2868,"If HMOs are like the strict parents of healthcare, what's their golden rule for doctors?","[""## Health Maintenance Organizations A health maintenance organization (HMO) is a type of managed care organization that provides a form of health care coverage that is fulfilled through hospitals, doctors and other providers with which the HMO has a contract. Unlike traditional health insurance, an HMO sets out guidelines under which doctors can operate. On average, an HMO costs less than comparable traditional health insurance, with a trade-off of limitations on the range of treatments available. Unlike many traditional insurers, HMOs do not merely provide financing for medical care. The HMO actually delivers the treatment as well. Doctors, hospitals and insurers all participate in the HMO business arrangement. The NAIC has adopted a model law and regulation that governs the licensure of HMOs: the Health Maintenance Organization Model Act (#430) and the Model Regulation to Implement Rules Regarding Contracts and Services of Health Maintenance Organization (#432). In most cases, access to an HMO is only available to employer group plans. ## Preferred Provider Organizations A preferred provider organization (PPO) is a group of doctors and/or hospitals that provides medical service only to a specific group or association. The PPO may be sponsored by a particular insurance company, one or more employers, or some other type of organization. PPO physicians provide medical services to the policyholders, employees or members of the sponsor(s) at discounted rates, and they may set up utilization review programs to help control the cost of medical care. In some states, managed care providers may be licensed by an agency outside the insurance department. 9 S ## Chapter 24 ## Managing General Agents A managing general agent (MGA) is an insurance producer authorized by an insurance company to manage all or part of the insurer's business in a specific geographic territory. Activities on behalf of the insurer may include marketing, underwriting, issuing policies, collecting premiums, appointing and supervising other agents, paying claims, and negotiating reinsurance. Many states regulate the activities and contracts of MGAs."", 'Many states regulate the activities and contracts of MGAs. The NAIC has adopted the Managing General Agents Act (#225) to guide the states in regulating MGAs. Under the model, an MGA is defined as any person who engages in all of the following: - 1. Negotiates and binds ceding reinsurance contracts on behalf of an insurer or manages all or part of the insurance business of an insurer-including the management of a separate division, department or underwriting office-and who acts as an agent for such insurer whether known as a managing general agent, manager or other similar term or title. - 2. With or without authority and either separately or together with affiliates, directly or indirectly produces and underwrites an amount of gross direct written premium equal to or greater than 5% of the policyholder surplus in any one quarter or year, as reported in the last annual statement of the insurer. - 3. Engages in either or both of the following: - (a) Adjusts or pays claims in excess of an amount determined by the insurance commissioner. - (b) Negotiates reinsurance on behalf of the insurer. Under the model, an MGA does not include any of the following: - 1. An employee of the insurer. - 2. A manager of a U.S. branch of an alien insurer who resides in this country. - 3. An underwriting manager who, pursuant to contract, manages all insurance operations of the insurer, who is under common control with the insurer, subject to [cite to state law] relating to the regulation of insurance holding company systems, and who is not compensated based upon the volume of premiums written. - 4. An insurance company, in connection with the acceptance or rejection of reinsurance on a block of business. - 5. The attorney-in-fact authorized by or acting for the subscribers of a reciprocal insurer or interinsurance exchange under a power of attorney. In most states, MGAs must be licensed as producers and are not allowed to place business until a written contract exists among all parties. Under Model #225, insurers are required to monitor the financial stability of MGAs under contract. 1 S ## Chapter 25 ## Multiple Employer Welfare Arrangements', 'Members of the board are also policyholders. Individuals who sell products for small mutuals should be licensed as producers, as outlined in Model #218 and the Uniform Licensing Standards (ULS). 5 ## Chapter 22 ## Insurance Consultants An insurance consultant is a person who charges a fee for giving advice about insurance products. Not all states require a separate consultant license. In those states, the individual can obtain a producer license and abide by the disclosure provisions for insurance consultants. In states that do require a special license, the applicant is usually required to pass an examination. The exam may be either one of the same subject-matter examinations that insurance producers must pass or an examination specific to consultants. In states that require an examination, a waiver may be granted if the applicant can demonstrate a specified amount of insurance experience. States usually adopt exemptions from the consultant licensing requirement. The exemptions are available as long as the person is acting in his or her professional capacity or in the normal course of business. Common exemptions are: - 1. A licensed attorney. - 2. A trust officer of a bank. - 3. An actuary or certified public accountant. - 4. A risk manager who consults for his or her employer only. If a state requires appointments for insurance producers, appointments should not be required for insurance consultants. The consultant represents the insured and is not an agent of the insurance company. Some states prohibit an individual from holding both an insurance producer license and an insurance consultant license. Other states allow an insurance producer to function in either capacity with full disclosure. In all cases where an individual is acting as an insurance consultant, a written contract should be used to clearly explain the terms of the consultant arrangement. In states that have a separate insurance consultant license, it is a common practice to have a continuing education (CE) requirement that mirrors the CE requirement for insurance producers. 7 S ## Chapter 23 ## Managed Care Providers ## Health Maintenance Organizations']",medium,answer,"The 'golden rule' for doctors in an HMO is to operate under the guidelines set by the HMO.

The primary purpose of the standard is to protect workers from the unexpected energization or start-up of machines or equipment, or release of stored energy. - · Complete standard - n 29 CFR 1910.147 http://www.osha.gov/pls/oshaweb/owadisp.show\\_document?p\\_table=STANDARDS&p\\_id=9804 - · Booklet - n Control of Hazardous Energy Lockout/Tagout. OSHA Publication 3120 (2002). http://www.osha.gov/Publications/osha3120.pdf"", '## Bloodborne Pathogens The OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens (BBP) standard (29 CFR 1910.1030) is designed to protect workers from the health hazards of exposure to bloodborne pathogens. Employers are subject to the BBP standard if they have workers whose jobs put them at reasonable risk of coming into contact with blood or other potentially infectious materials (OPIM). Employers subject to this standard must develop a written Exposure Control Plan, provide training to exposed workers, and comply with other requirements of the standard, including use of Standard Precautions when dealing with blood and OPIM. In 2001, in response to the Needlestick Safety and Prevention Act, OSHA revised the Bloodborne Pathogens standard. The revised standard clarifies the need for employers to select safer needle devices and to involve workers in identifying and choosing these devices. The updated standard also requires employers to maintain a log of injuries from contaminated sharps. OSHA estimates that 5.6 million workers in the healthcare industry and related occupations are at risk of occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens, including HIV, HBV, HCV, and others. All occupational exposure to blood or OPIM places workers at risk for infection with bloodborne pathogens. OSHA defines blood to mean human blood, human blood components, and products made from human blood. OPIM means: (1) The following human body fluids: semen, vaginal secretions, cerebrospinal fluid, synovial fluid, pleural fluid, pericardial fluid, peritoneal fluid, amniotic fluid, saliva in dental procedures, any body fluid that is visibly contaminated with blood, and all body fluids in situations where it is difficult or impossible to differentiate between body fluids; (2) Any unfixed tissue or organ (other than intact skin) from a human (living or dead); and (3) HIV- or HBV-containing cell or tissue cultures, organ cultures, and HIV- or HBVcontaining culture medium or other solutions; and blood, organs, or other tissues from experimental animals infected with HIV or HBV.', ""| | Formaldehyde | Formaldehyde | Formaldehyde | |-------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------| | Exposure routes | Symptoms | Target Organs | | Inhalation; Ingestion; Skin and/or eye contact. | Irritation of eyes, skin, nose, throat, respiratory system; Tearing; Coughing; Wheezing; Dermatitis; Potential occupational nasal carcin- ogen. | Eyes; Skin; Respiratory system. | ## Employers must provide the following to workers to prevent exposure: - · Appropriate PPE, 29 CFR 1910.132, 29 CFR 1910.133, and 29 CFR 1910.1048(h). - · Acceptable eyewash facilities within the immediate work area for emergency use, if there is any possibility that a worker's eyes may be splashed with solutions containing 0.1 percent or greater formaldehyde, 29 CFR 1910.1048(i)(3). ## Latex One of the most common chemicals that laboratory workers are exposed to is latex, a plant protein. The most common cause of latex allergy is direct contact with latex, a natural plant derivative used in making certain disposable gloves and other products. Some healthcare workers have been determined to be latex sensitive, with reactions ranging from localized dermatitis (skin irritation) to immediate, possibly life-threatening reactions. Under OSHA's Personal Protective Equipment standard, 29 CFR 1910.132, the employer must ensure that appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) is accessible at the worksite or issued to workers. Latex-free gloves, glove liners, powder-free gloves, or other similar alternatives are obtainable and must be readily accessible to those workers who are allergic to latex gloves or other latex-containing PPE, 29 CFR 1910.1030(c)(3)(iii).

