118+ combustible dust related fires and explosions in the manufacturing, utility, and non-manufacturing sectors.

OSHA Combustible Dust National Emphasis (NEP) program is not required in nearly half of the states with State OSHA Plans (strictly voluntary). That's only the tip of the iceberg, especially over the past year, where explosions and fires are occurring at facilities with dozens of NAICS not listed in the NEP.
