[Filed October 31, 2017, 11:13 a.m.]
Original Notice.
Preproposal statement of inquiry was filed as WSR 16-13-121.
Title of Rule and Other Identifying Information: Chapter 296-840 WAC, Respirable crystalline silica; WAC 296-841-20025 Permissible exposure limits (PELs) and 296-307-62625 Permissible exposure limits of air contaminants.
Hearing Location(s): On December 15, 2017, at 9:00 a.m., at the Department of Labor and Industries (L&I), 7273 Linderson Way S.W., Room S119, Tumwater, WA 98501.

Purpose of the Proposal and Its Anticipated Effects, Including Any Changes in Existing Rules: The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) estimates that an approximate number of two million construction workers are exposed to respirable crystalline silica in over six hundred thousand workplaces and two hundred ninety-five thosand workers in over seventy-five thousand general industry and maritime workplaces. Thus, federal OSHA requirements pertaining to respirable crystalline silica in both 29 C.F.R. 1926.1153 (Construction) and 29 C.F.R. 1910.1053 (General Industry/Maritime) went into effect June 23, 2016.
The purpose of this proposal is to add a new chapter 296-840 WAC, Respirable crystalline silica, to address and limit worker exposure to respirable crystalline silica in workplaces, with the intent of curbing lung cancer incidents, silicosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and kidney disease in Washington workers.
The division of occupational safety and health (DOSH) did not have a standard that specifically addressed respirable crystalline silica exposure in the workplace, thus we are combining OSHA's two rules into an entirely new chapter to ensure that Washington's OSHA's rules are "at-least-as-effective-as" those promulgated by OSHA. Furthermore, the following sections under WAC 296-841-20025 and 296-307-62625 will be updated to reference the respirable crystalline silica rule. The proposed changes include:
Amended Sections
WAC 296-841-20025 Permissible exposure limits (PELs) and 296-307-62625 Permissible exposure limits of air contaminants.
Update table to reflect current PEL requirements.

WAC 296-840-100 Scope and application.
Add this section to explain that this chapter covers occupational exposures to respirable crystalline silica.
This section also provides exemptions to this proposed rule.

WAC 296-840-120 Methods of compliance.
Add methods of compliance where tasks listed in Table 1 do not apply, including engineering and work practice controls, as well as abrasive blasting.
WAC 296-840-125 Respiratory protection.
Add this section that highlights requirements for respiratory protection.
WAC 296-840-130 Respiratory protection program.
Add respiratory protection program in accordance with chapter 296-842 WAC, Respirators.
Add respirator use in accordance with Table 1.
WAC 296-840-135 Housekeeping.
Add this section that addresses how a contaminated space can be cleaned.
WAC 296-840-140 Written exposure control plan.
Add requirements that apply to both general industry/maritime and construction industries.
Add a written plan with a description of tasks that involve exposure to silica, engineering control work practices and respiratory protection.
Add language that indicates employers should have written plan available to each employee.
Add language for construction that requires procedures used to restrict access to work areas.
Add requirement language relating to a competent person.
WAC 296-840-145 Medical surveillance.
Add this section that requires medical surveillance to be available. Medical surveillance includes an initial examination, periodic examinations, and where needed examinations by a specialist.
Add tuberculosis form to help ensure tuberculosis assessment is thorough.
WAC 296-840-150 Communication of respirable crystalline silica hazards to employees.
Add section that requires employers to comply with chapter 296-901 WAC, Globally harmonized system for hazard communication.
Add language that specifies what to include in posted signs.
Add language indicating that employees must understand health hazards associated with silica, tasks that could result in exposure, and measures to protect workers from exposure.
WAC 296-840-155 Recordkeeping.
Add this section indicating employers must maintain records of exposure and objective data that describes employee exposure, and medical surveillance methods.
WAC 296-840-160 Effective dates.
Add language indicating when this proposed rule becomes effective for construction and general/maritime industry.
WAC 296-840-165 Appendix AMethods of sample analysis.
Add this section that explains the process employers are required to use when analyzing air samples and quality control procedures for respirable crystalline silica.
Reasons Supporting Proposal: By law, L&I's DOSH is required to update our rules to be at-least-as-effective-as federal OSHA.
Statutory Authority for Adoption: RCW 49.17.010, 49.17.040, 49.17.050, 49.17.060.
Statute Being Implemented: Chapter 49.17 RCW.
Rule is necessary because of federal law, 29 C.F.R. 1910.1053 Subpart Z and 29 C.F.R. 1926 Subpart Z.
Name of Proponent: L&I, governmental.
Name of Agency Personnel Responsible for Drafting: Chris Miller, Tumwater, Washington, 360-902-5516; Implementation and Enforcement: Anne Soiza, Tumwater, Washington, 360-902-5090.
A school district fiscal impact statement is not required under RCW 28A.305.135.
A cost-benefit analysis is not required under RCW 34.05.328. A cost-benefit analysis is not required as this rule making is adopting or incorporating by reference, without material change, federal statutes or regulatory changes.
This rule proposal, or portions of the proposal, is exempt from requirements of the Regulatory Fairness Act because the proposal:
Is exempt under RCW 19.85.061 because this rule making is being adopted solely to conform and/or comply with federal statute or regulations. Citation of the specific federal statute or regulation and description of the consequences to the state if the rule is not adopted: 29 C.F.R. 1910.1053 Subpart Z and 29 C.F.R. 1926 Subpart Z. If L&I doesn't adopt the new regulations, we would not be as-effective-as federal OSHA.

AMENDATORY SECTION (Amending WSR 06-08-087, filed 4/4/06, effective 9/1/06)
WAC 296-307-62625 Permissible exposure limits of air contaminants.
IMPORTANT:
The following information applies to Table 3, Permissible Exposure Limits for Air Contaminants.
• Exposure needs to be determined from personal air samples taken in the breathing zone or from monitoring representative of the employee's breathing zone.
• Ppm refers to parts of vapor or gas per million parts of air by volume, at 25 degrees C and 760 mm Hg pressure.
• Mg/m3 refers to milligrams of substance per cubic meter of air.
• For a metal that is measured as the metal itself, only the CAS number for the metal is given. The CAS numbers for individual compounds of the metal are not provided. For more information about CAS registry numbers see the web site: http://www.cas.org.
• Time weighted averages (TWA8) represent the maximum allowed average exposure for any 8-hour time period. For work periods longer than 8 hours the TWA8 needs to be determined using the 8 continuous hours with the highest average concentration.
• Short-term exposure limits (STEL) represent maximum allowed average exposure for any fifteen-minute period, unless another time period is noted in Table 3.
• The ceiling represents the maximum allowed exposure for the shortest time period that can feasibly be measured.
• An "X" in the "skin" column indicates the substance can be absorbed through the skin, either by airborne or direct contact.
• Requirements for the use of gloves, coveralls, goggles, and other personal protective equipment can be found in WAC 296-307-100.
• The respirable fraction of particulate is measured by sampling with a size-selector having the following characteristics:
