Occupational Exposure to Beryllium
Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA), Department of
Labor.
ACTION: Final rule; OMB information
collection approval.
AGENCY:
This rule is a technical
amendment announcing that OMB has
SUMMARY:
approved the collection of information
contained in OSHA’s standards for
Occupational Exposure to Beryllium
and Beryllium Compounds in General
Industry, and revising OSHA’s
regulations to reflect that approval. The
OMB approval number is 1218–0267.
DATES: Effective March 7, 2018.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Charles McCormick, OSHA, Directorate
of Standards and Guidance, U.S.
Department of Labor; telephone (202)
693–2222.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OSHA
published a final rule on January 9,
2017, amending its existing standards
for the Occupational Exposure to
Beryllium and Beryllium Compounds.
OSHA determined that employees
exposed to beryllium at the previous
permissible exposure limits face a
significant risk of material impairment
to their health. The evidence in the
record for this rulemaking indicates that
workers exposed to beryllium are at
increased risk of developing chronic
beryllium disease and lung cancer. The
final rule establishes new permissible
exposure limits of 0.2 micrograms of
beryllium per cubic meters (mg/m3) of
air as an 8-hour time weighted average
and 2.0 mg/m3 as a short term exposure
limit determined over a sampling period
of 15 minutes. It also includes other
provisions to protect employees, such as
requirements for exposure assessment,
methods for controlling exposure,
respiratory protection, personal
protective clothing and equipment,
housekeeping, medical surveillance,
hazard communication, and
recordkeeping.
OSHA issued three separate standards
(one for general industry, one for
shipyards, and one for construction) in
order to tailor requirements to the
circumstances found in these sectors.
The effective date of those standards
was March 10, 2017.
9701
Consistent with the Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501–
3520), the Federal Register notice for
the Occupational Exposure to Beryllium
and Beryllium Compounds final rule
states that employers do not have to
comply with the collection of
information until OMB approves those
collections of information, and the
Department of Labor publishes a notice
in the Federal Register announcing this
approval and the control number
assigned by OMB to the final rule’s
collection of information. Under 5 CFR
1320.5(b), an agency may not conduct or
sponsor a collection of information
unless: (1) The collection of information
displays a current, valid OMB control
number, and (2) The Agency informs
members of the public who are required
to respond to the collection of
information that they are not required to
do so unless the agency displays a
currently valid OMB control number for
the collection of information.
The revision of these standards is a
technical amendment to increase public
awareness of OMB’s approval of the
collection of information. The Agency
notes that the public has already had the
opportunity to comment on the
collections of information, and OMB has
approved them. Opportunity for public
comment on this final rule is therefore
unnecessary.
The final Occupational Exposure to
Beryllium and Beryllium Compounds
standards impose new collections of
information for the purposes of the PRA.
The collections of information in the
rule are needed to assist employers in
identifying and controlling exposure to
beryllium and beryllium compounds in
the workplace, and to address adverse
health effects related to beryllium.
OSHA will also use records developed
in response to these standards to
determine compliance with OSHA
standards.

Occupational Exposure to Beryllium
AGENCY: Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA),
Department of Labor.
ACTION: Final rule; OMB information collection approval.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This rule is a technical amendment announcing that OMB has
approved the collection of information contained in OSHA's standards
for Occupational Exposure to Beryllium and Beryllium Compounds in
General Industry, and revising OSHA's regulations to reflect that
approval. The OMB approval number is 1218-0267.
DATES: Effective March 7, 2018.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Charles McCormick, OSHA, Directorate
of Standards and Guidance, U.S. Department of Labor; telephone (202)
693-2222.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OSHA published a final rule on January 9,
2017, amending its existing standards for the Occupational Exposure to
Beryllium and Beryllium Compounds. OSHA determined that employees
exposed to beryllium at the previous permissible exposure limits face a
significant risk of material impairment to their health. The evidence
in the record for this rulemaking indicates that workers exposed to
beryllium are at increased risk of developing chronic beryllium disease
and lung cancer. The final rule establishes new permissible exposure
limits of 0.2 micrograms of beryllium per cubic meters ([micro]g/m\3\)
of air as an 8-hour time weighted average and 2.0 [micro]g/m\3\ as a
short term exposure limit determined over a sampling period of 15
minutes. It also includes other provisions to protect employees, such
as requirements for exposure assessment, methods for controlling
exposure, respiratory protection, personal protective clothing and
equipment, housekeeping, medical surveillance, hazard communication,
and recordkeeping.
OSHA issued three separate standards (one for general industry, one
for shipyards, and one for construction) in order to tailor
requirements to the circumstances found in these sectors. The effective
date of those standards was March 10, 2017.
Consistent with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501-
3520), the Federal Register notice for the Occupational Exposure to
Beryllium and Beryllium Compounds final rule states that employers do
not have to comply with the collection of information until OMB
approves those collections of information, and the Department of Labor
publishes a notice in the Federal Register announcing this approval and
the control number assigned by OMB to the final rule's collection of
information. Under 5 CFR 1320.5(b), an agency may not conduct or
sponsor a collection of information unless: (1) The collection of
information displays a current, valid OMB control number, and (2) The
Agency informs members of the public who are required to respond to the
collection of information that they are not required to do so unless
the agency displays a currently valid OMB control number for the
collection of information.
The revision of these standards is a technical amendment to
increase public awareness of OMB's approval of the collection of
information. The Agency notes that the public has already had the
opportunity to comment on the collections of information, and OMB has
approved them. Opportunity for public comment on this final rule is
therefore unnecessary.
The final Occupational Exposure to Beryllium and Beryllium
Compounds standards impose new collections of information for the
purposes of the PRA. The collections of information in the rule are
needed to assist employers in identifying and controlling exposure to
beryllium and beryllium compounds in the workplace, and to address
adverse health effects related to beryllium. OSHA will also use records
developed in response to these standards to determine compliance with
OSHA standards.
