On Monday, August 5, 2024, Rachel Conn, Valerie Butera, Andrea Chavez, and Beeta Lashkari presented a webinar covering a Process Safety Update: The Latest with OSHA’s PSM Standard, EPA’s RMP Rule, the Chemical Safety Board, and their California Counterparts.
After years of stagnation, we’ve finally seen movement on updating process safety regulations during the Biden administration. But the revamped PSM standard and RMP rules have yet to see the light of day. During this webinar, we discussed when we might expect final rules and how employers can prepare for the new burdens they will create. Cal/OSHA’s PSM standard and CalARP’s RMP rule resemble the federal rules but present their own unique set of compliance challenges. Also, we compared and contrasted the rules and talked about strategies for compliance.
Participants in this webinar learned about:
-
- The status of OSHA’s and EPA’s process safety rulemakings.
- The expected content of the new rules and how to prepare them.
- Other process safety-related developments at OSHA and EPA under the Biden Administration.
- Cal/OSHA’s PSM standard and CalARP’s RMP rule and strategies for navigating the challenges they present.
We are pleased to share these links to a copy of the slides and a recording of the webinar.