Once a worker becomes allergic to latex, special precautions are needed to prevent exposures. Certain medications may reduce the allergic symptoms, but complete latex avoidance is the most effective approach. Appropriate work practices should be used to reduce the chance of reactions to latex. If a worker must wear latex gloves, oil-based hand creams or lotions (which can cause glove deterioration) should not be used unless they have been shown to reduce latex-related problems and maintain glove barrier protection. After removing latex gloves, workers should wash their hands with a mild soap and dry them thoroughly.

1539,What are the main sources of evidence we currently have about diet and cancer prevention?,"['these patterns are also lower in added sugar, saturated and/or trans fats, and excess calories. These healthy dietary pattern scores have also been associated with a lower risk of colorectal cancer 22,64 and total cancer incidence 65,66 in meta-analyses of observational studies. Two randomized clinical trials found lower overall cancer or breast cancer 8 risk among those randomized to follow the Mediterranean diet. Thus, these studies provide consistent and compelling evidence that healthy dietary patterns are associated with a decreased risk of cancer, all-cause mortality, and other chronic disease endpoints. These healthy dietary patterns are associated not only with improved health but also with a lower environmental impact, such as reduced greenhouse gas emissions and energy, land, and water use compared with the average US diet. 67 Environmentally sustainable diets emphasize fruits and vegetables, whole grains, plant-sourced protein foods, unsaturated plant oils, and more limited (optional) quantities of animal-based protein foods, dairy products, and sugar. 68 Attention to complex issues of food production practices and distribution will be needed to identify approaches to further reduce the carbon footprint and other environmental impacts of dietary sources. Regardless, achieving recommended dietary patterns, such as those recommended herein, may lead to improved food security and environmental sustainability for future generations. Healthy dietary patterns may reduce the risk of cancer and other diseases through multiple mechanisms. For example, plant-based diets are associated with lower levels of inflammation, improved insulin response, and less oxidative DNA damage. 69 Plant-based diets are also associated with higher concentrations of beneficial gut bacteria compared with mostly animal-based diets high in saturated fat and sugar. 70,71 Additional research on the relationship of dietary factors with these metabolic and microbial biomarkers and with health outcomes will continue to help in elucidating the role that diet plays in carcinogenesis. ## Vegetables and fruit', 'The glycemic load gives a truer picture of how blood glucose is elevated in relation to the intake of a specific food item. Much research has been conducted examining the potential impact of the glycemic load of a diet on cancer risk. 170 Most recent comprehensive reports indicate that eating a dietary pattern high in glycemic load is associated with a higher risk of endometrial cancer. More research is needed to determine the impact on additional cancer sites. ## Inflammation and Anti-Inflammatory Strategies Do anti-inflammatory diets reduce cancer risk? Inflammation has long been recognized as a physiological response to tissue injury, and its relationship to microbial infection was recognized hundreds of years ago. However, the role of inflammation in carcinogenesis was recognized more recently, and the relationships of diet, inflammation, and risk of cancer (as well as cardiovascular disease and overall mortality) are still an evolving area of research. A combination of laboratory experimentation and epidemiological research has identified certain foods and their chemical components that promote systemic inflammation as well as chronic inflammation of certain tissues. 171,172 This information is the basis of anti-inflammatory dietary patterns, which share some characteristics with the recommendations in this guideline, such as high intake of vegetables and fruit and low intake of red and processed meat. ## Irradiated Foods ## Why are foods irradiated, and can these foods increase cancer risk? Food irradiation (the application of ionizing radiation to food) is a technology that improves the safety and extends the shelf life of foods by reducing or eliminating microorganisms and insects. Similar to pasteurizing milk and canning fruits and vegetables, irradiation can make food safer for the consumer. Irradiation does not make foods radioactive; compromise nutritional quality; or noticeably change the taste, texture, or appearance of food. In fact, changes made by irradiation are so minimal that it is not easy to tell if a food has been irradiated.', ""## Dietary patterns as a modern and more appropriate focus Because of accumulating evidence on healthy dietary patterns in relation to chronic disease risk reduction, an emphasis on dietary patterns is now highlighted in the 2015 to 2020 US DGA. 56 This is particularly relevant because, although the associations of individual nutrients and foods with cancer may be small, additive and interactive effects could be important. Several comprehensive 4 reviews support recommendations to follow healthy dietary patterns. The 2015 Dietary Guidelines Scientific Report concluded that there is moderate evidence that dietary patterns rich in plant foods and lower in animal products and refined carbohydrates are associated with a lower risk of postmenopausal breast cancer, and plant-based patterns low in red and processed meat and added sugars are associated with a lower risk of colorectal cancer. In addition, 7 the WCRF/AICR concluded that a Mediterranean diet is 'convincingly' associated with a lower risk of weight gain, overweight, or obesity, whereas a 'Western'-type dietary pattern is 'probably' associated with an increased risk of these outcomes. The Diet Patterns Methods Project, 4 57 a multicenter study of dietary patterns and cause-specific mortality, reported an 8% to 17% lower risk of cancer mortality among women and a 17% to 24% lower risk among men whose diets were most (vs least) concordant with 4 healthy dietary pattern scores. The dietary patterns examined included the Mediterranean Diet, 58,59 the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension diet, 60,61 the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Healthy Eating Index, 62 and the Harvard Alternate Healthy Eating Index. 63 Although these and other healthful dietary patterns have unique features, they share a foundation of mostly plant foods (including nonstarchy vegetables, whole fruits, whole grains, legumes, and nuts/seeds) and healthy protein sources (higher in legumes and/or fish and/or poultry, and lower in processed meats and red meat), and include unsaturated fats (eg, monosaturated and/or polyunsaturated fat); these""]",hard,answer,"The main sources of evidence about diet and cancer prevention include:

The last time Oklahoma was before us, it asked this Court to usurp congressional authority and disestablish the Creek Reservation because, otherwise, the State 'would not have jurisdiction over' 'crimes committed against Indians' within its boundaries.

See, e.g., Spears, 485 P. 3d, at 875, 877. ------ J., dissenting GORSUCH, D Against all this evidence, what is the Court's reply? It acknowledges that, at the Nation's founding, tribal sovereignty precluded States from prosecuting crimes on tribal lands by or against tribal members without congressional authorization. See ante, at 5. But the Court suggests this traditional ''notion'' flipped 180 degrees sometime in 'the latter half of the 1800s.' Ante, at 5, 21. Since then, the Court says, Oklahoma has enjoyed the 'inherent' power to try at least crimes by non-Indians against tribal members on tribal reservations until and unless Congress preempts state authority."", ""## J., dissenting GORSUCH, A. Scalia & B. Garner, Reading Law 252 (2012); 'grant of statehood' to Oklahoma did not endow the State with any power to try 'crimes committed by or against Indians' on tribal lands but reserved that authority to the federal government and Tribes alone. Ramsey, 271 U. S., at 469; see also Tiger, 221 U. S., at 309. From start to finish, the Court defies our duty to interpret Congress's laws and our own prior work 'harmoniously' as 'part of an entire corpus juris.' see also Goodyear Atomic Corp. v. Miller, 486 U. S. 174, 184-185 (1988). C Putting aside these astonishing errors, Congress's work and this Court's precedents yield three clear principles that firmly resolve this case. First, tribal sovereign authority excludes the operation of other sovereigns' criminal laws unless and until Congress ordains otherwise. Second, while Congress has extended a good deal of federal criminal law to tribal lands, in Oklahoma it has authorized the State to prosecute crimes by or against Native Americans within tribal boundaries only if it satisfies certain requirements. Under Public Law 280, the State must remove state-law barriers to jurisdiction and obtain tribal consent. Third, because Oklahoma has done neither of these things, it lacks the authority it seeks to try crimes against tribal members within a tribal reservation. Until today, all this settled law was well appreciated by this Court, the Executive Branch, and even Oklahoma. Consider first our own precedents and those of other courts. In 1946 in Williams v. United States, this Court recognized that, while States'may have jurisdiction over offenses committed on th[e] reservation between persons who are not Indians, the laws and courts of the United States, rather than those of [the States], have jurisdiction over offenses committed there... by one who is not an Indian against one who is an Indian.' 327 U.

