Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method is to insure a tailpiece is part of the clamp assembly as in Compressed Gas Association E-1--2000 Standard Connections for Regulator Outlets, Torches, and Fitted Hose for Welding and Cutting Equipment. Another feasible and acceptable abatement method is to include the stand as in years past, so that the lance does not rest at the hose connection when not held by employees. Abatement documentation (photographs, receipts, copies of programs, training certification, etc.) is required for this item.
