ADMINISTRATOR'S FINDINGS AND PRELIMINARY ORDER FINAL
On or about September 13, 2002 the OSHA Regional Administrator ("Administrator") issued findings and a preliminary order in the above captioned case. Thirty (30) days after the Administrator's findings and preliminary order, no party requested a hearing or filed objections as required by 29 C.F.R. § 1978.105. On January 6, 2003 I issued an Order To Show Cause why the Regional Administrator's findings and preliminary order should not be made final. In response to the order to show cause, the parties requested a January 17, 2003 telephone conference at which time the parties agreed that the Administrator's preliminary order and findings should be made final.
In light of the foregoing, it is hereby ORDERED that the Administrator's September 13, 2002 findings and preliminary order (copy enclosed) are made final and the hearing formerly set for February 24, 25, 2003 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania is CANCELED.
