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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.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 softening
materials used to protect the suspended wire rope cables were not adequate
to prevent the wire
rope from being cut, abraded, or otherwise damaged and such materials were
missing in some
locations.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct this hazard
would be to provide properly engineered materials to protect wire rope
cables from being cut
through by sharp edged bridge sole plates with consideration given to the
loading of the cables.
