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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.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 crushing hazards associated with performing work
underneath inadequately
supported loads:
Madaket Marine:  On or about June 20, 2002 employees were working under a
17-foot boat that
was supported exclusively with boat stands to support the load of the
boat. The boat stands have
not been load rated for the supporting of loads.
Industry practice is to support the weight of the boat on wooden blocks
placed under the
centerline of the boat, and the boat stands are used to stabilize and
balance the boat on wood
blocks. Boat stands are only used to properly stabilize the boat on the
wood blocks placed under
the centerline.
Among other methods of control, one feasible and acceptable method is to
establish a standard
operating procedure for the support of boats prior to storage or
performance of work.  This
procedure would include, but not be limited to:
1) ensuring boats are properly positioned when mounted onto the stands.
2) Forbidding the use of boat stands as the sole means of support at any
time and under any
circumstances.
3) Following the manufacturer's recommended number of supports per unit
length of boat hull.
4) Placing appropriate-sized sheets of plywood under the boat stands when
the ground is of a
consistency that it can be displaced.
5) Properly leveling all boats on boat stands.
6) Following all other requirements and recommendations from the
manufacturers of this
equipment which will minimize the potential for employee injury.
