DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Occupational Safety and Health Administration


National Advisory Committee on Occupational Safety and Health; 
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 June 6, 2000, 
in Room N 5437 A-D of the Department of Labor Building

[[Page 31195]]

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 p.m. However, if work is completed earlier on the draft 
report the committee will be working on, the meeting may end sooner.
    During this November 1998 meeting, NACOSH decided that one of its 
areas of activity over the next two years would be to study OSHA's 
standards development process. The Committee has now completed its 
study after holding panel discussions during the last four meetings 
involving internal staff and members of the public who were involved 
with the OSHA standards setting process. This included people who had 
been involved with the development of the methylene chloride standard; 
those who had served on two types of advisory committees; 
representatives of consensus standards setting organizations and other 
professional associations; and representatives of other Federal 
regulatory agencies. During its June 6 meeting, the committee will be 
going over the final draft report and recommendations in full detail. 
It is difficult to estimate how long this will take.
    The only other agenda item will be an overview of current 
activities of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 
and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) 
which will be the first agenda item.
    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 usually 
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 Veneta Chatmon (phone: 202-693-
1912; FAX: 202-693-1634) 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 (202-693-2350). For 
additional information contact: Joanne Goodell, Occupational Safety and 
Health Administration (OSHA); Room N-3641, 200 Constitution Avenue NW., 
Washington, DC 20210 (phone: 202-693-2400; FAX: 202-693-1641; e-mail:

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 10th day of May 2000.
Charles N. Jeffress,
Assistant Secretary of Labor for Occupational Safety and Health.
