Paragraph (c) Definitions

*   *   *

Machine.
In the final rule OSHA included a definition of the machines covered by the logging rule. The definition included material handling equipment that is operated off-road. OSHA was asked to clarify whether the definition of logging machine includes aircraft, such as helicopters. OSHA never intended that logging machines include airplanes or helicopters and is clarifying its intention by expressly excluding airplanes and helicopters from the definition of machines covered by the final rule.
