Standard Number: 1910.1029
MEMORANDUM FOR: DAVID H. RHONE
Regional Administrator
FROM: ROGER A. CLARK Acting Director Field Coordination
SUBJECT: Preheat as Regulated Area in Coke Oven Batteries
The purpose of this memorandum is to clarify the boundaries of the regulated areas as required in 29 CFR 1910.1029, coke oven emissions, with respect to preheat areas in dry charged and pipeline charged batteries. We understand the Pittsburgh Area Office needs this information quickly.
The preheat area of a coke oven battery that is either pipeline charged or dry charged is considered as regulated area. The preheat areas are always located in close proximity to the coke oven batteries and are generally considered as part of the coke plant. For your information, OSHA has cited contractors at the Inland Steel plant, East Chicago, Indiana for 1910.1029 violations in the preheat area.
If you have any questions, please call John Martonik on FTS: 523-8111.
