Silica Exposure Control Program

The purpose of this plan is to reduce employee exposure to respirable crystalline silica by identifying tasks that employees perform that could expose them to respirable crystalline silica dust and determining methods to reduce those exposures.

Crystalline silica is a common mineral found in many naturally occurring and man-made materials such as sand, concrete, brick, block, stone, and mortar. Exposures to respirable crystalline silica can occur when operations such as cutting, sawing, grinding, drilling and crushing are conducted on materials that contain crystalline silica.
