             ORDER AMENDING OPINION

        It is hereby ORDERED that the Precedential Opinion

as follows:

__________________

    * Honorable Sandra Day O ’Connor, retired Associate
      Justice of the United States Supreme Court, sitting by
      designation.

                             3
        On page 41, at the end of the first partial paragraph,
insert the following sentence:

             In its brief, OSHA concedes that the
             number for aerospace painting in the final
             rule inc lude d c erta in una f fec te d
             operations, and that the correct number is
             approximately 4,000 workers.

       On page 41, in the second full paragraph, delete the
following sentence:

             HRG offers no explanation to justify its
             lower figure for aerospace painters, and
             does not explain why it did not include
             workers engaged in enclosed space
             welding.

                           BY THE COURT:

                           /s/ Marjorie O. Rendell
