OSHA's final rules of June 20, 1986 (51 FR 22612), lowering the permissible exposure limit for asbestos, tremolite, anthophyllite and actinolite from 2 to 0.2 fibers per cubic centimeter of air over an 8-hour day, with separate standards for general industry and construction. OSHA stated that workers at the new limit still faced significant risk but that feasibility kept it from going lower. This copy is a LexisNexis printout of the full preamble.
