MOSH Standards Notice 12-5 - Maryland Occupational Safety and Health (MOSH) |

Background In 2007 the Commissioner of Labor and Industry adopted the 'as amended' provision for MOSH standards notices. This allows MOSH to adopt revisions of OSHA/MOSH standards without needing the MOSH Advisory Board's consensus. This provision takes affect only if the revision deals with a previous standard already amended by MOSH and the language reads 'as amended'. On October 14, 2010, the Commissioner of Labor and Industry adopted "Acetylene - Direct Final Rule for General Industry" and added the 'as amended' provision. That being the case this memo is adopted as is (please reference the above listed OSHA memo for further details). Action MOSH Compliance and Consultation Supervisors shall ensure that all Compliance Officers are trained on the contents of this notice. cc: J. Ronald DeJuliis, Commissioner, Division of Labor and Industry |
