In recent years, public health researchers and historians have critically examined industry-sponsored research and its role in influencing scientific knowledge, discourse, and regulatory decision making.1–3 This article examines occupational health research on arsenic conducted by the American Smelting and Refining Company (ASARCO) and its relationship to the decision-making process for the arsenic standard set by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). ASARCO owned and operated a copper smelter near Tacoma, Washington, that was the only producer of arsenic trioxide in the U.S. when the OSHA standard-setting process began in the mid-1970s. ASARCO, at that time, was “. . . the world’s largest processor of non-ferrous metals.”4 The Tacoma Smelter was at the center of federal efforts to regulate arsenic in the workplace as well as the environment.
