to the following conditions: 1)Firms may develop and use substitute
forms provided that the information content of these forms is not
less than that required for the OSHA Form 20. OSHA may not place

onto this form. 2) DOL/OSHA has indicated that the requiremen for
the OSHA Form 20 will be replaced in May 1986 by a requirement
identical to the safety sheet requirement of the OSHA Hazard
Communication rule. To avoid redundancy in the interim, DOL is to
publish a Federal Register notice indicating that safety sheets
conforming to the requirements of the Hazard Communication rule are
deemed to be in compliance with the OSHA Form 20 requirements and
that firms supplying such safety sheets need not seek specific
approval from OSHA. 3) The Federal Register notice required to be
published under condition 2 will also inform the public about the
requirements of condition 1.
