Appendix F

EPA's RESPONSIBILITY TO IDENTIFY SAFE LEVELS FOR OCCUPATIONAL NOISE EXPOSURE

Although the workplace is a vital component of the human environment, the Environmental Protection Agency does not have jurisdiction over most occupational health and safety matters. These matters have traditionally been the responsibility of the Departments of Labor and Health, Education and Welfare. Section 6(b)(5 ) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1972 specifies that the Secretary of Labor, ". . . in promulgating standards dealing with toxic materials or harmful physical agents . . . shall set the standard which most adequately assures, to the extent feasible, on the basis of the best available evidence, that no employee will suffer material impairment of health or functional capacity even if such employee has regular exposure to the hazard dealt with by such standard for the period of his working life . . . In addition to the attainment of the highest degree of health and safety protection for the employee, other considerations shall be the latest available scientific data in the field, the feasibility of the standards, and experience gained under this and other health and safety laws."

In contrast, section 5(a)(2) of the Noise Control Act of 1972 directs EPA's Adminisrator to "publish information on the levels of environmental noise, the attainment and maintenance of which in defined areas under various conditions are requisite to protecting the public health and welfare with an adequate margin of safety."

The words "public health and welfare" appear in a number of places in the Noise Control Act, and have a broader reference than those defining jurisdiction in the Occupational Safety and Health Act, namely, the entire American public at all times rather than the American worker during his workday. In addition, the requirement of an "adequate margin of safety" does not appear in the Occupational Safety and Health Act, which instead uses the phrase, "no employee will suffer material impairment of health or functional capacity." These distinctions indicate that EPA's duty to identify levels for exposure to noise is broader in scope and more stringent that OSHA'S duty to protect in the occupational area. Furthermore, the intent of this document is to identify safe levels for a variety of settings, whereas the responsibility of HEW is to develop occupational exposure criteria and that of the Department of Labor is to promulgate and enforce standards. In the writing of such standards, the Labor Department must take feasibility into account, a consideration omitted in the writing of this document.

EPA's responsibility to identify levels of exposure to noise "in defined areas under various conditions" necessarily includes an identification of exposure levels in the workplace
