Due to this, OSHA’s Hexavalent Chromium Rule (29 CFR 1910.1026) may apply. The manufacturer of this treated wood has monitoring data indicating the levels will be below the established limits and action levels when used under usual conditions. If unusual circumstances exist, monitoring may be required.
