Created by G.V. on November 08, 2014

Specifically, the same background information applies as used in the Petition from the American Coatings Association, et al, dated August 12, 2014 sent to Dr. David Michaels, Assistant Secretary of Labor for Occupational Safety and Health (OSHA-USDOL): http://www.freshlawblog.com/files/2014/09/petition_hcsimplementationdead....

This petition requests OSHA to modify the rule by using new language at 29 CFR §1910.1200(j)(2):
"(ii)After June 1, 2017, chemical manufacturers, importers, and distributors of formulated products shall not manufacture, import or distribute the formulated products unless the label and Safety Data Sheets have been modified to comply with paragraphs (f) and (g) of this section."
A new definition for "formulated products" was provided in the Pdf above. ThankYou
