6. These statements are
currently scattered throughout part 1910. The paragraphs affected by
this change are: Sec. 1910.133(b) (1) and (2), 1910.135(b) (1) and (2),
1910.136(b) (1) and (2), and Sec. 1910.266 (d)(3)(iv), (e)(2)(i),
(f)(3) (ii) through (iv), (f)(4), and (f)(5)(i).
C. Effective Dates Codified Under 29 CFR Part 1910
Several OSHA standards published in the CFR provide information
regarding the date the standard was to become effective. In general,
effective dates are not included or retained as part of the CFR. In
addition, the effective dates published in the CFR under these
provisions have expired. OSHA therefore is revising or deleting the
effective date provisions of the following standards, as appropriate:
Secs. 1910.17, 1910.66, 1910.114, 1910.145, 1910.157, 1910.158,
1910.182, 1910.216, 1910.217, 1910.261, 1910.265, and 1910.272.
D. Editorial Corrections to 29 CFR part 1910
The following miscellaneous editorial corrections are being made to
29 CFR part 1910:
1. Because internal units within a CFR section are to be referred
to as
[[Page 9229]]
``paragraphs,'' the phrase ``subdivision (A) of this subdivision'' in
Sec. 1910.68(c)(7)(ii)(B) is being revised to read ``paragraph
(c)(7)(ii)(A) of this section,'' while the phrase ``subparagraph
(6)(ii) of this paragraph'' in Sec. 1910.94(c)(4)(iii) is being changed
to read ``paragraph (c)(6)(ii) of this section.''
2. In the first sentence of Sec. 1910.20(c)(13)(i), the word
``least'' is being changed to ``latest.''
3. In Sec. 1910.94, the term ``[Reserved]'' at the beginning of
paragraph (c)(5)(iii) is being removed, and the succeeding designation
letter ``(A)'' is being moved immediately to the right of the ``(iii)''
at the beginning of the paragraph.
4. The table titled ``OSHA Onsite Consultation Project Directory''
in Appendix G to Sec. 1910.95 is being deleted. Since this table was
first published, numerous revisions have occurred to the entries cited
in the directory, making the information in this table obsolete.
5. In two places (Appendix H to Sec. 1910.95 and Appendix D to
subpart L of 29 CFR part 1910), an out-of-date telephone number for
OSHA's Technical Data Center, ``523-9700,'' is being changed to the
current number, ``219-7500.''
6. In Sec. 1910.120, the comma that runs into the beginning of the
word ``uncontrolled'' near the middle of paragraph (a)(1)(i) is being
removed to improve clarity.
7. In paragraphs (d)(2), (d)(4), and (d)(6) of Sec. 1910.145, the
paragraph designation ``(i)'' is being removed because these paragraphs
have no subsequent designations.
8. In the listing for OSHA's Publications Office under Appendix B
to Sec. 1910.177, an out-of-date telephone number, ``523-9667,'' is
being changed to the current number ``219-4667.''
9. In table O-10 following Sec. 1910.217(f)(4), the fourth entry in
the first column that reads ``1\1/2\ to 5\1/2\'' is being changed to
read ``3\1/2\ to 5\1/2\.''
10. In Sec. 1910.217(g), the title ``Director of the Office of
Standards Development'' is being changed to read ``Director of the
Directorate of Safety Standards Programs.''
11. In Sec. 1910.440, the phrase ``Health, Education and Welfare''
in paragraphs (b)(1) and (b)(5)(ii) is being revised to read ``Health
and Human Services.''
E. Revisions to 29 CFR Part 1926 Standards Incorporated From 29 CFR
Part 1910
Minor corrections and technical amendments also are being made to
several 29 CFR part 1926 (Construction Industry) standards that were
incorporated from 29 CFR part 1910 (General Industry) in a previous
rulemaking notice (June 30, 1993, 58 FR 35076). This previous action
made no substantive changes to the incorporated standards, but the
publication of these standards introduced various typographical errors
and omissions. In addition, some changes were made to properly reflect
the legal history and their adoption under the relevant statutes.
