train employees about the hazards of asbestos, to monitor employee
exposure, provide medical surveillance, and to maintain accurate
records of employee exposure to asbestos. These records will be
used by employers, employees, and the Government to ensure that
employees are not harmed by exposure to asbestos in the
workplace.

The Agency is requesting an
adjustment decrease of 11,916 hours. The decrease is primarily the
result of the Agency decreasing the number of affected facilities
by one-half. The primary facilities have reduced from 110
facilities to 55 facilities and the secondary facilities have
reduced from 132 facilities to 66 facilities. Based on data from U.
S. Geological Survey, the Agency assumes that the number of
affected facilities has declined by one-half since the 1994 Final
regulatory impact and regulatory flexibility analysis.
