Transcripts of Public Hearings
The Mine Safety
and Health Administration (MSHA) is holding public meetings to obtain
information that will help MSHA evaluate the following five issues: number
one, whether to lower our asbestos permissible exposure limit; two,
whether we should replace our existing fiber analysis method, referred to
as phase-contrast microscopy, with a more sensitive method, which is
transmission electron microscopy; number three, whether we should
implement safeguards to limit take-home exposure; number four, whether our
field sampling methods are adequate and how are sampling results are being
used; and number five, what is the likely benefit and cost impact of any
rulemaking action we would take on these five issues. These are the
transcripts of those meetings. |