See Indian Law and Order Commission, A Roadmap for Making Native America Safer: Report to the President and Congress of the United States xi, xiv, 11-15 (Nov. 2013). Still, none of this finds its way into the Court's cost-benefit analysis. Instead, the Court marches on. The second 'factor' it weighs in its 'balance'-and the only history it seems interested in consulting-concerns Oklahoma's account of its experiences in the last two years since McGirt. Adopting the State's representations wholesale, the Court says that decision has posed Oklahoma with law-and-order 'challenge[s].' Ante, at 4. To support its thesis, the Court cites the State's unsubstantiated 'estimat[e]' that McGirt has forced it to 'transfer prosecutorial responsibility for more than 18,000 cases per year to' federal and tribal authorities. Ibid. Apparently on the belief that the transfer of cases from state to federal prosecutors equates to an eruption of chaos and criminality, the Court remarks casually that traditional limitations on state prosecutorial authority on tribal lands were 'insignificant in the real world' before McGirt. Ante, at 16. But what does this prove? Put aside for the moment questions about the accuracy of Oklahoma's statistics and what the number of cases transferred from state to federal prosecutors may or may not mean for law and order. See Tr. of Oral Arg. 26 (questioning whether the State's 'figures' might be 'grossly exaggerated').

The last time Oklahoma was before us, it asked this Court to usurp congressional authority and disestablish the Creek Reservation because, otherwise, the State 'would not have jurisdiction over' 'crimes committed against Indians' within its boundaries. See Tr. of Oral Arg. in McGirt v. Oklahoma, No. 18-9526, O. T. 2019, p. McGirt, 591 U. S., at \\_\\_\\_-\\_\\_\\_ (slip op., at 37-38). In 1991, Oklahoma's attorney general formally resolved that major '[c]rimes committed by or against Indians... are under the exclusive province of the United States,' while Tribes retain exclusive jurisdiction over'minor crimes committed by Indians.' Haney, 22 And Oklahoma's own courts have recently taken the same position even in the face of vehement opposition from the State's executive branch. See, e.g., Spears, 485 P. 3d, at 875, 877. ------ J., dissenting GORSUCH, D Against all this evidence, what is the Court's reply? It acknowledges that, at the Nation's founding, tribal sovereignty precluded States from prosecuting crimes on tribal lands by or against tribal members without congressional authorization. See ante, at 5. But the Court suggests this traditional ''notion'' flipped 180 degrees sometime in 'the latter half of the 1800s.' Ante, at 5, 21. Since then, the Court says, Oklahoma has enjoyed the 'inherent' power to try at least crimes by non-Indians against tribal members on tribal reservations until and unless Congress preempts state authority."", ""## J., dissenting GORSUCH, A. Scalia & B. Garner, Reading Law 252 (2012); 'grant of statehood' to Oklahoma did not endow the State with any power to try 'crimes committed by or against Indians' on tribal lands but reserved that authority to the federal government and Tribes alone. Ramsey, 271 U. S., at 469; see also Tiger, 221 U. S., at 309. From start to finish, the Court defies our duty to interpret Congress's laws and our own prior work 'harmoniously' as 'part of an entire corpus juris.' see also Goodyear Atomic Corp. v. Miller, 486 U. S. 174, 184-185 (1988). C Putting aside these astonishing errors, Congress's work and this Court's precedents yield three clear principles that firmly resolve this case. First, tribal sovereign authority excludes the operation of other sovereigns' criminal laws unless and until Congress ordains otherwise. Second, while Congress has extended a good deal of federal criminal law to tribal lands, in Oklahoma it has authorized the State to prosecute crimes by or against Native Americans within tribal boundaries only if it satisfies certain requirements. Under Public Law 280, the State must remove state-law barriers to jurisdiction and obtain tribal consent. Third, because Oklahoma has done neither of these things, it lacks the authority it seeks to try crimes against tribal members within a tribal reservation. Until today, all this settled law was well appreciated by this Court, the Executive Branch, and even Oklahoma. Consider first our own precedents and those of other courts. In 1946 in Williams v. United States, this Court recognized that, while States'may have jurisdiction over offenses committed on th[e] reservation between persons who are not Indians, the laws and courts of the United States, rather than those of [the States], have jurisdiction over offenses committed there... by one who is not an Indian against one who is an Indian.' 327 U. S. 711, 714 (footnote ## J., dissenting GORSUCH,"", ""J., dissenting GORSUCH, Tribal Nations began seeking retrocession and repeal.' Brief for National Indigenous Women's Resource Center et al. as Amici Curiae 12. Recently, a bipartisan congressional commission agreed that more state criminal jurisdiction in Indian country is often not a good policy choice. See Indian Law and Order Commission, A Roadmap for Making Native America Safer: Report to the President and Congress of the United States xi, xiv, 11-15 (Nov. 2013). Still, none of this finds its way into the Court's cost-benefit analysis. Instead, the Court marches on. The second 'factor' it weighs in its 'balance'-and the only history it seems interested in consulting-concerns Oklahoma's account of its experiences in the last two years since McGirt. Adopting the State's representations wholesale, the Court says that decision has posed Oklahoma with law-and-order 'challenge[s].' Ante, at 4. To support its thesis, the Court cites the State's unsubstantiated 'estimat[e]' that McGirt has forced it to 'transfer prosecutorial responsibility for more than 18,000 cases per year to' federal and tribal authorities. Ibid. Apparently on the belief that the transfer of cases from state to federal prosecutors equates to an eruption of chaos and criminality, the Court remarks casually that traditional limitations on state prosecutorial authority on tribal lands were 'insignificant in the real world' before McGirt. Ante, at 16. But what does this prove? Put aside for the moment questions about the accuracy of Oklahoma's statistics and what the number of cases transferred from state to federal prosecutors may or may not mean for law and order. See Tr. of Oral Arg. 26 (questioning whether the State's 'figures' might be 'grossly exaggerated'). Taking the Court's account at face value, it might amount to a reason for Oklahoma to lobby the Cherokee to consent to state jurisdiction. It might be a reason for the State to petition ## J., dissenting GORSUCH,"", ""## J., dissenting GORSUCH, 2d Sess., 78 Appropriations Act, H. R. 2471, 117th Cong., (2022). Meanwhile, the Solicitor General has offered the Executive Branch's judgment that McGirt' s 'practical consequences' do not justify this Court's intervention, explaining that the Department of Justice is 'working diligently with tribal and State partners' in Oklahoma. See Brief for United States as Amicus Curiae 32. maybe even See, There is even more evidence cutting against the Court's dystopian tale. According to a recent United States Attorney in Oklahoma, 'the sky isn't falling' and 'partnerships between tribal law enforcement and state law enforcement' are strong. A.

It is a policy argument through and through. Nor is the Court's policy argument exactly complete in its assessment of the costs and benefits.

S., at \\_\\_\\_-\\_\\_\\_ (slip op., at 36-42). This Court anticipated, too, that this process would require a period of readjustment. But, the Court recognized, all this was necessary only because Oklahoma had long overreached its authority on tribal reservations and defied legally binding congressional promises. See ibid. this new workload think the 'costs' Notably, too, neither the tribal nor the federal authorities on the receiving end of of this period of readjustment begin to justify the Court's course. For their part, Tribes in Oklahoma have hired more police officers, prosecutors, and judges. See Cherokee Brief 10-11. Based on that investment, Oklahoma's Tribes have begun to prosecute substantially more cases than they once did. See id., at 12-13. And they have also shown a willingness to work with Oklahoma, having signed hundreds of cross-deputization agreements allowing local law enforcement to collaborate with tribal police.

