{"abstract":"With this final rule, OSHA is extending the compliance date for certain ancillary requirements of the general industry beryllium standard to December 12, 2018. This standard protects workers from the hazards of beryllium exposure. OSHA has determined that this final rule will maintain essential safety and health protections for workers while OSHA prepares a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) to clarify specific provisions of the beryllium standard in accordance with a settlement agreement entered into with stakeholders. The December 12, 2018, compliance date affects only certain ancillary provisions, i.e., methods of compliance, beryllium work areas, regulated areas, personal protective clothing and equipment, hygiene areas and practices, housekeeping, communication of hazards, and recordkeeping.","action":"Final rule.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF LABOR","name":"Labor Department","id":271,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/labor-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/271","parent_id":null,"slug":"labor-department"},{"raw_name":"Occupational Safety and Health Administration","name":"Occupational Safety and Health Administration","id":386,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/occupational-safety-and-health-administration","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/386","parent_id":271,"slug":"occupational-safety-and-health-administration"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2018/08/09/2018-17106.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":1910,"title":29}],"citation":"83 FR 39351","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"This rule is effective August 9, 2018.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["Docket ID OSHA-H005C-2006-0870"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"2018-17106","effective_on":"2018-08-09","end_page":39360,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"explanation":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2018/08/09/2018-17106.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2018/08/09/2018-17106/limited-extension-of-select-compliance-dates-for-occupational-exposure-to-beryllium-in-general","images":{"ER09AU18.003":{"large":"https://img.federalregister.gov/ER09AU18.003/ER09AU18.003_large.png","original_size":"https://img.federalregister.gov/ER09AU18.003/ER09AU18.003_original_size.png"}},"images_metadata":{"ER09AU18.003":{"large":{"identifier":"ER09AU18.003","content_type":"image/png","size":120412,"width":420,"sha":"7924f59bb1133c0cd8f86ac365386b31","url":"https://img.federalregister.gov/ER09AU18.003/ER09AU18.003_large.png","height":1502},"original_size":{"identifier":"ER09AU18.003","content_type":"image/png","size":335420,"width":1490,"sha":"a7b09922ba4fd242264d05666accee74","url":"https://img.federalregister.gov/ER09AU18.003/ER09AU18.003_original_size.png","height":5333}}},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/2018-17106?publication_date=2018-08-09","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2018-08-09/2018-17106/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":10,"page_views":{"count":1635,"last_updated":"2026-04-04 18:15:03 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2018-08-09/pdf/2018-17106.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2018-17106.pdf?1533732333","publication_date":"2018-08-09","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2018/08/09/2018-17106.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{"1218-AD19":null},"regulation_id_numbers":["1218-AD19"],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"supporting_documents":[{"title":"Limited Extension of Select Compliance Dates for Occupational Exposure to Beryllium in General Industry","document_id":"OSHA-H005C-2006-0870-2158"},{"title":"Supporting Exhibit 50-2-3-15; SECTOR 15.
