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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

Serious Gravity 02 1 instance 22 exposed
Issued

Abate by
Aug 24, 1994
Penalty
Initial $600 · Current $300 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 the hazard of inadvertent admixture of the spent
acid and cyanide
waste and the adjacent storage hydrogen peroxide.
(a) Plating Area: Hydrogen peroxide was stored adjacent to the acid and
cyanide
waste, which could result in inadvertent intermixture.  A mixture of these
chemicals could
result in employees being exposed to a build-up of hydrogen cyanide gas.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct this hazard
is to  physically separate the hydrogen peroxide to an area away from the
waste tanks.
