Title: Process Safety Management of Highly Hazardous Chemicals
Abstract: The notice will propose to make corrections and technical amendments to the final rule on Process Safety Management of Highly Hazardous Chemicals, published in the Federal Register on February 24, 1992, at 57 FR 6356. In addition, it will propose to modify the final rule by adding certain chemicals included in the Environmental Protection Agency's Risk Management Program but not in the OSHA final rule. OSHA has been requested to bring its chemical list into closer alignment with the Environmental Protection Agency's program. OSHA is also considering issuing an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to address issues related to reactive chemicals raised by the explosion of a chemical plant in Lodi, New Jersey in 1995.
