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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

Willful Gravity 03 1 instance 12 exposed
Issued
May 8, 1992
Abate by
Nov 15, 1992
Penalty
Initial $25,000 · Current $15,000 Reduced
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 working conditions and recoginized hazards of being overcome by toxic
gas and/or oxygen deficient atmospheres while entering into and working
inside of tanks:
(a)  Rubber Department, Vacuum Tank 3, employees enter and work inside
the tank without following proper confined space entry procedures.
This subjects the employees to the hazards of being asphyxiated due
to lack of oxygen or being overcome by toxic air contaminants.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method
to correct this hazard is to establish and enforce adequate confined
space entry procedures, such as those stipulated by ANSI Z117.1-1989.
These procedures include developing a program that includes a permit
system, atmospheric testing, an assigned attendant who keeps constant
direct communication during the time the employee is inside the
confined space, a program of isolation and lockout, emergency response
procedures including rescue equipment such as harnesses and lifelines,
and training of employees required to enter the confined space and
training of standby attendants.
