Regulation Title: 16 VAC 25-70-10 et seq. Virginia Confined Space Standard for the Telecommunications Industry

Description: Prescribes basic mandatory practices and procedures which telecommunications employers must establish and use for employee entry into and work within confined spaces.

1. Does the regulation meet the following goals?

- Reduce the incidence of material impairment of the health of Virginians due to workplace exposure to known hazards.

- Provide protection to telecommunications workers equal to that provided to workers in other industries.

- Protect the public's health, safety and welfare with the least possible cost and intrusiveness to the citizens and businesses of the Commonwealth.

2. Is the regulation written clearly and understandably?
