General-duty citation text

HAR 12-60-2(a)(1) was violated because:
The employer did not designate a person to observe the clearance between
the boom of the National Series
800C truck-mounted telescoping boom crane and a 7200 volt overhead power
line, and warn the crane operator
if the boom approached the minimum required clearance distance.  This
practice is required by the crane
manufacturer and by ANSI/ASME B30.5-2004, the American National Standard
Safety Standard for Mobile
and Locomotive Cranes.  As a result, the boom made contact with the line,
leading to the death by electrocution
of an employee who contacted the energized crane hook.
12-60-2(a)(1) states "Every employer shall comply with the state laws,
standards, and rules regarding a safe
place of employment and safe practices, and shall do everything reasonable
and necessary to protect the life,
safety, and health of the employees."
