Abstract:
Advance notice of proposed rulemaking for Methylenedianiline 4,4-
MDA.

Abstract:
Request for information and notice of public information gathering
meeting. Comments must be received by March 1, 1985. Public meeting
scheduled for February 13, 1985 in Washington, D.C.

Abstract:
Advance notice of proposed rulemaking: occupational exposure to
formaldehyde, 1910.1000, Table Z-2. Comments and information
relevant to the reduction of formaldehyde exposure are requested by
August 15, 1985.

Abstract:
This notice summarizes the information contained in EPA's report on
occupational exposure to 1,3-Butadiene and invites interested
parties to submit comments regarding EPA's report and actions
required by OSHA, including OSHA's response to EPA, which must be
made by April 8, 1986. Comments should be submitted by January 27,
1986.

Abstract:
Response to the EPA referral of 1,3-Butadiene (BD) to OSHA. It was
determined that BD poses risk to the occupationally exposed
population at the current OSHA permissible exposure limit (PEL) and
that the risk can be reduced or prevented through the promulgation
of a revised standard. Exposure to BD can be controlled by
instituting engineering controls, improving work practices or
requiring employees to use personal protective equipment. Potential
exposure can be effectively reduced through the reduction of the
current PEL.

Abstract:
Proposes to amend the occupational exposure to formaldehyde standard
(1910.1000, Table Z-2). The proposal contains provisions for
employee exposure monitoring, medical surveillance, recordkeeping,
regulated areas, emergency procedures, preferred methods to control
exposure, hazard communication, and selection and maintenance of
personal protective equipment. Written comments must be received by
March 10, 1986. Notice of intention to appear at the informal
rulemaking hearings must be received by March 10, 1986.

Abstract:
Announces a change in the starting date of public hearings and
changes in dates for submission of comments, notices of intention to
appear, and other documentary evidence on the proposed revision of
the standard for occupational exposure to formaldehyde. Written
comments must be postmarked by March 24, 1986. Notices of intention
to appear must be received by March 24, 1986. The informal
rulemaking hearing is scheduled to begin on May 5, 1986.

Abstract:
Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking; Occupational exposure to 1,3-
butadiene (BD). Announcement of initiation of action to reduce
worker exposure and acceptance of the EPA referral. Comments in
response to this Advance Notice should be submitted by December 30,
1986.

Abstract:
Advance notice of proposed rulemaking; occupational exposure to
methylene chloride (also known as methylene dichloride,
dichloromethane or DCM), 1910.1000, Table Z-2. The results of animal
studies indicate that the present permissible exposure limit (PEL)
for DCM may not provide exposed workers adequate protection against
potential cancer risks and other adverse health effects. This notice
summarizes the potential adverse health effects associated with
exposure to DCM.

Abstract:
Announcement of limited reopening of rulemaking record on
occupational exposure to formaldehyde to include new information
regarding epidemiologic studies of persons exposed to formaldehyde,
additional data on employee exposure to formaldehyde in the foundry
industry and other feasibility-related issues. Written comments on
the new submissions must be postmarked by January 12, 1987.
