NAC618.6337. Acceptance of federal variance.

If the Federal Government has granted an employer a variance from a federal standard which applies to the employer’s operations in more than one state and the standard is identical to a Nevada standard, the Administrator will accept the federal variance as an authoritative interpretation determining the employer’s obligation to comply with the Nevada standard if:

     1. The employer files the information required for an application for a variance; and

     2. The Administrator finds that there is no objection of substance to the interpretation.
