Final answer:

The statement that a Bloodborne Pathogens Exposure Control Plan should be posted in a visible location is not true. Instead, it must identify potential job exposures, specify protective measures, and outline procedures for exposure incidents.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that is not true about a Bloodborne Pathogens Exposure Control Plan is C) It should be posted in a visible location. Typically, these plans need to be accessible to all employees, particularly those in roles with potential exposure, but they are not required to be visibly posted like some other workplace notices might be. The plan should indeed identify job classifications where employees might be exposed (A), specify protective measures to reduce or eliminate exposure risks (B), and outline procedures for exposure incidents (D) such as appropriate responses to spills, exposures, and how to report an incident. In handling Biosafety Level 2 (BSL-2) pathogens, additional safety practices include implementing biohazard warning signage, using proper personal protective equipment, and employing specific decontamination and waste disposal procedures.
