CRE Submits Comments to DOL on the Risk Analysis Portion
of its Data Quality Guidelines (Applicable to OSHA/MSHA)
CRE has provided written comments to DOL on the Risk Analysis
portion of its proposed Data Quality guidelines relating to
OSHA/MSHA. The Risk Analysis section was released separately
by the agency, after issuance of the rest of the DOL guidelines.
CRE's comments raise serious concerns regarding DOL's "adaptation"
of the SDWA guidelines. Specifically, DOL's proposed guidelines
would not set minimum quality standards for risk-related information.