This section contains several specific definitions and exceptions to the disclosure requirement. The Producer Licensing (EX) Working Group has not developed any formal guidance on the implementation of Section 18, but the NAIC issued a frequently asked questions (FAQ) document to give additional guidance. This FAQ is in the Appendices. State licensing directors should confer with their legal counsel about appropriate methods for implementing this section. 7 ## Chapter 16 ## License Renewal and Reinstatement ## License Renewal Under the Producer Licensing Model Act (#218), the general rule is that a producer license remains in effect unless suspended, cancelled or revoked. All states have a procedure for individual producers to verify compliance with continuing education (CE) requirements. In states that renew licenses, the CE compliance period should coincide with the license renewal. The Producer Licensing (EX) Working Group has adopted a uniform license renewal application that is recommended for use by states that renew producer licenses. The current version of the application can be found on the Working Group's web page. States should use the data elements from the uniform renewal application, whether renewal is done via paper application or electronically. The previous reciprocity provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) also applied to the license renewal of nonresidents. The process should be similar to initial licensing: - 1. The proper application and fee are submitted. - 2. If the answers to any of the questions on the renewal application indicate conduct prohibited by Section 12 of Model #218, a state can require additional documentation. - 3. No other attachments should be required. A number of states use the electronic license renewal process. This process automatically checks the NAIC and National Insurance Producer Registry (NIPR) databases to verify the producer's standing in the home/resident state. The NIPR process uses the data elements from the uniform renewal application. Model #218 contains a special process for producers who cannot comply with CE requirements due to military service or other extenuating circumstances."", ""When a producer's license has been suspended for a period of time that extends beyond the producer's license expiration date, reinstatement is not an option. The producer must request reissuance of a license and should not be allowed to merely apply for a new license by passing an examination and submitting a new application. The producer's request for reinstatement or reissuance must include sufficient information to allow the insurance department to determine whether the basis of the revocation, suspension or forfeiture of the applicant's license no longer exists and whether it will be in the public interest to grant the request for a new or reinstated license. The burden of proof to establish such facts is on the producer. In most states, the producer will have a right to an administrative hearing if the reinstatement request is denied. Some states allow a license to be voluntarily forfeited in lieu of compliance with an order of the insurance commissioner. In this scenario, a request for voluntary forfeiture of a license should be made in writing to the insurance commissioner. The written consent of the insurance commissioner is usually required. Forfeiture of a license is effective upon submission of the request, unless a contested case proceeding is pending at the time the request is submitted. If a contested case proceeding is pending at the time of the request, the forfeiture becomes effective when and upon such conditions as required by order of the insurance commissioner. A forfeiture made during the pendency of a contested case proceeding is usually considered a disciplinary action subject to reporting to the Regulatory Information Retrieval System (RIRS). ## Collaboration and Referrals Among State Insurance Regulators There are several NAIC tools to facilitate communication about enforcement actions among state insurance regulators. The NAIC's Market Actions (D) Working Group identifies and reviews insurance companies that are exhibiting or may exhibit characteristics indicating a current or potential market regulatory issue that may affect multiple jurisdictions. The Working Group determines if regulatory action should be taken and supports collaborative actions in addressing problems identified."", ""For example, if a DRP holds a life line of authority (LOA) only, and an affiliated producer is authorized to sell property/casualty (P/C) products, it is not necessary for a DRP with a P/C LOA to be named as a second DRP. Model #218 does not give specific guidance on appropriate action to take when a notification is received that the DRP has lost their home state license. A recommended practice is to send a notification to the BE and inform it that the BE license will go inactive unless a new DRP is named and approved within a reasonable number of days. A BE has an ongoing responsibility to report misconduct of the BE or any of its affiliated producers. Section 12(c) of Model #218 states: The license of a BE may be suspended, revoked or refused if the insurance commissioner finds, after hearing, that an individual licensee's violation was known or should have been known by one or more of the partners, officers or managers acting on behalf of the partnership or corporation and the violation was neither reported to the insurance commissioner nor corrective action taken. ## Recommended Best Practices for State Insurance Regulators - · Use the NAIC uniform application for BEs, and eliminate all other state-specific forms. - · Review all state insurance laws and regulations, and amend any that require attachments that might violate reciprocity. - · Review the practical consumer protection value of all information collected, and collect only information that adds value. - · Require only one DRP per BE. - · If appointments are required for a BE, require only one appointment per state, and require no sub-appointments. - · Use electronic filings for more efficiency. ## Chapter 13 ## Temporary Licenses Section 11 of the Producer Licensing Model Act (#218) contains a provision that allows a state insurance director to issue a temporary license to the survivor of a producer if the insurance commissioner deems it necessary for servicing the deceased producer's customers. The license is limited to 180 days and also may be limited in scope by the insurance commissioner.

5218,What are the key components of the system established by the Producer Licensing Model Act?,"[""States are not to impose prelicensing education or an examination on a nonresident producer who subsequently moves into another state and declares it to be the home state, unless 'the commissioner has determined otherwise by regulation.' Under Model #218, letters of certification were eliminated as a prerequisite to granting a nonresident license. The State Producer Licensing Database (SPLD) provides verification of good standing in the producer's home state. One unresolved issue is the long-established practice of requiring a letter of clearance for producers changing their resident state. Despite the fact that Model #218 does not contain any reference to a letter of clearance, some states still require the producer to provide a letter of clearance from the former state before the new state will grant the producer an active resident status. Other states grant the new nonresident license but continue to monitor the producer's record to make sure that the prior resident license changes in status from resident to nonresident. This is done to prevent the producer from holding two active resident licenses. The Working Group and National Insurance Producer Registry (NIPR) have identified this as an issue that could best be resolved by the establishment of an electronic method for the producer to communicate the desired changes to all affected states in one transaction. NIPR's launch of the Contact Change Request (CCR) service allows producers for many states to change their physical addresses, email addresses, phone numbers and fax numbers. The Working Group will turn its attention to solving the issues surrounding a change of resident state once all states have fully implemented the CCR service. ## Commissioner Discretion Model #218 contains language that allows a state to adopt regulations to cover a state-specific situation. The states should carefully consider the impact that deviation from Model #218 might have on NAIC uniformity and reciprocity initiatives. ## Section-by-Section Summary of Model #218 The full text of Model #218 is in the Appendices.

(Product List by State) ## Chapter 2 ## Producer Licensing Model Act ## Uniformity Provisions of the Producer Licensing Model Act Through the Producer Licensing Model Act (#218), the NAIC created a system of reciprocity for producer licensing and established uniform standards in key areas of producer licensing. Model #218 was initially adopted in January 2000. It was subsequently amended in October 2000 and in January 2005. In December 2002, the Producer Licensing (EX) Working Group adopted a set of Uniform Resident Licensing Standards (URLS). In December 2008, the standards were revised and updated to incorporate standardization and uniformity for both resident and nonresident licensing. Therefore, the standards were renamed the Uniform Licensing Standards (ULS). Model #218 and the ULS are designed to complement each other and assist the states in creating a uniform system of producer licensing. In 2008, the Working Group was charged with reviewing the ULS. Subsequent revisions were made to the ULS in August 2010 (limited lines definitions) and in August 2011 (definitions for certain noncore limited lines). The revised standards are included in the Appendix, and updates can be found on the Working Group's web page on the NAIC website. The key uniformity provisions of Model #218 are:"", ""## National Insurance Producer Registry The NAIC has long advocated for increased use of technology to streamline licensing processes. In 1996, the NAIC collaborated with industry to create the Insurance Regulatory Information Network (IRIN) as a nonprofit affiliate of the NAIC. In 1999, the organization changed its name to the National Insurance Producer Registry (NIPR). The purpose of the NIPR is to work with the states and the NAIC to re-engineer, streamline, and make more uniform the producer licensing process for the benefit of state insurance regulators, the insurance industry, and consumers. NIPR worked with the NAIC to develop and implement: 1) the Producer Database (PDB), which includes licensing information from 50 states, Washington, DC and Puerto Rico, utilized by the industry for licensing and appointment information; and 2) the State Producer Licensing Database (SPLD) for use by state insurance regulators. The states use NIPR to link state insurance departments with the entities they regulate. Applicants and licensees can transmit licensing applications, insurers can transmit appointments and terminations, and both can transmit other information to state insurance regulators in multiple states thereby creating electronic solutions that are easy and, efficient to use by the states and industry. Additionally, using the subsequent launch of the Attachment Warehouse, an applicant who answers 'yes' to any background question on the NAIC Uniform application can submit the required supporting documentation at the time he or she is applying for or renewing a license. The submission of a document to the Attachment Warehouse will trigger an email alert to the appropriate state(s) notifying the state(s) that supporting documentation has been submitted to fulfill document requirements pertaining to the 'yes' answer on the background. The advantage to the producer and the state(s) is that the documentation can be sent to the Attachment Warehouse once, and all appropriate states will be notified and have the ability to view, download or print the document. The Attachment Warehouse also allows a producer to meet the requirement from the states to report and submit documentation related to any regulatory action taken against him/her."", ""## Uniform Licensing Standards In 2002, the Producer Licensing (EX) Working Group adopted the Uniform Resident Licensing Standards (URLS). The standards were revised and updated to incorporate standardization and uniformity for both resident and nonresident licensing. The standards were renamed to the Uniform Licensing Standards (ULS) in 2008. These standards will be referenced throughout this Handbook. The full text of the ULS is in the Appendices. The latest information can be found on the Working Group's web page on the NAIC website. These standards establish an important baseline to assure state insurance regulators that all states are applying the same standards to resident applicants. The Working Group monitors compliance with the uniform standards. Since the adoption of the ULS, the Working Group has adopted interpretative guidelines and clarifications to further explain the proper implementation of the ULS. The ULS contain guidelines in the following categories: - 1. Licensing qualifications. - 2. Prelicensing education training. - 3. Producer licensing test. - 4. Integrity/personal qualifications/background checks. - 5. Application for licensure/license structure. - 6. Appointment process. - 7. Continuing Education (CE) Requirements. - 8. Limited lines uniformity. - 9. Surplus lines standards. - 10. Commercial line multistate exemption standard. - 11. Commission sharing. ## Initial and Renewal Producer License Applications The Working Group has adopted initial and renewal NAIC Uniform Applications for resident and nonresident individuals and business entities. Under the ULS, the states are directed to use the Uniform Applications rather than state-specific applications. The Working Group has established a schedule for review and update of the applications. The states are encouraged to use the most current form of the Uniform Applications. The forms are available on the NAIC website. All NIPR online applications use the most recent approved uniform initial and renewal application forms. ## Recommended Best Practices for State Insurance Regulators""]",medium,answer,"The key components of the system established by the Producer Licensing Model Act (#218) include:

