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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.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 being struck by two (2) unsecured compressed gas cylinders.
The two (2) cylinders
were not secured to prevent them from being knocked over, on or about
6-16-2004.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct this hazard is
to:
1.Follow the Compressed Gas Association Pamphlet P-1-1965, and in that
section
3.4.4 states before using cylinders, be sure it is properly supported to
prevent it
from being knocked over.
2.Use a suitable cylinder truck, chain or other steadying device to keep
cylinders
from being knocked over.
