http://www.osha.gov/OshDoc/Directive_pdf/CPL_02-02-073.pdf
This OSHA instruction revises CPL 02-02-059, issued April 24, 1998. This instruction updates enforcement procedures for compliance officers who need to conduct inspections of emergencyresponse operations. It defines additional terms and expands on training requirements for emergency responders and other groups such as skilled support personnel. New guidance is provided on how HAZWOPER may apply to unique events such as terrorist attacks and addresses OSHAs role under the National Response Plan. This instruction will assist other Federal, State, and local personnel who have responsibilities under incident command systems and will assist in emergency response operations.
