Title: Amendments to Respirator Certification Fees 
Abstract: NIOSH approves respirators used in a variety of industrial settings; regulations governing approval are codified in 42 CFR part 84. The fees charged to respirator manufacturers for approval of their products have not changed since 1972; the current approval fees cover less than 10 percent of the costs of generating certificates. Updating these fees will allow NIOSH's respirator certification program to recover the costs associated with the approval process.
