Notice of Meeting

    Notice is hereby given of the date and location of the next meeting 
of the National Advisory Committee on Occupational Safety and Health 
(NACOSH), established under section 7(a) of the Occupational Safety and 
Health Act of 1970 (29 U.S.C. 656) to advise the Secretary of Labor and 
the Secretary of Health and Human Services on matters relating to the 
administration of the Act. NACOSH will hold a meeting on December 9, 
1997, in Room N3437 A-D of the Department of Labor Building located at 
200 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC. The meeting is open to the 
public and will begin at 9:00 a.m. lasting until approximately 4:30 
p.m.
    Agenda items will include: a brief overview of current activities 
in the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the 
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH); a 
dialogue with OSHA's new Assistant Secretary, Charles N. Jeffress; 
regulatory and legislative updates; updates on OSHA's 11(c) and 
cooperative compliance programs, and NIOSH's National Occupational 
Research Agenda (NORA); as well as reports from NACOSH's workgroups.
    Written data, views or comments for consideration by the committee 
may be submitted, preferably with 20 copies, to Joanne Goodell at the 
address provided below. Any such submissions received prior to the 
meeting will be provided to the members of the Committee and will be 
included in the record of the meeting. Because of the need to cover a 
wide variety of subjects in a short period of time, there is often 
insufficient time on the agenda for members of the public to address 
the committee orally. However, any such requests will be considered by 
the Chair who will determine whether or not time permits. Any request 
to make an oral presentation should state the amount of time desired, 
the capacity in which the person would appear, and a brief outline of 
the content of the presentation. Individuals with disabilities who need 
special accommodations should contact Theresa Berry (phone: 202-219-
8615, extension 106; FAX: [phone]) one week before the meeting.
    An official record of the meeting will be available for public 
inspection in the OSHA Technical Data Center (TDC) located in Room 
N2625 of the Department of Labor Building (202-219-7500). For 
additional information contact: Joanne Goodell, Directorate of Policy,
