Occupational Safety and Health Standards - Excavations; Delay of final rule effective date

Abstract:
OSHA's final rule for Excavations, published on October 31, 1989 (54
FR 45894), was originally scheduled to become effective on January
2, 1990. OSHA is hereby further delaying the effective date of that
final rule to provide additional time for employers to come into
compliance with the final rule. The final rule will become effective
on March 5, 1990. For information contact James Foster (202)523-8148.
