The writer, Richard Humphreys, operates a cooperative owned country elevator in Pond Creek, Oklahoma, and argues that OSHA has not provided enough research to support this exposure level. He believes that compliance with this level would be technically infeasible and costly for grain facilities, ultimately impacting American farmers and food consumers. Humphreys urges OSHA to delete the proposed exposure limit.

The proposed standard includes requirements for dust control, emergency action plans, employee training, equipment maintenance, and means of egress. The standard aims to reduce deaths and injuries by more than 50 percent and save millions of dollars in property damage annually. Comments on the proposed standard are being accepted until March 9, 1984. Text
