Breaking down OSHA's new Crystalline Silica Rulemaking
On August 23, 2013, OSHA released its proposed silica rule -- cutting the exposure limit formula in half -- and a 90-day comment period has been established. We encourage members of the natural stone industry -- particularly those who quarry or process stone -- to review this rule. To read about the rule, visit https://www.osha.gov/silica/. The "Public Participation" tab allows for commentary on the proposed rule.
