- Description:
- The document from Union Equity Co-Operative Exchange to Senator Don Nickles expresses opposition to OSHA proposals affecting grain elevator regulations. The company already has safety measures in place and believes the proposed regulations are unnecessary and costly. They outline their existing safety program, including safety meetings, inspections, training, emergency procedures, and smoking policies. The company also discusses the challenges and costs of complying with the proposed regulations, particularly regarding housekeeping and dust control. They argue that their current practices are sufficient to ensure the safety of their employees.
