SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: ehiers on DSK2VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS I. Background Emergency response is one of the most hazardous occupations in America (see the National Fire Protection Association report ‘‘Firefighter Fatalities in the United States—2012’’ and the 2012 Federal Emergency Management Agency report ‘‘Firefighter Fatalities in the United States in 2012’’). Emergency responders include firefighters, emergency medical service personnel, hazardous material employees, and technical rescue specialists. Also, law enforcement officers usually are considered emergency responders because they often assist in emergency response incidents. OSHA notes, however, that there are no standards issued by the Agency that specifically address occupational hazards uniquely related to law enforcement activities. Many emergency responders have cross training in these specialties, and may serve in multiple roles depending upon the type of emergency incident involved. Skilled support employees are not emergency responders, but nonetheless have specialized training that can be important to the safe and successful resolution of an emergency incident. The Agency issued a Request for Information (RFI) (74 FR 51735, Sept. 11, 2007) that solicited comments from the public to evaluate what action, if any, the Agency should take to further address emergency response and preparedness. Recent events, such as the April 2013 tragedy in West, Texas, that killed several emergency responders, and an analysis of the information provided in response to the 2007 RFI, make it clear that emergency responder health and safety continues to be an area of ongoing concern. Accordingly, OSHA determined it would be beneficial to VerDate Mar<15>2010 14:53 Jun 03, 2014 Jkt 232001 hold a stakeholder meeting to gather additional information. OSHA plans to use the information received in response to the 2007 RFI and obtained at this stakeholder meeting when considering a proposed standard for emergency response and preparedness. II. Stakeholder Meeting OSHA will conduct the stakeholder meeting as a group discussion addressing views, concerns, and issues surrounding emergency response and preparedness. To facilitate as much group interaction as possible, OSHA is not permitting formal presentations. OSHA will focus the meeting on major issues such as scope and approach. OSHA will provide participants with additional information on the major issues for discussion prior to the meeting. III. Public Participation The meeting will accommodate about 20 participants. Members of the general public (if registered) may observe, but not participate in, the meeting if space permits. OSHA staff will be present to take part in the discussions. PEC Solutions, Inc. (PEC) is managing the logistics for the meeting. Accordingly, PEC will provide a facilitator and compile notes summarizing the discussion; these notes will list participants and their affiliations, but will not attribute specific comments to individual speakers. PEC also will make an audio recording of each session to ensure that the summary notes are accurate, but will not transcribe these recordings. OSHA will post the summary notes in the docket for this rulemaking, Docket No. OSHA 2007– 0073; the docket is available at https:// www.regulations.gov and OSHA’s Docket Office. The meeting will take place July 30, 2014, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., at the Frances Perkins Building, 200 Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC, 20210. Based on the number of interested participants, OSHA may hold a second meeting on July 31, 2014. To participate in the stakeholder meeting, or to be a nonparticipating observer, you must submit a request using one of the three methods specified above under ADDRESSES by the deadline specified under DATES. OSHA will select participants to ensure a fair representation of interests and diverse viewpoints, and will send you confirmation of your registration no later than one week prior to the meeting. OSHA will not accommodate walk-in attendees at the meeting.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    Emergency response is one of the most hazardous occupations in 
America (see the National Fire Protection Association report 
``Firefighter Fatalities in the United States--2012'' and the 2012 
Federal Emergency Management Agency report ``Firefighter Fatalities in 
the United States in 2012''). Emergency responders include 
firefighters, emergency medical service personnel, hazardous material 
employees, and technical rescue specialists. Also, law enforcement 
officers usually are considered emergency responders because they often 
assist in emergency response incidents. OSHA notes, however, that there 
are no standards issued by the Agency that specifically address 
occupational hazards uniquely related to law enforcement activities. 
Many emergency responders have cross training in these specialties, and 
may serve in multiple roles depending upon the type of emergency 
incident involved. Skilled support employees are not emergency 
responders, but nonetheless have specialized training that can be 
important to the safe and successful resolution of an emergency 
incident.
    The Agency issued a Request for Information (RFI) (74 FR 51735, 
Sept. 11, 2007) that solicited comments from the public to evaluate 
what action, if any, the Agency should take to further address 
emergency response and preparedness. Recent events, such as the April 
2013 tragedy in West, Texas, that killed several emergency responders, 
and an analysis of the information provided in response to the 2007 
RFI, make it clear that emergency responder health and safety continues 
to be an area of ongoing concern. Accordingly, OSHA determined it would 
be beneficial to hold a stakeholder meeting to gather additional 
information. OSHA plans to use the information received in response to 
the 2007 RFI and obtained at this stakeholder meeting when considering 
a proposed standard for emergency response and preparedness.
