CFR 144A - Marine Terminals

In the July 25, 1997, Federal Register [62 FR 40141-40234], federal OSHA issued a final rule that revised the regulations for the Longshoring Standard (i.e., ship side cargo handling) and those parallel sections of the Marine Terminals Standard (i.e., shore side cargo handling). In the June 30, 2000, Federal Register [65 FR 40936-40951], federal OSHA issued technical amendments to the Marine Terminal, Longshoring and Gear Certification Standards. 

From an OSHNC enforcement perspective, Longshoring and Gear Certification are outside of OSHNC jurisdiction and the Marine Terminal standard, 29 CFR 1917, is only applicable to public sector employees of local governments or of the State of North Carolina. The final rule was adopted verbatim in North Carolina by the Commissioner of Labor with an effective date of December 7, 2000.
