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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

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:
Plating Room:  Drums and bags of cyanides and acids were stored
and dispensed on the same pallet and gallon containers of acid
and cyanide containing products were stored on the same shelf.
In the event of a fire or other accidental circumstance, the
acids and cyanides could mix, exposing employees to hydrogen
cyanide gas.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement
method to correct the hazard is the designation and use of
separate storage areas for acids and cyanides.
