Docket No. OSHA-S048-2006-0674

General and technical information: Mr. Robert Bell, Directorate of Standards and Guidance, Office of Engineering Safety, OSHA, Room N-3621, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20210; telephone (202) 693-2053; email bell.rb@dol.gov.
This notice corrects two typographical errors, one each in OSHA's standards on Vehicle-mounted elevating and rotating work platforms at 29 CFR 1910.67 (39 FR 23502 (6/27/1974))(Docket No. OSHA-2014-0013),[1] and Logging operations at 29 CFR 1910.266 (59 FR 51672 (10/12/1994))(Docket No. OSHA-S048-2006-0674). OSHA believes the standards, as published, may mislead stakeholders; therefore, with this notice, OSHA is correcting these typographical errors.
The first typographical error this notice corrects is the title of a national consensus standards organization referenced in § 1910.67(c)(5). Section 1910.67(c)(5) states that all welding done on vehicle-mounted elevating and rotating work platforms must conform to Automotive Welding Society Standards incorporated by reference in 29 CFR 1910.6. However, as § 1910.6(i) specifies, the correct title of the organization is the American Welding Society Standards. Accordingly, in § 1910.67(c)(5) OSHA replaces “Automotive” with “American.”
The second typographical error this notice corrects is a reference in the Logging operations standard to another OSHA standard. Specifically, § 1910.266(d)(1)(iv), which establishes personal-protective-equipment requirements when logging employees operate chain saws, states that the requirement does not apply to employees who operate chain saws from a vehicle-mounted elevating and rotating work platform that meets the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.68. However, 29 CFR 1910.67, not § 1910.68 (Manlifts), addresses vehicle-mounted elevating and rotating work platforms. Therefore, in § 1910.266(d)(1)(iv), OSHA is inserting § 1910.67 in place of § 1910.68.
Accordingly, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration is correcting 29 CFR part 1910 by making the following correcting amendments:
1. Revise the authority citation for subpart F to read as follows:
Start Printed Page 37190 Authority: 29 U.S.C. 653, 655, 657; Secretary of Labor's Order No. 12-71 (36 FR 8754), 8-76 (41 FR 25059), 9-83 (48 FR 35736), 1-90 (55 FR 9033), 5-2007 (72 FR 31159), or 1-2012 (77 FR 3912), as applicable; and 29 CFR part 1911.
2. In § 1910.67, revise paragraph (c)(5) to read as follows:
§ 1910.67
(5) “Welding standards.” All welding shall conform to the following American Welding Society (AWS) Standards which are incorporated by reference as specified in § 1910.6, as applicable:
3. Revise the authority citation for subpart R to read as follows:
Authority: 29 U.S.C. 653, 655, 657; Secretary of Labor's Order Nos. 12-71 (36 FR 8754), 8-76 (41 FR 25059), 9-83 (48 FR 35736), 1-90 (55 FR 9033), 6-96 (62 FR 111), 3-2000 (65 FR 50017), 5-2007 (72 FR 31160), 4-2010 (75 FR 55355), or 1-2012 (77 FR 3912), as applicable; and 29 CFR part 1911.
4. In § 1910.266, revise paragraph (d)(1)(iv) to read as follows:
Signed at Washington, DC, on: June 20, 2014.
1. OSHA adopted 29 CFR 1910.67 pursuant to Section (6)(a) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651, 655(a)), which allowed the Agency, during the first two years following the effective date of the OSH Act, to adopt as an occupational safety or health standard any national consensus standard or established Federal standard. In 1975, OSHA added new paragraph (c) to § 1910.67 (40 FR 13439 (3/26/1975)). In neither instance did OSHA have a docket number for the rulemaking. Therefore, for the purpose of publishing this notice, OSHA needed to establish a docket number for § 1910.67 (i.e., Docket No. OSHA-2014-0013).