F. Miscellaneous Technical Amendments to 29 CFR Part 1926
On April 20, 1982 (47 FR 16986), OSHA published a final rule that
consolidated standards addressing ship repair, shipbuilding, and
shipbreaking, located under 29 CFR parts 1915 through 1917, into 29 CFR
part 1915 (``Shipyard employment''). Paragraph (b) of Sec. 1926.30
(``Shipbuilding and ship repairing''), however, still refers to old
parts 1916 and 1917. These references are being corrected.
Several changes are being made to Sec. 1926.31 to provide current
addresses and cross-references.
G. Revisions to Standards Addressing Roll-Over Protection Structures
for Tractors Under 29 CFR Parts 1926 and 1928
Various provisions of OSHA standards that specify minimum test
procedures and performance requirements for manufacturers who design
and construct roll-over protective structures (ROPS) and overhead
protection attached to tractors used in construction work and
agricultural operations are being removed. OSHA is removing these
detailed specifications from the CFR because they are design criteria
generally not useful to employers. The Agency is replacing them with
references to the source consensus standards from which they were
developed. The references will be provided in footnotes to the relevant
provisions of the OSHA standards. The substantive requirements are
unchanged.
This rulemaking involves the following amendments:
1. Paragraphs (c) through (i), and (k) of Sec. 1926.1002 are
deleted and replaced with a reference to Society of Automotive
Engineers (SAE) consensus standard J334a in paragraph (a)(1) of
Sec. 1926.1002.
2. Paragraphs (c) through (g) of Sec. 1926.1003 are deleted and
replaced with a reference to SAE J167 in paragraph (a)(1) of
Sec. 1926.1003.
3. Sections 1928.52 and 1928.53 and Appendix B to subpart C of 29
CFR part 1928 are deleted and replaced by references to SAE J168 and
J334 and American Society of Agricultural Engineers consensus standards
306.3 and 336.1 in paragraph (b)(1) of Sec. 1928.51.
H. Revisions to the Cadmium Standard Under 29 CFR Part 1928
The cadmium standard for the Agriculture Industry, Sec. 1928.1027,
duplicates the cadmium standard of 29 CFR part 1910. The Agency has
determined that publishing the full text of the standard under part
1928 is unnecessary because the requirements of the standard can be
found in the General Industry cadmium standard (Sec. 1910.1027). A
cross-reference from the agriculture industry standards to
Sec. 1910.1027 is being inserted in place of the full text of the
standard. OSHA also is adding paragraph (a)(6) to Sec. 1928.21
specifying that the cadmium standard under part 1910 is applicable to
the agriculture industry.
I. Agreements With and Grants to States
The primary purpose of 29 CFR part 1901 has been to interpret and
apply section 18(h) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970
(the Act). Since the State agreements that were permitted under section
18(h) have been obsolete since 1972, most of part 1901 is no longer
necessary. Therefore OSHA is revoking all of part 1901, with the
exception of the first sentence of Sec. 1901.2. That sentence
interprets the preemption language in section 18(a) of the Act and is
relied on by courts in preemption cases. That language is being moved
to become the fourth sentence in paragraph (a) of 29 CFR 1902.1.
Part 1950 of title 29 CFR interprets and applies section 23 (a) and
(b) of the Act, which authorizes the Secretary of Labor to make grants
to the States for certain development and planning purposes with regard
to occupational safety and health State plans. As the statutory
authority for making these grants to the States expired in 1973, it is
being revoked.
Part 1951 of title 29 CFR contains procedures for making grants to
the States to assist them in administering and enforcing programs for
occupational safety and health contained in State plans. Since
financial grant rules and regulations can be found in 29 CFR part 97
and in Office of Management and Budget Circular A-102, part 1951 is
redundant and is being revoked.
III. Exemption From Notice and Comment Procedures
OSHA has determined that this rulemaking is not subject to the
[[Page 9230]]
procedures for public notice-and-comment rulemaking specified under
section 4 of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) or sec.
6(b) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (29 U.S.C.
655(b)) because this rulemaking does not affect the substantive
requirements or coverage of the standards involved. This rulemaking
does not modify or revoke existing rights and obligations, and new
rights and obligations have not been established. Under this
rulemaking, the Agency is merely correcting or clarifying existing
regulatory requirements. OSHA therefore finds that public notice-and-
comment procedures are unnecessary within the meaning of 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(3)(B) and 29 CFR 1911.5.
