Processing Facilities, 2008
edition, Chapter 10, Dust Control, 10.3 Dust Emissions, 10.3.1., A method

Hazardous substances E101M102M104

Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: The
employer did not
furnish employment and a place of employment which were free from
recognized
hazards