437,What are the common routes of exposure to zoonotic diseases?,"['## Employers should adopt the following best practices to reduce allergic responses of workers: - · Eliminate or minimize exposure to the proteins found in animal urine, saliva and dander. - · Limit the chances that workers will inhale or have skin contact with animal proteins by using well-designed air handling and waste management systems. - · Have workers use appropriate PPE (e.g., gloves, gowns, hair covers, respirators) to further minimize their risk of exposure. ## Zoonotic Diseases There are a host of possible infectious agents that can be transferred from animals to humans. These are referred to as zoonotic diseases. The common routes of exposure to infectious agents are inhalation, inoculation, ingestion and contamination of skin and mucous membranes. Inhalation hazards may arise during work practices that can generate aerosols. These include the following: centrifugation, mixing (e.g., blending, vortexing, and sonication), pouring/decanting and spilling/splashing of culture fluids. Inoculation hazards include needlesticks and lacerations from sharp objects. Ingestion hazards include the following: splashes to the mouth, placing contaminated articles/fingers in mouth, consumption of food in the laboratory, and mouth pipetting. Contamination of skin and mucous membranes can occur via splashes or contact with contaminated fomites (e.g., towels, bedclothes, cups, money). Some of the zoonotic diseases that can be acquired from animals are listed below. ## Zoonotic Diseases - Wild and Domesticated Animals Wild rodents and other wild animals may inflict an injury such as a bite or scratch. Workers need to receive training on the correct way to capture and handle any wild animals. While they may carry or shed organisms that may be potentially infectious', ""- · No mouth pipetting; and - · Chemical substitution where feasible (e.g., selecting a less hazardous chemical for a specific procedure). Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is protective gear needed to keep workers safe while performing their jobs. Examples of PPE include respirators (for example, N95), face shields, goggles and disposable gloves. While engineering and administrative controls and proper work practices are considered to be more effective in minimizing exposure to many workplace hazards, the use of PPE is also very important in laboratory settings. It is important that PPE be: - · Selected based upon the hazard to the worker; - · Properly fitted and in some cases periodically refitted (e.g., respirators); - · Conscientiously and properly worn; - · Regularly maintained and replaced in accord with the manufacturer's specifications; - · Properly removed and disposed of to avoid contamination of self, others or the environment; and - · If reusable, properly removed, cleaned, disinfected and stored. The following sections of this document are organized based upon classes of hazards, i.e., chemical, biological, physical, safety and other hazards. The organization of these sections and/or subsections may differ somewhat. For instance, OSHA's Laboratory standard is described in greater detail than any other standard in this document. This is because this is the only standard that is specific to laboratories (i.e., non-production laboratories). In all other sections, only those specific aspects of various standards that are considered most relevant to non-production laboratories are discussed. In sections of this document where there are no specific OSHA standards that apply, guidance in the form of Fact Sheets or QuickCardsTM may be provided. ## Chemical Hazards"", '- · Keep exits free from obstruction. Access to exits must remain clear of obstructions at all times, 29 CFR 1910.37(a)(3). - · Ensure that spills are reported and cleaned up immediately. - · Eliminate cluttered or obstructed work areas. - · Use prudent housekeeping procedures such as using caution signs, cleaning only one side of a passageway at a time, and provide good lighting for all halls and stairwells to help reduce accidents, especially during the night hours. - · Instruct workers to use the handrail on stairs, to avoid undue speed, and to maintain an unobstructed view of the stairs ahead of them even if that means requesting help to manage a bulky load. Problems involving control of hazardous energy require procedural solutions. Employers must adopt such procedural solutions for controlling hazards to ensure worker safety during maintenance. However, such procedures are effective only if strictly enforced. Employers must, therefore, be committed to strict implementation of such procedures. - · Eliminate uneven floor surfaces. - · Promote safe work practices, even in cramped working spaces. - · Avoid awkward positions, and use equipment that makes lifting easier. ## References American Chemical Society, Safety in Academic Chemistry Laboratories. 1990. 5th Edition.

Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office.', ""## Hierarchy of Controls Occupational safety and health professionals use a framework called the 'hierarchy of controls' to select ways of dealing with workplace hazards. The hierarchy of controls prioritizes intervention strategies based on the premise that the best way to control a hazard is to systematically remove it from the workplace, rather than relying on workers to reduce their exposure. The types of measures that may be used to protect laboratory workers, prioritized from the most effective to least effective, are: - · engineering controls; - · administrative controls; - · work practices; and - · personal protective equipment (PPE). Most employers use a combination of control methods. Employers must evaluate their particular workplace to develop a plan for protecting their workers that may combine both immediate actions as well as longer term solutions. A description of each type of control for non-production laboratories follows. Engineering controls are those that involve making changes to the work environment to reduce work-related hazards. These types of controls are preferred over all others because they make permanent changes that reduce exposure to hazards and do not rely on worker behavior. By reducing a hazard in the workplace, engineering controls can be the most cost-effective solutions for employers to implement. ## Examples include: - · Chemical Fume Hoods; and - · Biological Safety Cabinets (BSCs). Administrative controls are those that modify workers' work schedules and tasks in ways that minimize their exposure to workplace hazards. ## Examples include: - · Developing a Chemical Hygiene Plan; and - · Developing Standard Operating Procedures for chemical handling. Work practices are procedures for safe and proper work that are used to reduce the duration, frequency or intensity of exposure to a hazard. When defining safe work practice controls, it is a good idea for the employer to ask workers for their suggestions, since they have firsthand experience with the tasks as actually performed. These controls need to be understood and followed by managers, supervisors and workers. ## Examples include: - · No mouth pipetting; and - · Chemical substitution where feasible (e.g., selecting a less hazardous chemical for a specific procedure).""]",easy,answer,"The common routes of exposure to zoonotic diseases are inhalation, inoculation, ingestion, and contamination of skin and mucous membranes.

This identification light signal must be located so that it does not interfere with the visibility of the vessel's navigation lights. The identification light signal may be used only as an identification signal and conveys no special privilege. Vessels using the identification light signal during public safety activities must abide by the Inland Navigation Rules, and must not presume that the light or the exigency gives them precedence or right of way. - (b) Public safety activities include but are not limited to patrolling marine parades, regattas, or special water celebrations; traffic control; salvage; firefighting; medical assistance; assisting disabled vessels; and search and rescue. ## -INTERNATIONALINTERPRETATIVE RULES 33 CFR 82 ## § 82.1 Purpose This part contains the interpretative rules concerning the 72 COLREGS that are adopted by the Coast Guard for the guidance of the public. ## § 82.3 Pushing vessel and vessel being pushed: Composite unit Rule 24(b) of the 72 COLREGS states that when a pushing vessel and a vessel being pushed ahead are rigidly connected in a composite unit, they are regarded as a power-driven vessel and must exhibit the lights under Rule 23.

