Stakeholder input is an essential part of the OEL updating process. Stakeholders are invited to submit comments on any or all of the proposed OEL changes. Specific concerns should contain a clear description of the rationale and appropriate documentation.

Where an exposure limit for a hazardous substance has not been recommended and is not under consideration by the ACGIH at this time, stakeholders are invited during this consultation period to nominate the substance for development of an OEL. The submission should include a proposed limit and supporting documentation used by a jurisdiction that has adopted the proposed limit.

The 2011 consultation period ends February 17, 2012. Submissions may be mailed, faxed, or sent electronically to the following addresses:
