    Aloha OSHA? By Jordan Barab, Confined Space
    Just over a year ago, I wrote a story about Hawaii Republican governor Linda Lingle's vision of Hawaii OSHA, as related in a speech to the Hawaii Camber of Commerce:

    HIOSH (Hawaii OSHA) will soon send warning letters to businesses, without citations, and will no longer be an enforcement agency, but instead become a "consultation" agency, Lingle said.


    Well Lingle's dream may be coming true and even federal OSHA is (or was) a bit concerned.