Many of the old navigation rules were originally enacted in the 1800's. Occasionally, provisions were added to cope with the increasing complexities of water transportation. Eventually, the navigation rules for United States inland waterways became such a confusing patchwork of requirements that in the 1960's several attempts were made to revise and simplify them. These attempts were not successful. Following the signing of the Convention on the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea, 1972, a new effort was made to unify and update the various inland navigation rules. This effort culminated in the enactment of the Inland Navigational Rules Act of 1980. This legislation sets out Rules 1 through 38 - the main body of the Rules. The five Annexes were published as regulations. It is important to note that with the exception of Annex V to the Inland Rules, the International and Inland Rules and Annexes are very similar in both content and format. The effective date for the Inland Navigation Rules was December 24, 1981, except for the Great Lakes where the effective date was March 1, 1983. On May 17, 2010 the US Coast Guard published a Final Rule which placed the Inland Navigational Rules into the Code of Federal Regulations. This move was in accordance with the Coast Guard and Maritime Transportation Act of 2004, which repealed the Inland Navigation Rules as they appeared in United States Code. This Handbook supersedes Commandant Instruction M16672.2D, Navigation Rules: International-Inland. It maintains the same format and provides additional and updated content.

To be considered in compliance with this requirement, DOT must achieve the following annual waiver reductions specified below: a) in each year where less than 50 percent of AFVs are waived, the OA must reduce the number of waivers requested two percent from the previous year. b) in each year where more than 50 percent of AFVs are waived, the OA must reduce the number of waivers requested 10 percent from the previous year. Finally, pursuant to EISA 2007, Section 246, DOT must install alternative fuel infrastructure, including but not limited to electric vehicle charging stations in fleet refueling centers, where cost-effective, to the maximum extent possible. Alternative fuels for vehicles include, but are not limited to: - i. Blends of 85 percent or more of denatured ethanol, and other alcohols, with gasoline or other fuels (including E85); - ii. Natural gas and liquid fuels domestically produced from natural gas;"", ""transactions, point-of-sale transactions and all transactions resulting from redistribution from tanks/tankers to vehicles. The organization must maintain a detailed record of all transactions that must be available for review/audit upon request. - a. Operators shall use unleaded fuel in vehicles with the minimum grade (octane rating) recommended by the vehicle manufacturer when fueling DOT-owned or leased motor vehicles. Use of premium grade fuel is prohibited unless specifically required by the vehicle manufacturer. - b. Alternative Fuel Policy: DOT policy is that all alternative fuel vehicles must be fueled with alternative fuels E-85 (85 percent ethanol/15 percent gasoline), Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), etc. where fuel is available within 5 miles or 15 minutes of the garage location. EPAct 2005 Section 701 waivers may be granted on a case-by-case basis when alternative fuel is not available or the cost of the alternative fuel is unreasonably more expensive compared with gasoline. The OA Fleet Manager must submit all waivers to the DOT Fleet Manager who will enter them into the Federal Automotive Statistical Tool (FAST) no later than midnight, 30 June of each year, and must be certified by the Assistant Secretary for Administration. For a complete listing of alternative fuel station locations go to: http://www.afdc.energy.gov/locator/stations/. - i. OA Fleet Managers can now prescreen waiver applications by entering vehicle location data into the FAST. The FAST compares this information against the National Renewable Energy Laboratory's (NREL's) fuel station locator to determine the likelihood of waiver approval for that location. Be advised that DOE will not reconsider waiver approval without a detailed description of the request if a waiver approval appears unlikely during prescreening."", ""| Annual Vehicle Acquisition, Petroleum and Alternative Fuels Report to Congress | Summary of activities to meet fleet management requirements | Report of DOT's compliance with fleet requirements for acquisition, petroleum reduction and alternative fuel | Annually, but no later than February 15 for the previous fiscal year | | FAST - 701 Waiver Requests | Waiver from the EISA Section 701 requirement to use alternative fuel in all DOT dual-fuel vehicles i. ii. iii. iv. v. vi. vii. viii. ix. x. | Vehicle type Fuel type Average miles per gallon Model year Vehicle location Number of vehicles Waiver reason Expected miles driven Expected alternative fuel use (percent) OA Fleet Manager provides owned vehicle information | Annually, but no later than June 30 | |----------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | FAST - EISA Section 246 Annual Report | Report summarizing DOT compliance with EISA Section 246 | Federal fleet fueling centers, fuel consumption, renewable fuel pump data; evaluation of compliance with requirement to install renewable fuel pumps OA Fleet Manger provides fuel station information | Annually, but no later than June 30 | | FAST OMB A-11 and VAM Update | Report fleet budget data for all vehicles, owned or leased | Budget estimates of current fiscal year, as well as future fleet operating costs OA Fleet Manager provides owned vehicle information | Annually, OMB A-11 no later than August, VAM update no later than March 31st | | EISA Section 142 Fleet Plan | Revised plan to meet petroleum reduction and alternative fuel increase requirements | Specific and quantifiable means by which DOT will remedy any current shortfall and catch-up to meet the next year's milestone OA Fleet Manger provides input | No later than August 15, if required |""]",easy,answer,A complete listing of alternative fuel station locations can be found at: http://www.afdc.energy.gov/locator/stations/.,4,Alternative fuel resources,False,"[{""type"": ""primary"", ""abbreviatedContent"": ""For a complete listing of alternative fuel station locations go to: http://www.afdc.energy.gov/locator/stations/.""}, {""type"": ""secondary"", ""abbreviatedContent"": ""DOT policy is that all alternative fuel vehicles must be fueled with alternative fuels E-85 (85 percent ethanol/15 percent gasoline), Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), etc. where fuel is available within 5 miles or 15 minutes of the garage location.""}]",,77
4283,Which level is appropriate for work involving respiratory transmission risks?,"['Laboratory workers and supervisors are strongly urged to review this publication directly before engaging in any experimentation. ## Biosafety Level 1 (BSL-1) BSL-1 is appropriate for working with microorganisms that are not known to cause disease in healthy humans. BSL-l practices, safety equipment, and facility design and construction are appropriate for undergraduate and secondary educational training and teaching laboratories, and for other laboratories in which work is done with defined and characterized strains of viable microorganisms not known to consistently cause disease in healthy adult humans. Bacillus subtilis, Naegleria gruberi, infectious canine hepatitis virus, and exempt organisms under the NIH Recombinant DNA Guidelines (http://www4.od.nih.gov/oba/rac/ guidelines/guidelines.html) are representative of microorganisms meeting these criteria. Many agents not ordinarily associated with disease processes in humans are, however, opportunistic pathogens and may cause infection in the young, the aged, and immunodeficient or immunosuppressed individuals. Vaccine strains that have undergone multiple in vivo passages should not be considered avirulent simply because they are vaccine strains. BSL-1 represents a basic level of containment that relies on standard microbiological practices with no special primary or secondary barriers recommended, other than a sink for hand washing. ## Biosafety Level 2 (BSL-2)', '## Biosafety Level 2 (BSL-2) The facility, containment devices, administrative controls, and practices and procedures that constitute BSL-2 are designed to maximize safe working conditions for laboratory personnel working with agents of moderate risk to personnel and the environment. BSL-2 practices, equipment, and facility design and construction are applicable to clinical, diagnostic, teaching, and other laboratories in which work is done with the broad spectrum of indigenous moderate-risk agents that are present in the community and associated with human disease of varying severity. With good microbiological techniques, these agents can be used safely in activities conducted on the open bench, provided the potential for producing splashes or aerosols is low. Hepatitis B virus, H1V, the salmonellae, and Toxoplasma spp. are representative of microorganisms assigned to this containment level. Biosafety Level 2 is also appropriate when work is done with any human-derived blood, body fluids, tissues, or primary human cell lines where the presence of an infectious agent may be unknown. Laboratory personnel in the United States working with human-derived materials should refer to the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Bloodborne Pathogens Standard (OSHA 1991), available online at www.osha.gov/pls/oshaweb/owadisp.show\\_ document?p\\_table=STANDARDS7p\\_id=1005, for required precautions. Primary hazards to personnel working with these agents relate to accidental percutaneous or mucous membrane exposures, or ingestion of infectious materials. Extreme caution should be taken with contaminated needles or sharp instruments. Even though organisms routinely manipulated at Biosafety Level 2 are not known to be transmissible by the aerosol route, procedures with aerosol or high splash potential that may increase the risk of such personnel exposure must be conducted in primary containment equipment, or in devices such as a biological safety cabinet (BSC) or safety centrifuge cups. Personal protective equipment (PPE) should be used as appropriate, such as splash shields, face protection, gowns, and gloves.', 'Personal protective equipment (PPE) should be used as appropriate, such as splash shields, face protection, gowns, and gloves. Secondary barriers such as hand washing sinks and waste decontamination facilities must be available to reduce potential environmental contamination. ## Biosafety Level 3 (BSL-3) BSL-3 is suitable for work with infectious agents which may cause serious or potentially lethal diseases as a result of exposure by the inhalation route. This may apply to clinical, diagnostic, teaching, research, or production facilities in which work is done with indigenous or exotic agents with potential for respiratory transmission, and which may cause serious and potentially lethal infection. Mycobacterium tuberculosis, St. Louis encephalitis virus, and Coxiella burnetti are representative of the microorganisms assigned to this level. Primary hazards to personnel working with these agents relate to autoinoculation, ingestion, and exposure to infectious aerosols. At BSL-3, more emphasis is placed on primary and secondary barriers to protect personnel in contig- uous areas, the community, and the environment from exposure to potentially infectious aerosols. For example, all laboratory manipulations should be performed in a BSC or other enclosed equipment, such as a gas-tight aerosol generation chamber. Secondary barriers for this level include controlled access to the laboratory and ventilation requirements that minimize the release of infectious aerosols from the laboratory. ## Biosafety Level 4 (BSL-4) BSL-4 practices, safety equipment, and facility design and construction are applicable for work with dangerous and exotic agents that pose a high individual risk of life-threatening disease, which may be transmitted via the aerosol route, and for which there is no available vaccine or therapy. Agents with a close or identical antigenic relationship to Biosafety Level 4 agents also should be handled at this level. When sufficient data are obtained, work with these agents may continue at this or at a lower level. Viruses such as Marburg or Congo-Crimean hemorrhagic fever are manipulated at Biosafety Level 4.', '| Class I or II biosafety cabinets (BSCs) or other containment devices used for all agents that cause splashes or aerosols of infec- tious materials Laboratory coats and gloves Face protection as needed | Open bench top sink Autoclave | | BSL-3 | Indigenous or exotic agents with potential for aerosol transmis- sion; disease may have serious or lethal consequences | All BSL-2 practices Controlled access Decontamination of all waste Decontamination of laboratory clothing before laundering Baseline serum | Class I or II BSCs or other physical containment devices used for all open manipulations of agents Protective lab clothing and gloves Respiratory protection as needed | Open bench top sink Autoclave Physical separation from access corridors Self-closing, double- door access Exhaust air not recirculated Negative airflow in laboratory | | BSL-4 | Dangerous/exotic agents which pose high risk of life-threat- ening disease; aero- sol-transmitted lab infections; or related agents with unknown risk of transmission | All BSL-3 practices Clothing change be- fore entering Shower on exit All material decontaminated on exit from facility | All procedures conducted in Class III BSCs, or Class I or II BSCs in combination with full-body, air-supplied, positive pressure personnel suit. | BSL-3 plus: Separate building or isolated zone Dedicated supply and exhaust, vac- uum, and decon- tamination systems Other requirements outlined in the text | NOTE: The following information has been adapted from Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories, 5th Ed.

