EMERGENCY RULES

DEPARTMENT OF

LABOR AND INDUSTRIES

[Filed April 24, 1998, 11:25 a.m.]



Purpose: This emergency adoption amends the permissible exposure limits (PELs) for chromic acid and chromates, and mercury (aryl and inorganic) in WAC 296-62-07515 so that these PELs are identical to OSHA's rule (Code of Federal Regulations 1910.1000 Table Z-1 and Z-2) and provide appropriate protection of the health of workers where these chemicals are used.

Amended Section: WAC 296-62-07515 Control of chemical agents, the following state-initiated changes are being made to Table 1: Limits for Air Contaminants Permissible Exposure Limits (PEL).

Chromic acid and chromates (as CrO3) PEL is changed from 0.1 mg/m3 TWA (time weighed average) to 0.1 mg/m3 Ceiling limit making this PEL identical to OSHA's rule.

Mercury (aryl and inorganic) (as Hg) PEL changed from 0.1 mg/m3 TWA to 0.1 mg/m3 Ceiling limit making this PEL identical to OSHA's rule.

This emergency adoption was filed at the same time the permanent adoption of these changes in order to provide appropriate worker protection until the permanent adoption becomes effective on July 24, 1998.

Citation of Existing Rules Affected by this Order: Amending WAC 296-62-07515.

Statutory Authority for Adoption: RCW 49.17.010, [49.17].040, and [49.17].050.

Under RCW 34.05.350 the agency for good cause finds that immediate adoption, amendment, or repeal of a rule is necessary for the preservation of the public health, safety, or general welfare, and that observing the time requirements of notice and opportunity to comment upon adoption of a permanent rule would be contrary to the public interest.

Reasons for this Finding: Labor and Industries is adopting the emergency rule so that the permissible exposure limits for chromic acid and chromates, and mercury (aryl and inorganic) are identical to OSHA's rule (CRF 1910.1000 Table Z-1 and Z-2) and provide appropriate protection of the health and safety of workers where these chemicals are used.

Number of Sections Adopted in Order to Comply with Federal Statute: New 0, amended 0, repealed 0; Federal Rules or Standards: New 0, amended 1, repealed 0; or Recently Enacted State Statutes: New 0, amended 0, repealed 0.

Notes: a/ Parts of vapor or gas per million parts of contaminated air by volume at 25'C and 760 mm. Hg. pressure (torr.).

b/ Milligrams of substance per cubic meter of air. When a numerical entry for a substance is in the mg/m3 column and not in the ppm column, then the number in the mg/m3 column is exact. When numerical entries for a substance are in both the ppm and mg/m3 columns, then the number in the ppm column is exact and the number in the mg/m3 column may be rounded off.

c/ Duration is for 15 minutes, unless otherwise noted.

d/ The final benzene standard in WAC 296-62-07523 applies to all occupational exposures to benzene except some sub-segments of industry where exposures are consistently under the action level (i.e., distribution and sale of fuels, sealed containers and pipelines, coke production, oil and gas drilling and production, natural gas processing, and the percentage exclusion for liquid mixtures).

e/ This 8-hour TWA applies to respirable dust as measured by a vertical elutriator cotton dust sampler or equivalent instrument. The time-weighted average applies to the cotton waste processing operations of waste recycling (sorting, blending, cleaning, and willowing) and garretting. See also WAC 296-62-14533 for cotton dust limits applicable to other sectors.
