Aviation Safety：OSHA & EPA

Aviation Safety：OSHA & EPA

The Administrative Procedure Act sets the rules on how a regulatory agency such as the Federal Aviation Administration, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) turns law into the regulations that dictate much of what we do in aviation.

When you are working in the field of aviation safety it is important to understand the differences between the various governing agencies and know which agency provides oversight for the various components of aviation operations.

Research and explain the differences between OSHA and the EPA and their relevancy to aviation safety, and discuss the economic impact these organizations have on the aviation industry.

For your paper, please cite some examples. You must have a title page and at least two references.
