OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND

HEALTH REVIEW COMMISSION

29 CFR Part 2200

Rules of Procedure

AGENCY: Occupational Safety and Health

Review Commission.

ACTION: Final rule; extension of sunset

provision.

SUMMARY: The Occupational Safety and

Health Review Commission has

determined that additional time is

necessary to properly evaluate the

efficacy of its pilot E–Z Trial program.

Accordingly, the Review Commission is

amending the ‘‘sunset’’ provisions of the

Commission’s ‘‘E–Z Trial’’ rules to

extend the pilot program an additional

four months.

EFFECTIVE DATE: March 28, 1997.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Earl R. Ohman, Jr., General Counsel,

(202) 606–5410.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August

14, 1995 the Occupational Safety and

Health Review Commission published

in the Federal Register (60 FR 41805)

new procedural rules for a pilot program

designed to simplify and accelerate

adjudication for cases that warrant a less

formal, less costly process. Designated

‘‘E–Z Trial,’’ the pilot program was to

run for one year, terminating on

September 30, 1996. A ‘‘sunset’’

provision was inserted into the rules to

end the pilot program on that date

unless extended by the Commission by

final rule published in the Federal

Register. 29 CFR 2200.201(b). On

September 27, 1996 the Commission

extended the sunset provision until

March 31, 1997 to allow for evaluation

of the pilot program (61 FR 50711).

During this period, the Commission

held forums in which parties and

representatives of parties who had

participated in E–Z Trial proceedings

were given the opportunity to comment

on the E–Z Trial process. Their

comments, together with the

experiences of Commission judges, who

have conducted the E–Z Trials, are

currently being evaluated by the

Commission. To allow for a full

evaluation of these comments and

experiences, the Commission has
14822 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 60 / Friday, March 28, 1997 / Rules and Regulations

determined that the sunset provision

should be extended an additional four

months, until July 31, 1997.

Accordingly, the Commission is revising

§ 2200.201(b) to extend the pilot

program through July 31, 1997.

rule is extended by the Commission by

publication of a final rule in the Federal

Register. After July 31, 1997, a case will
