Your May 18 letter to Mr. Jim Knorpp, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Area Director for Fort Worth, was forwarded to this office for response. I apologize for the delay in replying to your inquiry as to OSHA's interpretations of the terms certified and qualified as used in ANSI standards for aerial lifts.
Whether it's the Indianapolis 500 or a race at a local dirt track, pole position is exactly where every race car driver wants to be. The term comes from horse racing, where the number one horse starts on the inside of the first row next to the inside pole. In car racing, a driver in pole position â called the pole sitter â starts the race in the first row in the inside lane. The pole sitter starts the race at the front of the pack and doesn't have to fight his or her way through traffic to get to first place.
Pole work For Jumping. Poles are used to help the horse approach the fence with balance and control, they can also be used to encourage the horse to place the exact number of strides between fences and to encourage the horse to land on the correct canter lead.
