Heading: Opportunity to Participate

Text: Absolute argues for the first time on appeal that, because the COs failed to give Kamis the opportunity to participate in OSHA’s inspection, its citations should be dismissed. “No objection that has not been urged before the Commission shall be considered by the court, unless the failure or neglect to urge such objection shall be excused because of extraordinary circumstances.” 29 U.S.C. § 660(a). Absolute did not raise this issue in its post-hearing brief or in its petition for discretionary review to the Commission, and it has failed to argue that extraordinary circumstances prevented it from raising the issue. Therefore, we do not have jurisdiction over Absolute’s argument that OSHA should have given it an opportunity to participate in the inspection. 29 U.S.C. § 660(a); Nat'l Eng'g & Contracting Co. v. Herman, 181 F.3d 715, 720 (6th Cir. 1999). REVIEW DENIED. - 10 -
