Does anybody have a copy of the 359???

Which standard is that?

ANSI/ASSE Z359, the national voluntary consensus fall protection equipment standard for general industry, is considered a benchmark standard, one that has been incorporated into many industrial fall protection programs.

To me this stuff is all such a crock. These are the standards that we are required to conform to, however they are not available to us!! You have to buy them for something like $500. If ANSI and OSHA want us to be safe and follow their standards why wouldn't they give them to us?? Im sure every tree guy out there ponies up $500!!