1647,Identify the populations that require different efforts and resources to improve their health.,"['135 In general, fewer opportunities exist for engaging in health-promoting dietary and physical activity patterns among marginalized populations (e.g., people living in poverty, people of color, LGBTQ, people who have a disability or who live in a rural community, and others who have historically been excluded), thus further increasing health inequities. Strategies aimed at the general population are often less effective among racial/ethnic minority groups and those of low socioeconomic status. Initiatives must address the unique challenges and barriers that certain groups often face when attempting to modify lifestyle behaviors, with culturally appropriate tailoring and equitable support to promote healthy behaviors. Trends in excess body weight among youth are also a significant public health concern; children with obesity are more likely than normal-weight children to become adults with obesity, and their obesity in adulthood is likely to be more severe. 136 Promoting obesity prevention and positive lifestyle behaviors during youth is more effective, and often more successful, than efforts to change unhealthy patterns of behavior in adult populations. 137 Therefore, creating health-promoting and antiobesogenic environments that make it easier for children to establish positive eating and physical activity behaviors early in life are critical. ## Improving Healthy Eating and Active Living-Related Environments Effective strategies are being tested to address healthy ating and active living by numerous organizations that have e reated c evidence-based recommendations, including the WHO, 138 the National Academy of Medicine, 139 the CDC, the WCRF/AICR, and the American Heart Association. 4 140 A consensus among these recommendations is a call for policy and systems change, the identification of key environments to promote change, and the need for multiple sectors to work collaboratively to reduce barriers to healthy eating and active living, particularly among lower income and racial/ethnic minority and rural communities. Thus, health promotion considerations should be incorporated into urban, rural, and regional planning and development. To reduce health-related inequities among specific population groups, communitybased approaches should be adapted to meet the needs of the target community. 139', '158 Ensuring that all individuals have access to affordable, healthy food choices and opportunities for safe physical activity will require multiple strategies and bold action, ranging from the implementation of community, worksite, school, childcare, and other health promotion programs to policies that affect community planning, architecture, transportation, school-based physical education, food advertising and marketing, and food services. Special attention must also be paid to recognizing that individuals and populations with the greatest needs, the least resources, and/or those facing increased and unique burdens and challenges require different, not equal, effort and resources to improve their health. Policies, programs, and services should be explicit about prioritizing these populations to achieve health equity. Public, private, and community organizations at local, state, and national levels should consider the implementation and testing of new policies and the reallocation or expansion of resources to weight management, greater physical activity, and healthful diet choices (including avoidance of alcohol) that will improve health. Health care professionals; school, business, faith group, and other community leaders; and elected officials and policy makers are in unique and critical positions to provide leadership and advocate for purposeful changes in public policy and in community environments that are necessary to help all individuals maintain a healthy body weight and remain physically active throughout life, and to engage community members in the design, implementation, and evaluation of these strategies within the aforementioned sectors. 111 ## Common Questions and Answers This section is intended to assist clinicians, public health professionals, and policymakers in addressing questions that commonly arise within the general public. ## Acrylamide ## What is acrylamide, and is it associated with an increased risk of cancer? Acrylamide is a chemical used in industrial processing and is also found in food and tobacco smoke. Acrylamide in food is formed as a by-product of the Maillard reaction, in which the amino acid asparagine reacts with certain sugars when heated to high temperatures. The major sources of acrylamide in our diets are French fries and potato chips; crackers, bread, and cookies; breakfast cereals; canned black olives; prune juice; and coffee.']",medium,answer,"The populations that require different efforts and resources to improve their health include marginalized groups such as people living in poverty, people of color, LGBTQ individuals, people with disabilities, those living in rural communities, and others who have historically been excluded.

