![["The document is a strong opposition to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's proposal to establish a 4 milligram per cubic meter permissible exposure level for wheat, oat, and barley dust. The opposition is based on lack of scientific data supporting the proposed level, technical infeasibility for many grain facilities to comply, and significant costs associated with compliance. The document urges OSHA to delete the proposed exposure limit."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Glenn%20Lee%20English,%20Jr.%20Collection/CAC_CC_017_3_170_17_0000-Labor,%20Occupational%20Safety%20and%20Health%20Administration,%20Grain%20Elevators,%201987-1988/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_017_3_170_17_0009_thumbnail.jpg "Request for Extension of Public Comment Period on OSHA Air Contaminants Proposal")
![["Perryton Equity Exchange opposes OSHA's proposal to establish a 4 milligram per cubic meter exposure level for wheat, oat, and barley dust. They argue that there is insufficient scientific data to support this level, and it would be technically infeasible and costly for their grain facility to comply. They also criticize OSHA for not demonstrating significant risk associated with the exposure and not conducting a feasibility analysis. They urge OSHA to delete the proposed exposure limit."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Glenn%20Lee%20English,%20Jr.%20Collection/CAC_CC_017_3_170_17_0000-Labor,%20Occupational%20Safety%20and%20Health%20Administration,%20Grain%20Elevators,%201987-1988/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_017_3_170_17_0015_thumbnail.jpg "Protest Letter Against OSHA's Proposed Grain Dust Exposure Level")
![["The document is from Lew Meibergen, a small business owner, to Congressman Glenn English discussing the frustration of trying to understand and comply with OSHA's rules and regulations. Meibergen highlights the complexity and difficulty of interpreting the regulations and expresses concern about the burden they place on small business owners. He encloses a copy of the Federal Register from 1987 to illustrate his point."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Glenn%20Lee%20English,%20Jr.%20Collection/CAC_CC_017_3_170_15_0000-Labor,%20Occupational%20Safety%20and%20Health%20Administration,%201987-1991/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_017_3_170_15_0007_thumbnail.jpg "Appreciation for Congressional Support: A Letter from Ritchie Corporation")
