The references contained in this appendix provide information that can be helpful in understanding and complying with the requirements contained in 1910.269. The national consensus standards referenced in this appendix contain detailed specifications that employers may follow in complying with the more performance-oriented requirements of OSHA's final rule. Except as specifically noted in 1910.269, however, compliance with the national consensus standards is not a substitute for compliance with the provisions of the OSHA standard.
