- Associate Professor of Public Health Law, Department of Environmental and Industrial Health, University of Michigan. Dr. Oleinick was the principal project officer in the preparation of the Carter Administration's proposed rule for the identification and labelling of hazardous chemicals in the workplace (46 Fed. Reg. 4412 (1981)). Substantial portions of the proposed rule were incorporated into the hazard communication regulation finally promulgated by the Reagan Administration (48 Fed. Reg. 53780 (1983))(codified at 29 C.F.R. §1910.1200 (1986)).
