Safety Board Updates Grammar Rules, Changes Address

## Summary

The Chemical Safety Board is updating its internal rules to make them clearer, easier to read, and better aligned with its mission. These changes affect how meetings are run, including quorum rules and public meeting timing, and update the Board’s address. The new rules kick in on January 26, 2026, with no extra costs involved—just smoother operations ahead!

## Abstract

The U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board ("CSB") is amending regulations relating to its CSB's internal organization, management, and operations. These amendments make grammatical and stylistic updates to current CSB internal regulations in order to improve their function and better reflect the CSB's mission. The amendments also clarify procedures involving quorum and public meetings. Finally, the amendments update the current address of the CSB.

## Effects PRIA read

- More public CSB meetings, virtual ok: benefit, low. The CSB must schedule at least four public meetings each year, and those meetings may be held in person or virtually. This change becomes effective January 26, 2026.
- Faster public consideration of items: benefit, low. When a Board member calendars a notation item, the Board must consider that calendared item at a public meeting within 60 days of calendaring. This shortens the deadline from the prior 90-day standard.
- Agenda posting rule changed: mixed, low. The rule removes a two-day requirement for publishing public meeting agenda information and instead makes the Chairperson responsible for posting agenda-related material appropriate for public release on the CSB website.
- CSB lists safety videos and products: benefit, low. The CSB's functions section now explicitly lists that it issues safety videos and other safety products and makes them available to the public.
- No significant small business impact: benefit, low. The CSB certifies under the Regulatory Flexibility Act that these amendments will not have a significant impact on small business entities.
- CSB office location removed: mixed, low. The CSB removed the regulation that listed an office location because the agency does not currently occupy a physical office, though it may in the future.
