The Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity will hold a public hearing to receive public comments on proposed changes to the General Industry Safety and Health Standard Part 73. Fire Brigades rule set.
On July 31, 2020, MCL 408.1014r was added to the Michigan Occupational Safety and Health Act, 1974 PA 154, to require the Director of LEO to promulgate rules regarding a firefighter’s use of firefighting foam concentrates containing Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS). These new rules are included in the proposed changes.
Several of the current rules that reference older versions of NFPA standards have been updated to a newer version of the standards. These updated references and requirements can be viewed with other proposed amendments at the link provided below.
(By authority conferred on the director of the department of labor and economic opportunity by sections 14r, 16, and 21 of the Michigan occupational safety and health act, 1974 PA 154, MCL 408.1014r, 408.1016, and 408.1021, and Executive Reorganization Order Nos. 1996 2, 2003 1, 2008 4, 2011 4, and 2019-3, MCL 445.2001, 445.2011, 445.2025, 445.2030, and 125.1998).
The proposed rules will take effect immediately after filing with the Secretary of State. The proposed rules are published on the State of Michigan's website at http://www.michigan.gov/ARD and in the 6/1/2023 issue of the Michigan Register.
