Sec. 1952.107  Changes to approved plans.

    In accordance with part 1953 of this chapter, the following Oregon 
plan changes were approved by the Assistant Secretary:
    (a) The State submitted a revised field operations manual patterned 
after the Federal field operations manual, including modifications, in 
effect February 11, 1985, which superseded the State's previously 
approved manual. The Assistant Secretary approved the manual on July 29, 
1986.
    (b) The State submitted an industrial hygiene technical manual 
patterned after the Federal manual, including modifications, in effect 
March 30, 1984. The Assistant Secretary approved the manual on July 29, 
1986.
    (c) The State submitted an inspection scheduling system which 
schedules inspections based on lists of employers with a high incidence 
of workers compensation claims, whose operations are within industries 
with high injury rates, or which have a high potential for health 
problems. The Assistant Secretary approved the supplement on July 29, 
1986.
    (d) The State submitted several changes to its administrative 
regulations concerning personal sampling, petition to modify abatement 
dates, penalties for repeat violations, and recordkeeping exemptions. 
The Assistant Secretary approved these changes on July 29, 1986.

    (e) Legislation. (1) On March 29, 1994, the Acting Assistant 
Secretary approved Oregon's revised statutory penalty levels as enacted 
subject to further action by the State in 1995 to correct the State's 
omission of revisions of the penalty for posting violations. Aside from 
posting penalties, Oregon's revised penalty levels are the same as the 
revised Federal penalty levels contained in section 17 of the Act as 
amended on November 5, 1990.
    (2) [Reserved]
    (f) Oregon's State plan changes excluding coverage under the plan of 
all private sector employment (including tribal and Indian-owned 
enterprises) on Umatilla Indian reservation or trust lands, by letters 
of April 29 and July 14, 1997 (see Sec. Sec. 1952.105); extending 
coverage under the plan to Superfund sites and private contractors 
working on U.S. Army Corps of Engineers dam construction projects, as 
noted in a 1992 Memorandum of Understanding; and specifying four (4) 
unusual circumstances where Federal enforcement authority may be 
exercised, as described in a 1991 addendum to the State's operational 
status agreement, were approved by the Acting Assistant Secretary on 
September 24, 1997.
    (g) Oregon's State plan changes extending Federal enforcement 
jurisdiction to shore side shipyard and boatyard employment, as 
described in a 1998 Memorandum of Understanding and addendum to the

employment, including tribal and Indian-owned enterprises, on all Indian 
reservations, including establishments on trust lands outside of 
reservations, as described in a separate 1998 addendum, were approved by 
the Assistant Secretary on January 6, 1999.
