Safe hoist drift

I am hoping to find some documentation as for the maximum hoist drift allowed. All I can find is that an "excessive amount is not allowed". I know what I been going by for years but would like to confirm it.

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
