SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Secretary has renewed the NACOSH
charter. The charter will expire two years from its filing date.
Congress established NACOSH in Section 7(a) of the Occupational
Safety and Health Act of 1970 (OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651, 656) to advise,
consult with, and make recommendations to the Secretary and the
Secretary of Health and Human Services on matters relating to the
administration of the OSH Act. NACOSH is a non-discretionary advisory
committee of indefinite duration.
NACOSH operates in accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee
Act (FACA) (5 U.S.C. App. 2), its implementing regulations (41 CFR part
102-3), and OSHA's regulations on NACOSH (29 CFR part 1912a). Pursuant
to FACA (5 U.S.C. App. 2, 14(b)(2)), the NACOSH charter must be renewed
every two years.
The new charter increases the estimated annual operational costs
for NACOSH by approximately 3 percent (from $195,840 to $201,715.20).
The new NACOSH charter is available to read or download at <a href="http://www.regulations.gov">http://www.regulations.gov</a> (Docket No. OSHA-2022-0002), the federal rulemaking
