Fellow Designated Safety and Health Officials
Attached is a copy of the guidance manual entitled "Hazard
Communication - A Program Guide for Federal Agencies."
This manual can assist your agency in meeting the key
requirements of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration
(OSHA) Hazard Communication Standard (HCS), 29 CFR 1910.1200.
The manual is one element of OSHA's Technical Assistance Program
for the Federal Hazard Communication Program (FHCP), a
Governmentwide initiative to implement HCS in all Federal
facilities using hazardous materials.
This effort was a joint labor-management effort and reflects the
contributions of many individuals. The manual was prepared by
the Department of Agriculture (USDA) in close cooperation with
OSHA's Office of Federal Agency Programs and the American
Federation of Government Employees, AFL/CIO. I wish to thank
your staff for the comments they were kind enough to provide.
Printed copies of the manual will be available from the
Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office
(GPO) in early October 1987. Your agency can ride our initial
print order and obtain copies of the manual at a cost much less
than would be expected later with a direct purchase from GPO. If
you would like to ride the printing of this publication, please
ask your staff to submit a SF-1 (Printing and Binding
Requisition) to GPO and request to ride Agriculture Requisition
No. 7-04056. The SF-1 must be received by Septenittflr 18. 1981.
Themanual being printed by GPO will be three-hole punched for
use in a three-ring binder. A vellum cover will be provided, and
a second cover (sleeve) will also be provided to insert into the
outside plastic pocket of a three-ring binder.

Agencies who wish to modify this manual so that it responds to
unique activities or needs of their facilities can obtain- a copy
of the document's text on 5 1/4 inch diskette. Requests for the
diskette should be directed to the USDA!s Safety and Health
Management Division, Washington, D.C. 20250 (FTS telephone
447-8247).
Additional information about the Federal Hazard Communication
Program can be obtained from Ms. Gail Kleiner, OSHA's Office of
Federal Agency Programs, Washington, D.C. 20210 (FTS telephone
523-8085).
An effective hazard communication program will improve the
safety, health and productivity of our Federal workforce. I
believe this manual will be a valuable resource in developing
your program.
