  • Guide to Jurisdiction in OSHA, Region 10 Version 2018.2
    Guide to Jurisdiction in OSHA, Region 10 Version 2018.2 General Principles - Federal civilian employers are covered by OSHA throughout the four-state region. State, county, municipal and other non-federal public employers (except tribal government employers) are covered by state programs in Washington, Oregon, and Alaska. There is no state program in Idaho, and OSHA’s coverage of public employers in Idaho is limited to the federal sector. OSHA regulates most private employers in Idaho with exceptions noted below. Industry / Location State Coverage OSHA Coverage Air Carriers1 Washington, Oregon and Alaska: Air Washington, Oregon and Alaska: carrier operations on the ground only. Aircraft cabin crewmembers’ exposures to only hazardous chemicals (HAZCOM), bloodborne pathogens, noise, recordkeeping, and access to employee exposure and medical records. Idaho: Air carrier operations on the ground. Aircraft cabin crewmembers’ exposures to only hazardous chemicals (HAZCOM), bloodborne pathogens, noise, recordkeeping, and access to employee exposure and medical records. Commercial Diving Washington, Oregon and Alaska: Washington, Oregon, and Alaska: Employers with diving operations staged Employers with diving operations from shore, piers, docks or other fixed staged from boats or other vessels afloat locations. on navigable waters 2. Idaho: All diving operations for covered employers. 1 The term “air carrier refers to private employers engaged in air transportation of passengers and/or cargo. The term “aircraft cabin crew member” refers to employees working in the cabin during flight such as flight attendants or medical staff; however, the term does not include pilots. 2 In the state of Washington, for vessels afloat, such as boats, ships and barges moored at a pier or dock, DOSH’s jurisdiction ends at the edge of the dock or pier and OSHA’s jurisdiction begins at the foot of the gangway or other means of access to the vessel; this principle applies to all situations involving moored vessels, including construction, longshoring, and ship repair.

  • April 16, 2020 Re: USDA Relief Funding for Dairy Idaho Dairymen, It Appears That We Are Very Near an Announcement by the U.S. D
    April 16, 2020 Re: USDA Relief Funding for Dairy Idaho Dairymen, It appears that we are very near an announcement by the U.S. Department of Agriculture on the details of major economic assistance for several sectors of agriculture provided by Congress in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act ('CARES Act'). Among other provisions for economic assistance for farmers and nutrition assistance for the public, that bill provides $9.5 billion for specialty crop producers, livestock and dairy producers and farmers who sell directly through local markets and restaurants. The Congress gave Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue broad authority on assigning the funds in order to speed up the process of getting the assistance out the door and into the economy. All four members of the Idaho congressional delegation, Representatives Mike Simpson and Russ Fulcher and Senators Mike Crapo and Jim Risch, supported the CARES Act and have gone to work since the bill was signed into law three weeks ago to help make sure Idaho agriculture gets the support it needs in the wake of our nation's response to this public health crisis. Representatives Simpson and Fulcher went on the record and joined several of their colleagues in urging the Secretary of Agriculture to implement significant help for dairy farmers. Senator Risch originated and led a letter supported by Senator Mike Crapo and 13 of their colleagues from around the country urging the Secretary to 'go big' to help the dairy industry through this crisis. As you can imagine, the Secretary of Agriculture is getting input from industry groups all over the country on useful ways to deploy the assistance funds.

  • The Hells Canyon Dam Controversy
    N 1956, AT THE TENDER AGE OF THIRTY-TWO, Frank Church made a bold bid for the United States Senate. After squeak- I ing out a victory in the hotly contested Idaho Democratic pri- mary, Church faced down incumbent Senator Herman Welker, re- ceiving nearly percent of the vote. One issue that loomed over the campaign was an emerging dis- pute over building dams in the Snake River’s Hells Canyon. While Church and other Democrats supported the construction of a high federal dam in the Idaho gorge, their Republican opponents favored developing the resource through private utility companies. Idaho EVOLUTION voters split on the issue, and so, seeking to avoid a divisive debate, Church downplayed his position during the general election “be- of an cause it was not a winning issue, politically.”1 Senator Frank Church Although Church won the election, he could not escape the is- sue. Indeed, his victory and subsequent assignment to the Senate Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs put him at the center of a growing controversy about damming Hells Canyon. Over the next eighteen years, Church wrestled with balancing Idaho’s demand for economic growth and his own pro-development beliefs with an emerging environmental movement’s demand for preservation of nature—in Idaho and across the nation. As he grappled with these competing interests, Church under- went a significant transformation. While Church often supported development early in his Senate career, he, like few others of his time, began to see the value of wild places and to believe that rivers offered more than power production opportunities and irrigation water.
