September 5, 1989
Dr. William H. McBeath Dear Dr. McBeath: This is in response to your letter of August 9, to Secretary of Labor Elizabeth H. Dole, in which you requested that OSHA reconsider its interpretation of the scope of coverage provisions of the Field Sanitation Standard (29 CFR 1928.110). OSHA has reviewed the basis of its interpretations of these provisions and finds that its earlier position was in error. For this reason, a new interpretation of the scope of coverage has been issued to Regional Administrators. A copy of the memorandum explaining the policy is enclosed for your information. Companies which received the erroneous interpretation will be notified. We share your commitment to safe and healthful working conditions for all workers, and we appreciate your efforts to bring this problem to our attention. If we may be of further assistance, please let me know.
Sincerely,
|
