What this inspection record means

OSHA opens inspections for many reasons — routine scheduling under a national or local emphasis program, an employee complaint or referral, or a follow-up after a reported injury. Opening or conducting an inspection is not itself an allegation or a finding that this employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

Initial $810 · Current $810
Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: The
employer did not furnish employment and a place of employment which were
free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death
or serious physical harm to employees in that employees were exposed to:
a) On or about November 23, 1989 employees working in boiler 4 building
basement were exposed to the hazard of flying metal and steam burns
created by the blowout of an undersized relief valve which was
located between turbine discharge exhaust and the first main stop
valve on the exhaust discharge side of turbine No. 1.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct this hazard is to upgrade the size of the existing turbine
exhaust outlet relief valve for the No. 1 feed water pump and to conform
with standard recommended engineering requirements of the most recent
A.S.M.E. boiler and pressure vessel code, section VIII; in accordance
with requirements of paragraphs UG-125 through UG-134.

Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: The
employer did not furnish employment and a place of employment which were
free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death
or serious physical harm to employees in that employees were exposed to:
a) On or about November 23, 1989 employees working in boiler 4 building
basement were exposed to the potential hazard of flying metal and
steam burns due to the absence of a required relief valve located
between turbine exhaust discharge and the first main stop valve on
the exhaust discharge side of turbine No. 4.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct this hazard is to install a properly rated relief valve in the
system between turbine exhaust discharge and the first main stop valve
on the exhaust discharge side of turbine No. 4 and to conform with
standard recommended engineering requirements.
