I'm an electrical contractor and not why I received this comment form but would like to make a comment. 1. I believe that regulations for the most part are good as far as they do not overburden society. 2. Government has begun to make my job to difficult and costly. My customers can no longer afford my services because of requirments that are being placed on me. a)expensive permits for small jobs b)osha requirements for training c)dust permits and special courses for my employees d)specialty licenses and permits When those that make decisions for the people make too many rules it stops productivity. Almost everything we touch is not safe. Is another rule going to save us or keep us from reaching our goals?
