What types of hazardous materials are covered?
Question: Are these scenarios covered by the Hazardous Materials Safety OSHA regulations?
Scenario 1: Consider a company that transports Liquified Petroleum Gases (LPGs) in the marine transportation market. This company uses specific transportation vessels dedicated to carrying refrigerated LPGs to transport the materials.
Scenario 2: A new employee just started as a general laborer at a metal and mineral manufacturing company. Job responsibilities include using rope to lift and prepare material for the pickling tanks, torching dry materials before dry dipping, and other specialized galvanization tasks.
Scenario 3: A new Energy Service Company has just been established in West Virginia that mostly deals with acetylene and hydrogen. All employees are trained to handle, use, and store these compressed gases, as well as to identify and manage safety threats.
