FIGURE 19 ALTERNATIVE STRATEGIES FOR ELIMINATION/CONTROL OF POTENTIAL CARCINOGENS Continue OSHA Category I potential carcinogen exposure control by design or process. Eliminate category 1 substances where substitutes are known when required by regulation or good business practice, a/ Wait for government rulemaking to eliminate or control OSHA Category I potential car cinogens. / Proposed Strategy: Proceed to eliminate Group A (known substitute without major redesign) asbestos, hexavalent chromium compounds and benzene by Job #1, 1985 where appropriate. Where elimination is not appropriate control exposure by design or process. Establish Group B (known substitute with major redesign) timetables for these three substances consistent with cycle plans and new plant construction or renovation plans. Initiate advanced engineering projects for these three Group C (substitute unknown, advanced engineering required) substances. a/ Current Car Engineering practice for asbestos (Dec. 19, 1979): Newly designed components should not contain asbestos. In documented cases pre cluding alternate materials, asbestos must be reduced to the lowest level and encap sulated or resin coated to avoid worker exposure to airborne fibers. oo o o O' wro - Ilf - May 27, 1980 * PRODUCED by ford