1057,Why might command-and-control measures to restrict antimicrobial use be ineffective in low-income countries?,"[""## Institutions and compliance Changes in institutions may be just as important as improved technology in controlling diseases. Brucellosis in cattle is an example. This zoonotic disease was eradicated in Sweden in the 1950s based on the robust diagnostics available at that time (Cerenius 2010). This was made possible because communal grazing and mixing of herds were limited, engagement in farmers' organizations was strong, and the veterinary authority and service interacted closely with the farmers. These institutional factors made compliance with external biosecurity measures effective. The opposite conditions still apply in many countries where brucellosis is an issue (Plumb et al. 2013). In such cases, where animal productivity is generally low and where the disease is endemic and symptoms vague, farmers may be reluctant to invest in control measures such as vaccination. A lack of compensation for culled animals further increases resistance to control measures. The development and strengthening of institutions, both state and non-state, in such areas are vital to improving control of livestock diseases. Stronger groups of livestock keepers make it easier for government organizations and veterinary services to interact with larger numbers of local people, learn about their opinions and needs, and provide them with the information and services they require. It also makes compliance with disease-control measures more possible (FAO, 2020). ## Monitoring and surveillance Advances in technology are making it possible to detect and respond to livestock diseases more quickly. Improved testing and control have made it possible to eradicate diseases such as bovine brucellosis and porcine pseudorabies in the United States (USDA 2019a, 2019b). For some diseases it is now possible to perform a rapid diagnosis on the farm itself. To be practicable, such tests must be cheap and quick. Currently, some 'pen-side' tests and several basic laboratory tests are in common use in HICs."", '## Use One Health to control zoonotic and food-borne diseases Zoonotic and food-borne diseases are best tackled using a One Health approach. Resources should be allocated where they most reduce the risk of zoonotic and foodborne diseases. Interventions must be based on knowledge of the socio-economic situations of farmers, food business operators and consumers. A combination of crosscompliance and soft law approaches may work best. Improving animal husbandry and welfare is important for reducing the risks of zoonotic and food-borne diseases. Data on the occurrence of food-borne diseases and the disease burden in the human population are crucial to assess the costs and benefits of diseasecontrol measures in the livestock production and processing systems. Postharvest interventions are also required to reduce the risk of the pathogens surviving, multiplying and contaminating food. In HICs, efficient control and monitoring of targeted diseases are needed by well-functioning regulatory bodies using command-and-control, crosscompliance and market approaches. In low-income countries, such approaches are less likely to be useful; there, soft laws in the form of recommendations and guidance will probably be more effective. ## Reduce use of antimicrobials Not all governments have the capacity to impose command-and-control measures to restrict antimicrobial use, and overly harsh regulations could jeopardize the profitability and livelihoods of livestock producers. It also risks pushing antimicrobial use into a poorly regulated black market dominated by sub-standard products that are administered inappropriately. The cross-compliance approach also requires the capacity to enforce regulations, and the market approach relies on consumers demanding food produced without excessive use of antimicrobials. Such approaches will probably work only in HICs. Soft law - guidelines and persuasion - along with education and information, also has a place in HICs, but may be the only realistic option in LMICs. ## Promote animal welfare']",hard,answer,"Command-and-control measures to restrict antimicrobial use might be ineffective in low-income countries due to several reasons.

If a firm elects to conduct an investigation in order to evaluate the existence of reportable information, the 24-hour period begins when the firm has information which reasonably supports the conclusion that its consumer product: - · fails to comply with an applicable consumer product safety rule or voluntary consumer product safety standard upon which the Commission has relied under section 9; - · fails to comply with any other rule, regulation, standard, or ban under the CPSA, or any other Act enforced by the Commission; - · contains a defect which could create a substantial risk of injury to the public; or, - · creates an unreasonable risk of serious injury or death. Thus, a firm could report to the Commission before the conclusion of a reasonably expeditious investigation and evaluation if the reportable information becomes known during the course of the investigation. In lieu of the investigation, the firm may report the information immediately. 13 ## REPORTING PROCEDURES The Commission considers a firm to have knowledge of product safety information when such information is received by an employee or official of the firm who may reasonably be expected to be capable of appreciating the significance of that information. Under ordinary circumstances, five days is the maximum reasonable time for that information to reach the chief executive officer or other official assigned responsibility for complying with the reporting requirements. Weekends and holidays are not counted in that timetable. 16 C.F.R. §§ 1115.11(a) and 1115.14(b). The Commission will evaluate whether and when a firm should have reported. This evaluation will be based, in part, on what a reasonable person, acting under the circumstances, knows about the hazard posed by the product. Thus, a firm shall be deemed to know what it would have known if it had exercised due care in ascertaining the accuracy of complaints or other representations. 16 C.F.R. § 1115.11(b). ## PENALTIES FOR FAILURE TO REPORT', ""Section 15(b) of the CPSA defines responsibilities of manufacturers, importers, distributors, and retailers of consumer products. Each is required to notify the Commission immediately if it obtains information that reasonably supports the conclusion that a product: - 1. fails to comply with a consumer product safety rule or a voluntary consumer product safety standard upon which the Commission has relied under section 9 of the CPSA; - 2. fails to comply with any other rule, regulation, standard, or ban under the CPSA or any other statute enforced by the Commission; - 3. contains a defect which could create a substantial product hazard described in section 15(a)(2) of the CPSA; or - 4. creates an unreasonable risk of serious injury or death. The Commission's interpretative regulation (16 C.F.R. part 1115) explains the firm's obligations and those of the Commission. A copy of the regulation can be found at: http://www.cpsc.gov/BUSINFO/frnotices/fr06/E611758.pdf. ## Firms may report under section 15 online at: https://www.saferproducts.gov/CPSRMSpublic/Section15. ## REPORTING PRODUCTS INVOLVED IN LAWSUITS In addition to the reporting requirements at 15 U.S.C. § 2064(b), section 37 of the CPSA, 15 U.S.C. § 2084, requires manufacturers (including importers) of a consumer product to report to the Commission, if: - 1. a particular model of a consumer product is the subject of at least three civil actions that have been filed in federal or state court; - 2. each lawsuit alleges the involvement of that model in death or grievous bodily injury (as defined in § 37(e)(1)); - 3. at least three of the actions result in a final settlement involving the manufacturer or in a judgment for the plaintiff within any one of the two-year periods specified in section 37(b)."", ""attempt to prevent through its own efforts, such as information and education programs, safety labeling, and adoption of product safety standards. Although the CPSC relies on sources other than firm reports to identify substantial product hazards, reporting by companies under the reporting provisions is invaluable because firms often learn of product safety problems long before the Commission. For this reason, any firm involved in the manufacture, importation, distribution, or sale of consumer products should develop a system of reviewing and maintaining consumer complaints, inquiries, product liability suits, and comments on the products they handle. If a firm reports to the Commission under section 15 of the CPSA, it does not necessarily mean that a substantial product hazard exists. Section 15 requires firms to report whenever a product: (1) fails to comply with an applicable consumer product safety rule or with a voluntary consumer product safety standard upon which the Commission has relied under section 9; (2) fails to comply with any other rule, regulation, standard, or ban under the CPSA or any other Act enforced by the Commission; (3) contains a defect that could create a substantial product hazard; or (4) creates an unreasonable risk of serious injury or death. Thus, a product need not actually create a substantial product hazard to trigger the reporting requirement. ## WHEN TO REPORT UNDER SECTION 15 OF THE CPSA It is the Commission's view that a firm should take the all-important first step of notifying the Commission when the information available to the firm reasonably indicates that a report is required. It is in the firm's best interest to assign the responsibility of reporting to someone in executive authority. A firm should report immediately (within 24 hours) after a firm has obtained information which reasonably supports the conclusion that its consumer product: - · fails to comply with an applicable consumer product safety rule or voluntary consumer product safety standard upon which the Commission has relied under section 9; - · fails to comply with any other rule, regulation, standard, or ban under the CPSA, or any other Act enforced by the Commission; - · contains a defect which could create a substantial risk of injury to the public; or, - · creates an unreasonable risk of serious injury or death."", ""§ 1015.18(c), the following information must be included with the request for exemption: - 2. state whether the information claimed to be confidential has ever been released in any manner to a person who was not an employee or in a confidential relationship with the firm; - 1. identify specifically the exact portion(s) of the document claimed to be confidential; - 3. state whether the information so specified is known commonly within the industry or is readily ascertainable by outside persons with a minimum of time and effort; - confidentiality on behalf of the person or organization concerned. - 4. state how release of the information so specified would be likely to cause substantial harm to the firm's competitive position; and 5. state whether the submitter is authorized to make claims of If the Commission determines that information marked as confidential may be disclosed because it is not confidential, the Commission must provide written notice that it intends to disclose this information, 15 U.S.C. § 2055(a)(5).

Any person receiving such notice may bring an action in an appropriate district court to prevent disclosure of the information, 15 U.S.C. § 2055(a)(6). The Commission's regulations under the Freedom of Information Act, 16 C.F.R. § 1015, govern confidential treatment of requests for exportation of violative products that have claimed trade secret or confidential commercial or financial information. In addition, section 6(b) of the CPSA, 15 U.S.C. § 2055(b), also provides limitations on the Commission's disclosure of any information identifying manufacturers or private labelers, and further limits the Commission's disclosure of information received under section 15(b) of the CPSA, 15 U.S.C. § 2055(b)(5). ## CONFIDENTIALITY OF REPORTS UNDER SECTION 15(b) OF THE CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY ACT (CPSA)""]",medium,answer,"The consequences of not adhering to the specified timeframes for reporting are not explicitly detailed in the provided context.
