QUALIFICATIONS
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Normal practice is to have the Contractor
hire 1 independent Industrial Hygienist
(Contractor's Designated IH) to perform all required
functions. However, some applicable laws forbid
this approach and will dictate when the Contractor's
Designated IH, the Contracting Officer's Designated
IH or both will be required to perform the function
involved. However, the Contractor will always hire
an IH.
Check federal, state, and local requirements for
qualifications and experience of the Contractor's
Designated IH, Designated Competent Person,
supervisor, and workers. Check customer
requirements. Edit this paragraph accordingly.
