Hazardous substances 1290

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 Chembond 3501, Liquid Phenol Formaldehyde Resin (glue),
which can result
in skin rashes (dermatitis) and sensitization.
(a).Billet Production Area - In, around, and under the strander lines.
Employees were
exposed to the hazard of liquid phenol formaldehyde resin. Exposure to
contact is
greatest when employees clean the glue screens.
General methods of engineering, work practice or administrative controls
applicable in
this circumstance, include, but are not limited to:
(1).  Increase the thickness of the strands from the present 1/8 inch to
1/6 inch.
(2).  Orientate the glue screen drum in a more effective position
eliminating build up of
waste material on the drum.
(3).  Redesign the shoot above the glue screen so that waste material
falls directly into
a cart or onto a platform where a rake or similar device could be used to
remove the
material instead of manually.
Step 1
A written detailed plan of abatement shall be submitted to the Area
Director outlining a schedule
for the implementation of engineering, work practice and/or administrative
measures to control
employee exposure and contact to the resin (glue) as referenced in this
citation.  This plan shall
include, at a minimum, target dates for the following actions which must
be consistent with the
dates required by this citation:
(1)  Evaluation of engineering control options;
(2)  Selection of optimum control method and completion of design;
(3)  Procurement, installation and operation of selected control measure;
(4)  Testing and acceptance or modification/redesign of controls.
Step 2
Abatement shall have been completed by the implementation of feasible
engineering work
practice and/or administrative controls upon verification of their
effectiveness in achieving
compliance.
Possible health effects from exposure and contact with the resin (glue)
include dermatitis, and
possible tissue destruction or burns.  General methods of control
applicable in this circumstance
are listed above, however other methods of abatement may be equally or
more appropriate.
Ultimate responsibility for determining the most appropriate abatement
rests with the employer
given its superior knowledge of the specific conditions at the worksite.s
