Mr. Richard F. Andree, CSP, PE, Ph.D.
Vice President
Director of Safety and Health
Lovell Safety Management Company, Inc.

New York, New York 10038-2607

Dear Mr. Andree:

This is in response to your letter of November 30, 1989, concerning the required retention of x-ray films under 29 CFR 1910.1020.

Standard 29 CFR 1910.1020 does not require retention of x-rays done for fractures or other reasons unassociated with exposure to toxic substances or harmful physical agents.

I appreciate the opportunity to clarify this matter for you.

Sincerely,



G.F. Scannell
Assistant Secretary
