- C. Abatement periods will generally be longer for a public employer. - 2. The closing conference will be as outlined in private employers. During the closing conference, the CSHO should explain the availability of consultation staff to assist the employer in meeting these requirements. - 3. In determining abatement dates, the CSHO and DM should consider such facts as budget restrictions and delays in purchasing through competitive bids. Any hazard, which a public employer can show evidence, has been recognized through the employer's own program, and corrective action has been taken, or abatement is in progress; will be noted by the CSHO. These items will be included on the citation; however, abatement dates provided by the employer will be accepted if they are not totally out of line with normally established abatement dates for public employers. This should be explained at both the opening and closing conference. - 4. Scheduling of public sector inspections will include all of those areas covered in the private sector. This includes responding to complaints, charges of discrimination, catastrophe, and/or fatality investigations. In addition, the DM will schedule some random inspections in public agencies through the use of a strategic targeting plan. Particular attention will be given in scheduling to those employers who are not meeting NV OSHA criteria. Past monitoring data will be used to determine these employers. Scheduling will be such that approximately 5% of the total inspections in a district will be conducted in public agencies; this is only a goal. It is recognized that district offices do not schedule complaints and accident investigations, which may vary the percentage. - 5. The same procedure used for private employers in issuing citations and requiring abatement will be used for public employers. ## 4. NEVADA REVISED STATUTES, CHAPTER 618 - a.
