Recently, NAPA released a Special Report: Written Silica Exposure Control Plans for Road Construction Activities, which provides guidance on developing ECPs for common road construction activities. This document, coupled with NAPA’s Competent Person guidance, offers specific examples of how to comply with some of the rule’s provisions. NAPA's guidance provides additional information on conducting an exposure assessment. For more resources related to the OSHA Silica Rule, visit www.AsphaltPavement.org/Silica.
