In the Code of Federal Regulations, 29 CFR 1915, Shipyard Industry, OSHA addresses the recognition, evaluation, and control of atmospheric hazards. The regulation also provides the requirements for safely performing hot work, general working conditions, rigging and materials handling, tools, personal protective equipment, electrical machinery, toxic substances, and many other topics. The U. S. Coast Guard regulations concerning vessel confined space entry are found in several sections of Title 46 CFR.
