General-duty citation text
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 condition(s) listed below: Lamesa Cotton Oil Mill, 800 SE 8th St., Lamesa, TX. For the period of time up to and including 01/23/01, the employer did not maintain pressure and temperature gauges in an operable condition throughout the facility. Gauges that would alert employees working in specific hazardous areas of the facility were damaged or unreadable. These gauges give maintenance personnel information while in the facility and away from the main computer controls. This exposed employees to the hazards and injuries related to the over charging of lines or the sudden release of hexane, hot oil, or steam. Instances: a) Pressure gauge on 1st stage outlet, indicator needle missing. b) Temperature gauge #20 had a cracked glass/plastic cover. c) Temperature gauge #15 had a cracked glass/plastic cover.plastic
