PaulSmithTek:I am still here, right! I can handle Critisim. But what ever. I appologize that I type so fast and my brain, works faster then my hands. I will slow down so people can understand what I am saying.
Thanks for the feed back.
DeepSeaDan:The regulations in Ontario levelled the playing field, & Site Inspectors for the Ministry of Labour are out in force to insure compliance.
The States should be as lucky.
lairdb:In other words, the government stepped in (at the behest of the larger commercial operators) and regulated what had previously been a free market, unilaterally driving the smaller businesses out of existence and increasing costs for everyone?
yeah we have that nowDeepSeaDan:...they standardized commercial diving operations by creating minimum standards for personnel, equipment & other parameters, to insure a safe workplace for the working diver, thus eliminating those operators who cut corners, used unsafe working practices, hired unqualified personnel & used shoddy equipment...all in the name of profit.
...Who would you rather work for, mate?
Best,

Diesel298:yeah we have that now

DeepSeaDan:...I can't say if the OSHA regs. go far enough with respect to working diving, I'd have to dive a little deeper into the document to decide...