IV. Clearance of Information Collection Requirement
On August 29, 1995, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
published a new 5 CFR part 1320 (60 FR 44978), implementing the
information collection provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (PRA 95) (Pub. L. 104-13, May 22, 1995). Part 1320, which became
effective on October 1, 1995, sets forth procedures for information
collection requirements. The Act changed the previous law in several
significant ways. Among other things, it redefined ``collection of
information'' to include third-party and public disclosures.
To be in compliance with PRA 95 by October 1995, the Department of
Labor published a document in the Federal Register seeking generic
clearances from OMB for a number of existing information collection
requests (60 FR 35228, July 6, 1995). This was necessary as third-party
disclosure paperwork burden hours were previously deleted from the
Information Collection Requests as adjustments resulting from the Dole,
Secretary of Labor et al. v. United Steelworkers of America, Opinion of
the Court 494 U.S. 26, 33 (1990) decision. The 13 carcinogen standards'
information collection requests were part of this overall generic
clearance.
On September 19, 1995, OMB approved the information collection
requirements contained in the 13 carcinogen standards until August 31,
1996. Each of the 13 carcinogen standards currently set out the OMB
approval number at the end of the corresponding CFR section. While this
final rule combines the 13 carcinogens under a single CFR section
(which appears in OSHA's standards as Secs. 1910.1003, 1915.1003, and
1926.1103), it does not affect or change the burden of those
requirements. The OMB numbers for the 13 carcinogens standards are
unchanged, and being are listed as a group at the end of the combined
carcinogens section.
The 13 separate information collection requests will be combined
into one information collection request when submitting the package to
OMB for approval later this year. This package will be submitted under
OMB number 1218-0085.

V. Authority
This document was prepared under the direction of Joseph A. Dear,
Assistant Secretary of Labor for Occupational Safety and Health, U.S.
Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C.
20210.
Signed at Washington, D.C., this 8th day of February, 1996.
Joseph A. Dear,
Assistant Secretary of Labor.
Accordingly, pursuant to sections 4, 6, and 8 of the Occupational
Safety and Health Act of 1970 (29 U.S.C. 653, 655, 657), sec. 107 of
the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (40 U.S.C. 333), and
Secretary of Labor's Order No. 1-90 (55 FR 9033), title 29 CFR chapter
XVII is amended as set forth below.
PART 1901--[REMOVED AND RESERVED]
1. Part 1901 is removed and reserved.
PART 1902--STATE PLANS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT AND ENFORCEMENT OF STATE
STANDARDS
1. The authority citation for part 1902 continues to read as
follows:
Authority: Secs. 8 and 18 of the Occupational Safety and Health
Act of 1970, 29 U.S.C. 657 and 667.
2. Paragraph (a) of Sec. 1902.1 is revised to read as follows:
Sec. 1902.1 Purpose and scope.
(a) This part applies the provisions of section 18 of the Williams-
Steiger Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (hereinafter
referred to as the Act) relating to State plans for the development and
enforcement of State occupational safety and health standards. The
provisions of the part set forth the procedures by which the Assistant
Secretary for Occupational Safety and Health (hereinafter referred to
as the Assistant Secretary) under a delegation of authority from the
Secretary of Labor (Secretary's Order No. 12-71, 36 FR 8754, May 12,
1971) will approve or reject State plans submitted to the Secretary. In
the Act, Congress declared it to be its purpose and policy ``* * * to
assure so far as possible every working man and woman in the Nation
safe and healthful working conditions and to preserve our human
resources'' by, among other actions and programs, ``* * * encouraging
the State to assume the fullest responsibility for the administration
and enforcement of their occupational safety and health laws. Section
18(a) of the Act is read as preventing any State agency or court from
asserting jurisdiction under State law over any occupational safety or
health issue with respect to which a Federal standard has been issued
under section 6 of the Act. However, section 18(b) provides that any
State that desires to assume responsibility for the development and
enforcement therein of occupational safety and health standards
relating to issues covered by corresponding standards promulgated under
section 6 of the Act shall submit a plan for doing so to the Assistant
Secretary.
