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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

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 fire and/or explosion hazards:
A.Maintenance Area:  Two gas fired heaters were used to heat parts for
maintenance purposes. The
natural gas supply came in over the department in a two inch black pipe. A
hose had been attached to
the pipe that was approximately 25 feet long. The hose led down to a
splitter. One hose was 14 feet
long and it led to the heater at the entrance to the department; the hose
was run behind a desk and
equipment. The second hose was 20 feet long and led to the heater at the
back of the department.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct this hazard is:
Install hard-piping, flexible hose and shut-off devices in accordance with
the National Fire Protection
Association standard 54, National Fuel Gas Code.
B.Flammable Storage Room:  The door connecting the Paint Bay to the
Flammable Storage Room did
not move freely or with a reasonable amount of force. It was left open
during the work shift.  Also,
the Flammable Storage Room was not provided with continous mechanical
ventilation.  Class 1
flammable liquids were dispensed in the room.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct this hazard is:
Ensure that the access door is in proper working order and is self-closing
and maintain continuous
ventilation in the room.
