DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Occupational Safety and Health Administration


National Advisory Committee on Occupational Safety and Health; 
Notice of Meeting

    Notice is hereby given of the date and location of the next meeting 
of the National Advisory Committee on Occupational Safety and Health 
(NACOSH), established under section 7(a) of the Occupational Safety and 
Health Act of 1970 (29 U.S.C. 656) to advise the Secretary of Labor and 
the Secretary of Health and Human Services on matters relating to the 
administration of the Act. NACOSH will hold a meeting on September 13-
14, 2000, in Room N 3437 A-C of the Department of Labor Building 
located at 200 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC. The meeting is 
open to the public and will begin at 9 a.m. lasting until approximately 
4 p.m. each day.
    At its last meeting, June 6, the committee decided to undertake a 
review of various aspects of training in relation to occupational 
safety and health. Subjects on the agenda for this meeting will 
include, in addition to overviews of current activities of the 
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the National 
Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH): the training of 
compliance safety and health officers, a description of OSHA's Training 
Institute and OSHA's training grant program, and a report from NIOSH on 
the status of its training activities and its Education Resource 
Centers (ERCs). There will also be a report on an October 1999 Training 
Conference, a discussion of NIOSH training research activities and a 
report from OSHA's task force on outreach activities.
    Written data, views or comments for consideration by the committee 
may be submitted, preferably with 20 copies, to Joanne Goodell at the 
address provided below. Any such submissions received prior to the 
meeting will be provided to the members of the Committee and will be 
included in the record of the meeting. Because of the need to cover a 
wide variety of subjects in a short period of time, there is usually 
insufficient time on the agenda for members of the public to address 
the committee orally. However, any such requests will be considered by 
the Chair who will determine whether or not time permits. Any request 
to make an oral presentation should state the amount of time desired, 
the capacity in which the person would appear, and a brief outline of 
the content of the presentation. Individuals with disabilities who need 
special accommodations should contact Veneta Chatmon (phone: 202-693-
1912; FAX: 202-693-1634) one week before the meeting.
    An official record of the meeting will be available for public 
inspection in the OSHA Technical Data Center (TDC) located in Room 
N2625 of the Department of Labor Building (202-693-2350). For 
additional information contact: Joanne Goodell, Occupational Safety and 
Health Administration (OSHA); Room N-3641, 200 Constitution Avenue NW, 
Washington, DC 20210, (phone: 202-693-2400; FAX: 202-693-1641; e-mail 
[email protected]); or check the National Advisory Committee on
