Approved
consistent with clarification in DOl memo of 8-31-01. The burden
reduction asserted by DOL is not approved. The OSHA standard in
question is very specific about size, visibility, and other
requirements and unless OSHA can demonstrate that these
requirements are otherwise met by employers (and thus there is no
need for the OSHA rule) the burden estimate will remain
unchanged
