• Description:
  These guidelines and the dust controls that are now available on half-lane and larger asphalt pavement milling machines are the result of a successful ten-year collaborative effort by industry, management, labor, and government through the Silica/Asphalt Milling Machine Partnership. The Partnership was established in 2003 to find a way to control workers' exposure to respirable crystalline silica during asphalt pavement milling in highway construction. Members of the Partnership include the National Asphalt Pavement Association, numerous paving contractors, all U.S. and foreign manufacturers of milling machines sold in the U.S., the Association of Equipment Manufacturers, the International Union of Operating Engineers, the Laborers' International Union of North America, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the Federal Highway Administration, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health.
