Attached is a copy of a memorandum from Mr. Allemang regarding expenditures that will be required to comply with the OSHA regulations.
You will note that he is asking for a survey at each location which outlines what we must do in order to get in compliance, establish the priority list for corrections, and an engineering cost estimate to make these corrections.
. 1 want you to advise me who you have assigned this task to at your locations.
Since Mr. Allemang wants this survey in his office by October 1, I must have it in my office by September 15.

I know most of you are burdened now with many kinds of studies and analyses. I dislike adding another but it is necessary for vs to determine the expendi tures we face based on current OSHA regulations.
To do this, all locations will have to make surveys for compliance with standards, priority lists lor correction, and engineering cost estimates. V/e wr-nt these studies to be completed by October !, 1072. Items requiring major expenditures such, as extensive noise cor-'""I measures, which, are net considered immediately critical to realm, and safety, may be tentatively scheduled for correction in 1073 and 197-4.
In order to complete the above assignment on time, each location may choose to assign various portions of the standards to supervisors in accoxdance with their technical skills. For example, the electrical foreman rnay survey the operation for compliance with the National Electrical Code, the carpenter shop foreman may survey for compliance for codes pertaining to woodworking machinery, etc.
The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 197G refers to monitoring of work stations for toxic exposures, employee medical cxaminacionsj.rxjs.omc situn;:oT~s, controlling of expoflures_m ;nx;arxHro.;i_cJ\o_nucals..anQ otheia.;iealth hazards. However, s pe e i fi c'"procedures for enforcing these health provisions of the Act. Have not yet been issued, and until thej are, 1 suggest we not try to guess what controls will be required. The individual plant actions and revised cost estimates for compliance can be determined when these specific rules arc issued. Additionally, further updating of our action plans and allowing for additional costs will be necessary as more OSilA standards and safety requirements are issued.
If you have specific q*?stior:s ns to how to proceed with the above studies, you should con; act Mr. Burl if. Me Oar rah an. Corporate Manager, Safety and Workmen's Compensation.
