• Two options:
Manufacturer procedures
or
Employer procedures(criteria requirements)
ASSEMBLY / DISASSEMBLY• General requirements, such as:
– A/D Director = “competent & qualified person”p q p– A/D Director must:
• Understand proceduresR i d ( l A/D Di t h d• Review procedures (unless A/D Director has used them before)
• Check that crew members understand their tasks, hazards
– Follow manufacturer’s prohibitionsAll rigging work is done by a Qualified Rigger– All rigging work is done by a Qualified Rigger
– When using outriggers - fully extend or deploy asper the load chart

STATE PLAN STATES• States must set job safety and health standards that
are “at least as effective as” comparable federal standardsstandards.
• Although most states adopt standards identical to federal ones, there is some flexibility. Therefore,federal ones, there is some flexibility. Therefore, cranes and derricks standards may differ in states operating their own plans.
• Some states already have their own cranes and derricks standards in place. Their regulations must be “at least as effective as” the federal standard.at least as effective as the federal standard.
