Title: ●Open Fires in Marine Terminals 
Abstract:

This proposed rule intends to remove the Open Fires in Marine Terminals Standard, 29 CFR 1917.21 (Open Fires Standard), from the Code of Federal Regulations because that standard is no longer necessary to protect employees working in marine terminals from occupational safety and health hazards.  This is a deregulatory action per Executive Order 14192, Unleashing Prosperity Through Deregulation (90 FR 9065, Feb. 6, 2025).
