OSHA is developing a standard to address the fire and explosion hazards of combustible dust. On June 28, 2010, at 1 p.m. (EDT), OSHA will hold it’s first combustible dust web chat. The purpose of this chat is to gather helpful information that OSHA can later use to help in the development of this standard. OSHA invites all interested parties to participate by registering their name, affiliation, and e-mail address. This will allow OSHA to respond to comments or seek clarification if the need arises.
Those who wish to participate can access the Web Chat at http://www.dol.gov/dol/chat.htm. If you are unable to login during the scheduled chat the Web Blog will remain accessible for additional feedback through July 7, 2010.
